  Recorded live at Sports Arena, Los Angeles, California, USA, April 26, 1975<br /> <br /> Label: HRV CDR026<br /> <br /> Audio Source: Audience recording (the Mike Millard tape archives)<br /> <br /> Sound Quality: A<br /> <br /> Lineage: Original Harvested SHN-files --&gt; FLAC level 8 --&gt; MWP<br /> (see protocol file for conversion details)<br /> <br /> Artwork: Included<br /> <br /> Gallery links:<br /> http://www.mindwarppavilion.org/cpg/displayimage.php?pos=-5149<br /> http://www.mindwarppavilion.org/cpg/displayimage.php?pos=-5148<br /> <br /> Number of Discs: 2<br /> Total running time: 142:51 (63:04 / 79:47)<br /> <br /> Notes:<br /> Here's a fair (!) description that turns up all around the net, which is why I do not give credit by linking to one randomly accessed webpage when it very likely is not the original source...<br /> An excellent recording of a complete 1975 gig. The legend says it was taped by the legendary taper Mike Millard, containing the best-existing versions of Dick Parry performing a saxophone solo in &quot;Echoes&quot; and the prototype &quot;Raving and Drooling&quot; and &quot;You've Gotta Be Crazy&quot;, which would eventually become &quot;Sheep&quot; and &quot;Dogs&quot; respectively.<br /> After You Gotta Be Crazy, Dave Gilmour says &quot;It was a cruel song.... But fair. The next tune we're going to do for you is another new number, it's called 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond'. It has something to do with Syd Barrett who some of you might remember..... &amp; some of you probably won't.&quot;<br /> <br /> The show is, however, NOT complete in the purist sense of the word. Part of HAC was missing, supposedly because of a tape flip, and it has been &quot;completed&quot; using a recording from the Boston show (see posts from the mailing list below). The sound quality is, however, outstanding for an audience tape, with the actual audience practically only heard between songs.<br /> <br /> <br /> Oh, and something about the Taper (from http://uuweb.led-zeppelin.us/tapers.htm):<br /> <br /> Mike Millard<br /> <br /> Millard used a wheelchair for a recording prop. His taping equipment was a Nakamichi stereo cassette deck and AKG microphones. Various transfers from his masters were done over the years. Often the 1st generation copies would be slightly sabotaged by Millard. This was done by him to see who traded each version of his master. For example, low recording levels on the VHS copies or a few cuts here and there. Sadly Millard, during his depression, destroyed most of his masters, certainly all the Led Zeppelin ones. Tragically he committed suicide in 1990, but his family still own all the masters. The shows that he captured on tape and saved for posterity are among the best ever concerts Led Zeppelin performed. He recorded a number of other famous bands such as Pink Floyd, Yes, and the Rolling Stones.<br /> <br /> <br /> There has been some debate about Mike Millard recordings aside from Led Zeppelin. This is from interview with someone who used to trade with Mike Millard between 1987-1990.<br /> <br /> Q. What other bands did Mike record beside Led Zeppelin?<br /> A. Tons. Pink Floyd in 1975, many Yes shows, Who shows, the Rolling Stones, &amp; Jethro Tull. Basically everyone who came to the LA Forum in the years 1974-1980s, then occasionally taping after that, ie the Who in 1989, Plant in 1990, etc. He originally used a mono recorder in 1974, then got his portable Nakamichi tape recorder and AKG microphones in 1975 for the Zep shows. <br /> Q. How was the tape intentionally messed up?<br /> A. He would put a marking in a song somewhere like a volume fluctuation and then keep a log book of every copy he sent out and who's copy had what markings.<br /> <br /> Q. Did he give tape covers to the bootleg companies?<br /> A. Never, he hated boot companies. Every boot that was made was without his approval.<br /> Q. Any idea how much he sold tapes for to the bootleggers?<br /> A. He didn't. He never sold a tape, and certainly never intentionally gave one out to the boot companies. He blew a gasket when For Badgeholders Only came out.<br /> Q. Was his wheelchair due to an illness or an injury?<br /> A. As far as I know, it was a prop for taping.<br /> Q. How old was he in 1977?<br /> A. He was in his twenties in 1977.<br /> Q. With whom did he go to concerts?<br /> A. I am not sure on this one, I know he had a few &quot;helpers&quot;<br /> <br /> Q. What was his goal in recording concerts?<br /> A. Making the best quality recordings one could make. He was also very protective of his tapes, and any tape he traded out was marked in a secret way to identify that tape if it was put onto a bootleg. He also used Dolby B and played back with it off to boost the high end, but it also increased the hiss on many of his masters.<br /> Q. How did he love music? What other ways did he show his love for music?<br /> A. When he sent tapes out, he would decorate the cases with colours, labels, and Xeroxes of his ticket stubs.<br /> Q. Did he ever meet any musicians?<br /> A. No idea here, he was a little reclusive.<br /> Q. Any other biographical information that would be OK to know: What education did he get?<br /> A. He was living at home with his mother. He worked as a custodian at a high school (nothing glamorous here)<br /> It's my understanding that his master tapes are now in the possession of his family.<br /> <br /> Q. Do they intend ever to do anything with them other than keep them?<br /> A. No, I had a friend who knew him very well, go to his mother after his death and try to help her organize them and pack them, but she would not let him into the room where they were. As far as I know, they are still in the room he was living in during the last years of his life.<br /> <br /> <br /> Mike Millard<br /> From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Millard)<br /> <br /> Mike Millard, nicknamed &quot;Mike The Mike&quot; was an avid concert taper in the 1970s and 1980s, recording mostly Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones concerts in California, especially at the Los Angeles Forum. He taped virtually every show at the Forum from 1974 to 1980. Many of his recordings found their way into the hands of bootleggers who sold Mike's work to unsuspecting fans.<br /> Starting with a basic mono recorder in 1974, Millard upgraded to a Nakamichi stereo recorder with AKG Acoustics microphones for the 1975 Led Zeppelin shows in the area. He often used a wheelchair to conceal his equipment, pretending to be disabled. Unlike most 1970s audience bootlegs, Millard's recordings are noted for their great sound quality, and are to this day considered some of the finest audio bootlegs available.<br /> Millard's recording of the Led Zeppelin concert on June 21, 1977 at the Forum (allegedly taped from row number six) was released under the title Listen To This Eddie, and remains one of the best-known Led Zeppelin bootlegs. His recording of the opening number from the concert, &quot;The Song Remains The Same&quot;, was included in the promos menu of the Led Zeppelin DVD.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Info: Twenty-sixth in a series of Harvested uploads...<br /> <br /> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd<br /> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd_discography<br /> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Floyd_live_performances<br /> <br /> http://www.harvested.org/<br /> <br /> <br /> Tracklisting:<br /> <br /> Disc 1<br /> 01.
