Led Zeppelin - Live in Detroit, MI (July 12th, 1973) - UPGRADE/BEST SOUND
As requested by Z, here is a new merge I put together of the band's first show in Detroit in their 1973 North American tour. My previous upload of this show had one source running slow, so I used an upgraded and speed corrected version. The main source used here is pretty clear albeit slightly distant with Page a bit buried in the mix and some occasional minor tape issues/dropouts. The patching source is a bit noisy and hissy albeit with Page further up in the mix. Apart from patching, I also did some channel copying here and there in Dazed to cover for some channel dropouts. As for the performance itself, this is a very good show. Plant starts off rough but once he warms up he sounds pretty good, while the rest of the band is having a typically great night for the era. Special thanks to Dadgad for providing the main source, Bert for the revision of the patching source, and to Mysterii for the thumbnail!
