Re: How Many More Mellotrons

Here's a link to Led Zeppelin doing "Thank You" live in 1973. You can hear JPJ checking the pitch before going nuts on the Mellotron, which is mixed way up front in this recording. The sound is awesome. _http://www.bigomag.com/MP3/LZsouth/LZsouth204.mp3_ (http://www.bigomag.com/MP3/LZsouth/LZsouth204.mp3) Frank Hell, here's the whole show. Right click on the files to save them.

For the past month or so, Led Zeppelin fans have been rejoicing with the "discovery" of a new live recording of the group. Google News reported: "Creating more excitement is the Led Zeppelin show from 1973 recorded professionally and mixed via multi-tracks from a show in Southampton, UK. It has already been released by two Japanese bootleg labels, Empress Valley [Live At Southampton University: Working Tapes] and Nasty Music [The Great Lost Live Album]. And at least three fans have taken the original share from the Presence site to offer their own fan "remaster" of this new show." Thanks to theface07 who shared the lossless soundboard tracks on the internet. In the notes accompanying the tracks, theface07 said: "This incredible recording was supposedly taken direct from the multi-track master tape. Therefore, this would be the 1st generation stereo mixdown if correct. I believe this to be true given the sound quality of the recording. This is also the complete show which is rare in soundboard quality. I took the opportunity to remaster the recording because I thought it could benefit from a few small adjustments. Firstly, there is a muddiness to the source which comes from low-mid frequencies. This has been adjusted. Secondly, the levels flucuate from track to track on the source. I have remedied this issue. I have also used some light compression to get a more balanced, crisp sound. What is produced, as a result of these edits, is, in my opinion, a superior sounding recording. I hope you agree! No limiting or noise reduction of any kind has been used. Enjoy this new classic Zeppelin performance!" Theface07 was a bit modest when describing the sound: "Would've been A+ if not for some light-moderate hiss that is mostly audible only during quiet sections." Many fans would consider the sound to be excellent. With news that Led Zeppelin are reforming for a one-off charity gig, whet your appetite with this excellent show.
