Re: Nech and his new tapes

[Nech <tytlane@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

#1... the provider of the tapes wishes to remain anonymous. But does 
want the music to get out there and be shared. I thank them for their 
trusting me with their tapes and generosity.

I quote...

"Both the Zep 75 and Plant 83 shows should be listened to well before 
deciding,  but when I got them, I was told they were masters. I highly 
doubt this Nech but maybe a good ear with some great equipment, can tell 
better than me. The sound quality of both show's is decent and 
definately from Van. I'm actually hoping , master or not, that the Zep 
show is indeed the 20th.and a complete 20th. Not a mix of 19 and 20 as 
has been reported about  the flacs that are out there. It is however 
possible that it is indeed another 19th .Here's to hoping it's not."


the list of tapes I recieved...

Van Mar 19 or 20 75 double
Plant  Oct. 1 83 double
Zep BBC 69 and 71 two different sources   double
Part of "Listen To This Eddie"
Page / Plant  San Jose May 95 Radio Broadcast ( I taped this one myself )

So obviously I have my work cut out for me both in transferring these 
bad boys and then paying careful attention to what they sound like and 
their contents.  Some of the tapes had song titles on them and the one 
labelled "2nd show" for vancouver ends with Heartbreaker so I am hoping 
it is the full show. 

So first plan is to get whatever existing copies of 3/19 & 3/20  are 
out there, utilize the RO threads on the datesand whatever reviews I can 
find on UU CMR etc and hopefully be able to correctly date it and then 
see if this is a new source(s)

Coincidently the Plant 10/1/83 date is once again Vancouver ... a like 
things that have a pattern. 2 diff aud tapes from the same 'taper' same 
location...

Don't hold your breaths folks as I am already far behind on another 
project for SAJ, sorry Steve.  Plus I'm mired down with fam life with 
the kids still out of school on vaca and the Holidays still in full 
swing for me ( You gotta remember I got "round 2" of Christmas coming up 
) and also we must not forget to celebrate JPJ's & Jimmy's upcoming 
birthdays....

YOU DO REMEMBER THOSE?!?!?!?!   Jan 3 & 9th ...mark them down... JPJ 
turns 63 this year, whilst our grey haired wizard  a mighty 65.   hmmm 
retirement age... nah, must keep up hope ...


But, to say the least, I am NOT stuck in the past. I am NOT a Plant Page 
or Jones apologist or antagonist....

I am a Led Zeppelin fan, and always on the hunt for something 
anything... YOU NEVER KNOW!!!

Before I go I hope to someday hear Carnegie and an MSG sbd...warts and all.
