Re: Led Zeppelin and the Holy Grail DVD

[kismetyu@xxxxxxxxxx]

I had a thought about merging the GM audio with the Condor video, too.
The audio would have been my DVD-[tisdu] version of the GM May 25 Earls
Court show, which is really BIG sound.

But I decided against it due to the fact that the Condor being in mono
is like a red rag to the [tisdu] bull. The Condor source sound HAD to be
[tisdu]'d, no buts about it.

And yes, it came out roaring. With a whole lotta bass in there, too.

The resulting set is already trading around [tisdu] cognoscenti.

Regards to all, Michael
