Description

Madison Square Garden was one of the best performances on par with Blueberry Hill in the 1970 ZEP live sound source, and at the same time it was also the highlight of the live activities of the same year. The show on September 19th will have two stages. They had achieved great stardom in the United States and had already graduated from the twice-a-day performances like the previous year, but the MSG performance originally scheduled for June was prioritized to appear at the famous Bus Festival. It was said that the event was held on this day to apologize to American fans as the event had been canceled. Audience recordings existed for both of those two stages, and “MADISON SQUARE GARDEN 1970” released in 2017 contained both sound sources in the best form. The title was sold out about two years ago because the two sound sources were made into a CD in a very natural state, and above all, the performance content was outstanding. Just like “DESTROYER”, this is also one of the evergreens of ZEP live sound sources, and should be kept in circulation at all times. Therefore, naturally there were requests for a reissue, and at the same time, a reissue was being considered immediately after Sold Out. It was also a great sound source that captured ZEP’s intense stage in 1970. In this case, there is no art in simply relapsing. Therefore, just like with the reissue of “DESTROYER,” we conducted a thorough overhaul of the sound source before release. First show. Dropouts that frequently occurred from the “Thank You” interlude to the end of the song on “Recorder 2”, which was the main source, cannot be corrected (it’s a shame that this part was not recorded on “Recorder 1”). However, at the end of the live performance, the periodic “zazaa” noise that was annoying towards the left channel after switching from Plant’s MC to “recorder 1” before “Whole Lotta Love” was alleviated. Of course, it is possible to cover up this problem by equalizing, but doing so will change the sound quality, so here we will try to suppress instability by carefully adjusting the noise balance. It makes it easier to listen to. As for the performance, since there was a heated second show coming up, there was a tendency to have a preconception that the show was a bit restrained compared to that, and it certainly looked like the average score of the 1970 American tour. However, the amazing thing about 1970 ZEP is that its average score itself is high. Plant’s voice is a scream explosion from the opening, and Page’s play is on top of that. “Recorder 2” is attractive because it captures Page’s guitar with a larger balance. Speaking of ZEP in 1970, it is characterized by a set list that starts “Dazed And Confused” as soon as the live performance starts, but the play that Page plays there is exactly the same, and it is a spectacular thing that fits perfectly. It feels like his fingers are moving smoothly, and his guitar captures the on-on balance with an on-on balance, so you can enjoy his outstanding guitar playing all the more. And before the famous “What Is And What Should Never Be,” Plant’s heartbreaking MC announces the news of Jimi Hendrix’s sudden death. The MSG audience, who have been waiting for ZEP since its cancellation in June, is really enthusiastic, but it has become quiet here and is listening to Plant’s MC. However, ZEP regained his composure and returned to the performance, cutting the stage a little short considering that there would be a second performance.However, the “Communication Breakdown” that was performed in response to the encore was extremely explosive, and the melody was similar. The appearance of The Guess Who’s “American Woman” (though Plant only uttered the song’s title), which is perfect for inclusion, is a valuable scene following the Honolulu performance about two weeks ago. It was. Regarding the second show, it was one of the great excavated sound sources of ZEP live at the beginning of the 21st century. At the same time, April Phoenix was also discovered, and I feel nostalgic that the 1970 live concerts were continuously being discovered. Not only did it unveil the 1970 MSG second show, which had been veiled until then, but the contents of the performance were so wonderful that all the items were released. Regarding this sound source, “MADISON SQUARE GARDEN 1970” was considered the best, but for this reissue, the sound source was reviewed from scratch. What we found was that, even though they were originally recorded in monaural, most of the titles released in the past had a strange sound spread that sounded like pseudo-stereo, and a noticeable fluctuation in stereo location when listening with headphones. I was there. This situation was similar to instability caused by azimuth misalignment of the tape deck head. Therefore, this time, by converting the sound source to monaural again, we were able to revive the original solid and warm state of the sound source. By returning to this real monaural state, the outline of the performance is crisp and the sound quality is solid and stands out from the speakers. Regarding this, I would like you to play it at high volume and get a good feel for it. And what stands out is the tremendous performance of ZEP in the second show. They have recovered from the sad news of Jimi Hendrix’s sudden death and are full of energy to make their last stage of 1970 a great one. From the avalanche from the opening “Immigrant Song” to “Heartbreaker”, the engine is at full throttle, and Plant’s scream is particularly strong here as well. Additionally, the free development of “Bring It On Home,” which Page and Bonzo used as a place for rhythm-based improvisation throughout this year, gives a sense of the beginnings of their “rhythm play” that would begin to escalate the following year. However, what became a hot topic from the beginning when the sound source was discovered was the explosive play after “Whole Lotta Love”. From the intro, it starts with the Jeff Beck Group’s “Rice Pudding” riff, and then Plant suddenly jumps into “The Train” from “Some Other Guy,” a song familiar to the Beatles before their debut, which they played at the LA Forum two weeks ago. Kept A Rollin’ and the band immediately follows, which is such an unexpected turn of events that gives me goosebumps no matter how many times I hear it. “Out On The Tiles”, which borrows this momentum, is not only extremely valuable as the second live version after LA, but also performed by three people, Screaming and Backing, who could only have been sung by Plant in 1970. The power riff is powerful. Up to this point, the excitement was suitable for Chiakiraku, but as a finale, the first solo rock’n’roll medley since the bus festival was released, and this time it started with “Girl Can’t Help It.” And, unexpectedly, Plant sings “Blueberry Hill” in the middle of “How Many More Times” with more screams than at LA Forum. These spectacular performances come through even more vividly by eliminating the instability of the sound, which has been neglected up until now. The first show had a calm atmosphere (but still in great condition), and the second show showed ZEP’s full potential. (Regarding sound processing) Afternoon Show Phase correction Petit noise removal After the chest is full, some noisy parts that buzz on the left channel, converted to mono on one channel Evening Show Phase correction The original sound source was strangely panned (already released as well) The original recording was supposed to be monaural, so I changed it back to the original real monaural. This makes it much easier to listen to. Live at Madison Square Garden, New York, NY, USA 19th September 1970 Afternoon & Evening Shows Afternoon Show Disc 1 (68:39) 01. Introduction 02.
