Led Zep/ELP Fantasy Concert Concept Bootleg album



I really need your help, guys.  I have been toying and researching and
working on this idea for almost a year, now.  I just started listening
to and researching different boots from both bands to create a fantasy
concert that takes place in 1974.  As we all know this never really
happened, but I've always thought it would have been one of the most
incredible concerts in the world, and I kinda hope to prove that with
this fantasy concert.  What I need help with, mainly, is the set list.
I do have one, but...

Now, I can grab songs up to the Houses of the Holy era for Zep and up
to the Brain Salad Surgery era for ELP.  I should have come to y'all
earlier (like, when I first got the idea), but I didn't, only
informing Planet Zeppelin.  Now I realize that was a mistake, because
I don't think there are any by-or-before-1974 ELP bootlegs with a
couple of the ELP songs listed on the track listing I put together
(namely Bitches Crystal).  Here is the link to the thread I started on
PZ.  You'll have to register, of course, if you want to leave your
comments there (which I wouldn't mind, to be honest):

----------------------------------------------------

For posterity reasons and to give this a sort of "real" feeling, I
don't want this to sound like an A+ Audience or a Soundboard.  I want
it to be an average Audience, but many of the ELP boots are just
beyond Average, so my greater challenge will be finding '73 and '75
Led Zep recordings that match (or come close enough to matching that
the difference is hard to tell) the sound quality of the ELP boots.  I
need help because I'd like to be told where to look for everything so
I can pull it all together, plus, if I could get help in putting it
all together, that would be awesome.  I'm starting to think, as a
one-man project, this is going to be extremely hard.

After that I'm gonna have to do overdubbings in the majority of the
songs to make it sound like both bands are playing all the songs.  I
don't see this project being finished for a very, very long time (2+/-
years at the least).  I also have to create artwork, pictures,
reviews, and even, maybe, a mock written interview or two with both
bands (if only I could find people who can do incredible jobs at all
the speaking voices of both bands and create an audio interview), and
it'd be so cool to include warm-ups, but that may be pushing it... :D

Please leave any thoughts.  And, again, I wouldn't mind y'all
registering at PZ to leave your thoughts there, too if you wanted...
but I need help with this at this point.
