7/21/73

["Steve Zieger" <ledzep@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Badgies,

I just finished listening to 7/21/73 (aka LZ Rider/LZ Rhoder). This
has to be one of the great unsung Zep shows. It combines the technical
brilliance  of the Spring '73 European tour with the passionate playing
of Japan '71. The band is able to overcome some
early rowdiness from the crowd, which apparently was too similar to
the previous nights troubles up the road in Boston too ignore, and puts on a
phenomenal performance. If this was the show that became TSRTS no one
would have ever doubted Zep's onstage prowess. Of course, Robert's pants
would still have been too tight, but that's another thread.

Check it out.
