Bootleg release reviews:

01-April-71 London

BBC In Concert (Forever Standard Series FSS99-005)

Disc 1: Intro, Immigrant Song, Heartbreaker, Since I've Been Loving You, Black Dog, Dazed & Confused, Stairway To Heaven

Disc 2: Going To California, That's The Way, What Is And What Should Never Be, Whole Lotta Love, Thank You, Communication Breakdown

When Boot Poisoning, the leading Japanese bootleg magazine, listed the top ten releases in 1999, this title was named number one. This title on a budget label beat out such titles as Divinity, Bonzo's Birthday Present, and Final Cut. And also, very curiously, it sold out quite quickly, making it difficult to obtain a copy. It has been said this is the definitive version of the April 1, 1971 In Concert appearance. The previous definitive releases, like BBC Zep on Antrabata (and its European clone Return to Paris Theater) were very good. The big drawback was, since they were from the pre-broadcast master, the stereo separation was very poor (the guitar in the right ear, the vocals in the left). This title on Forever Standard utilizes the tape used previously on Cobla's Stairway To Heaven, which has the stereo more centered. They further used some of the chat between songs, the intro, and the out of tune beginning of What Is., from the previous source giving the most complete and best sounding version of this show. Further, the "cut" in the Whole Lotta Love medley sounds much better. I'm not so sure it is a cut, simply the case of an anxious engineer turning up the applause making the effect sound very jarring. We can hear similar instances of anxious engineers in the beginning You Shook Me on the June 27, 1969 session and on the tape of Elvis Presley's debut on the Louisiana Hayride broadcast from October 16, 1954. The packaging is a double slimline jewel case using photos from the same 1969 BBC session used on the official release. (Gerard Sparaco Jan 02)

In any case, when it comes to likes and dislikes, one has no choice but to rely on one's own sensibilities.

Hi zoso_ledzep4_yy,

Thank you 👍 I'll be honest, I think this is the best version of this concert, especially in terms of acoustics.

I would also like to have this version :

Led Zep - 1971-04-01 - London, UK - FM - Japan - Master-DAT-CD-R

But FileFactory still won't do his job...

The Swiss transfer link I shared again has not yet reached the 250 limit and remains active. It is not in a state where downloads are impossible.
