![[LIVE] : ONE ลุมพินี 78 | คู่เอก "ปกรณ์ vs ฟาบิโอ"](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LSOmgl0Th2c/mqdefault.jpg)
Saw the band live on 6/23/77 at the LA Forum. To this day, the best concert I've ever seen!
The Badgeholders show was a hot ticket, and their last week at the Forum was legendary. And final.
@@Sinnsonido I remember scalping our tickets from Troy Ticket Agency. This was the night a very drunk Keith Moon came out and played with the band. About ten of us from the High School football and baseball team went to the concert. We were 17 and I’ll never forget it. A year earlier I went to my very first concert at 16 at the Forum. It was KISS and I was instantly “hooked” on live concerts. Moon would die in ‘78 and Bonham the next year. Lucky to be able to say, I saw them both....
+1 on that Presence you chose..one of my favourites and the rip is absolutely knock out that you did..
That was a great wealth of info. I'm always on the lookout for Zep. Thanks!
Thank you Patrick; always love these videos ~Peace
Found another LZ II RL this week!
I sent you the UK plum of LZ III to rip a few years ago Patrick. Thanks for your great work, i enjoy many of your rips!
Thanks Patrick. Lots of good information. I don't have any of the pressings you've shown but I noticed my box set of 'How the West was Won' sounds pretty good. Very quiet and very good SQ. Greg
Wow this is one informative video. I am fairly ignorant to most of this information. I definitely need to go back to school. Thanks for all this help!
Thanks a lot for your opinion and video, really helps a lot to pick the right one. A video like this would be great about Dire Straits, Deep Purple, Pink Floyd just as well. Cheers! and take care
Great video! I actually hoped you would make a video like this because I am intrigued about your opinion on the best sounding pressings. Thanks for covering LZ first! Good to know that you don’t have to spend a fortune for the best pressings. -Russ
Excellent. Thanks!
Common West German pressings of LZ II from the ‘70s use the RL cut for one of the sides. I’ve heard of people finding double RL German pressings but those are pretty rare, methinks.
Best Zep video in the VC! ✌🏻😎👍🏻
Thanks for the kind words
Awesome video. Thank you, P.
Patrick great Led Zeppelin info I’m still after a Led Zeppelin 1 I’m definitely going to look for a clean copy thanks for the info . Presence is another one I have to seek out . Love your choices Patrick truly noted I totally agree with you on Led Zep 2 I had Classic and Mofi the RL wins big time I sold the other two 🥂👍.
I wonder why the Houses of the holy A1 B1 is not listed on Discogs? Any thoughts?
Thanks for the info Patrick.... I know I don’t have The RL III, but I need to check my other ones.
Can’t seem to find a Specialty Presence pressing with GP on discogs. I’m only seeing two GPs, one from Santa Maria and another from Terre Haute. Is it so rare that no one has created a discogs page for it?
Hello Patrick , just curious what is your opinion on the Page 2014/15 remasters ? I think they are good but then again my system is pretty modest
Thank you!
Hey Patrick! Great pics, I have the HOH and Zoso that you mentioned and need to check out the others (which I’ve added to my wantlists). I’ll probably need to do a shootout with my classics, which I haven’t yet done 1 on 1. One quick question: I couldn’t find the presence on Discogs :/ the only GP I saw were non specialty (CSM and Terra Haute) and the only specialty pressings didn’t display any of the gp marks (@T/gp, AT/gp, etc). Could you post a link to that specific listing for presence? It’s my wife’s favorite LZ album so of course I can justify another pressing😂)
Heard or compared any of the German pressings Patrick?
Patrick, do you think we'll ever see one-steps or equivalent, like a recreation of the Ludwig for example? BTW do you have a favourite pressing for Disraeli gears?
Thanks for this video! You mention Monarch many times…is this the pressing to seek out? How about PR, RI, etc.? Or don’t worry about the pressing facility?
Just discovered that the club editions of Physical Graffiti were cut by GP !!
Hey Patrick, enjoyed your reviews and picks. No Coda ? Believe it or not I still don't have a LZII RL pressing ugggg.
Ever since I purchased: _Led Astray: The Folk & Blues Roots of Led Zeppelin_ compilation I realized Page / Plant ripped off pretty much _every_ blues song they could.
Plant didn't even bother re-writing original blues lyrics!
Shameful, or maybe Shameless.
Enjoying perusing your channel. Thanks for the Goldmine (hehe!) of wisdom you so kindly share to all.
Thank You!
Educate yourself further and you'll realize many bands did the same, it was very common. Zeppelin brought more attention to the original artists than they ever would have received otherwise.
So you clearly prefer GP cuts. However, are you also saying that the monarchs are the better sounding pressings in your opinion? Or are other Pressing plants equivalent? I'm on the east coast and monarchs are less common
Hey Patrick 🎶
What in your opinion happened with The Classic Series? I do not own any of them, but it’s cool to hear their are others that sound Amazing!!! I just picked up my first RL❤️ Wish they were all cut like that🤨😃
Thanks Brother ✌️🎶
Not sure what happened, maybe the monitors were not setup right, maybe they did not listen to other pressings to get a feel for what the "best of the day" sounded like
@@pbthal Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks Man🎶🎼🎵🎤🎧🎸
@@pbthal Of course they listened to other pressings.
The houses of the holy UK is a reissue.
The Porky is A1/B1 RL is A2/B3
The earliest & first UK was A2/B2 cut by RL. The Porky is a reissue from somewhere around the early 80’s. It has the WEA logo on the outer edge of the label. WEA was introduced in 1978 by Warner & was not around in 1973.
Check out the Piros Houses of the Holy. It is great!
so mot it be!!😀😀
I appreciate the video and the knowledge/opinions, but seems like you have a huge bias towards original pressings. You casually dismissed the entire Classic Zeppelin catalogue...claiming that the Classic Physical Graffiti 'doesn't even compare' to any clean US pressing is pure nonsense.
I agree. The classic series are no slouches. The weakest ones are zep 2 & houses of the holy. Presence & in through the out door are better than the first pressings. The best out of the bunch are 1 & 3 - they sound fantastic. In saying that there will always be a transient magic with the OG’s.
Clear your throat homie.
Sorry to burst yer bubble mate but yer no spring chick so I very much doubt you can HEAR these subtle differences. In reality your getting sucked in by the branch of psychoacoustics heavily influenced by ego. Don’t worry its a problem that’s prevalent in TH-cam land.
