LED ZEPPELIN Dancing Days Are Here Again Limited EDITION 4LP BOXSET Vinyl 56/300
The boxset is new and still sealed. There's a few small tears on the top of the shrink wrap but the boxset has no wear. See pics.
This is a very high- quality box set of one of the band's most well- known bootlegs.
Controversial artwork, but it was the official poster of this show. Peter Grant allegedly tried to get it pulled, but here we are. Now, it is gracing the cover of this bootleg. I guess that explains why boots of this show always have WW2 era German art (to say lightly).
Anyways, the set is very nice. Box is very premium, and feels like an official release. You get the 4- LPs in color housed inside with a 1- sheet containing a write- up of the show. There is a mispress with what appears to be all of them (side 3 and 6 should be switched), but this is a minor inconvenience. The show is still included uninterrupted in its entirety.
Now, the show itself is almost infamous. It is likely the best- sounding Led Zeppelin bootleg in existence, which is really saying something because there are a lot of superb sounding audience and soundboard recordings. It is a multi track recording and it could pass off as an official live album. It is warm and balanced with every instrument coming right through. The gig's notoriety comes from the band's performance. 1973 is arguably their most well- known live year due to "The Song Remains the Same".
This was a smaller venue show when the band was at the height of its popularity. The recording reflects that. It is a loose show that is a bit more relaxed. Perhaps the band was a little tired, but it still makes for a great performance that would surpass most other bands' peaks and would hang with the best of Zep 75-80. The setlist is also awesome for 1973, with some really cool encores.
Even though this show is very well- known among bootleg collectors, i believe this is the first time the entire thing has been pressed to vinyl as one complete set. So grab it, for sure.
