    switching to my dumpster dive Sony CD/SACD carousel. It sometimes plays the SACD, sometimes not. Great when it does. The Argus SACD worked earlier.

    It's funny about some of these Zeppelin bootlegs. I bought several of them on vinyl back in the 70s and they sounded pretty-good but now you see them coming out digitally remastered and some have appeared from new sources. I can remember going to a lot of concerts back then and seeing what appeared to be hundred of wires coming from the soundboard to dudes recording the concerts. Of course back then most were using cassettes but they still sound pretty-good. The DAT ones and newer digitally-recorded boots are totally-awesome.

    I have a Neil Young boot my friend recorded in the 90s on DAT from the soundboard that is totally awesome. One of my favorites. Like you're right there.

    It's nice to have boots from concerts you were actually at.

    I enjoyed it. And that, in the end, may just be the summary of any review I'd offer. If you are a fan of either, or both, of these artists, I believe you'll feel the same.

    Their voices blend wonderfully, without either losing the strengths of their own. There were no "wow!" moments or real head turners for me in my first listen. Some cuts may, indeed, grow on me over time--especially those like "All Around the World" and "Shake Me In Your Arms" for their chemistry/energy. The whole album flows well, nothing cringe-worthy, IMHO.

    Yeah, I think you'll enjoy it.

    Thanks. I have had it on my list. So I guess I will pick it up.
