Current Recommendations

Complete Copenhagen Warm-Ups
These warm-up shows for the Knebworth festival shows are actually more interesting, and sound better too.

Tour Over Europe 1980
The Frankfurt show is fairly spirited for a 1980 outing.

Conquer Europe
Another good 1980 show.

Heineken
The very last.  Check out the inventiveness displayed in Whole Lotta Love, and it'll make you wonder what might have been.  Poignantly, one of the longest-ever versions of Stairway to Heaven is performed.

Studio Haze Volume 1
A nice compact collection of early outtakes.  An irresistible fly-on-the-wall's view of the making of some very famous songs.

After the Crash
The fabled "XYZ" demos, when Page jammed with members of Yes.  Includes some 1997 Rainer Ptacek tribute outtakes.

Silver Coated Rails
One of the first Zep CD boots I was exposed to.  What a revelation the sound quality was!  Some choice bits from a trio of good shows.

Coast to Coast
A nice single-CD bit of 1977 soundboard material.

Cosmic Energy MPGs
Best-I've-seen versions of all the early Zeppelin video.  A must!
