Sounding great. Wearing and Tearing and the other ITTOD takes sound great. They really had a cracking room to record in there. Thor couldn't make a more glorious racket than Bonzo
Well worth the money.
Coda's really come of age as an album.
To be honest Coda is the only one I've bought because it's got significantly more 'new' stuff.
Have heard the rest on Spotify. I like the sound quality but I'm not too fussed about alternate mixes etc (excepting Led Zep iv where they are different to my ears).
I liked the bonus disc of them live in 69 for LZ i. Great live band but extra special, raw and funky when they were fresh.
I very much like Presence but it's an acquired taste imo. Very guitar driven but quite clean sounding. The rhythm section has some stellar moments on Achilles last stand, and Candy Store Rock.
Ittod has a lot of keyboard driven stuff (due to Jimmy's off field problems) so it's again an acquired taste. Some Z list filler but has a great drum sound throughout.
Coda has a cross section of material from their whole career so it's good but doesn't really flow as an album.. the new bonus version has some very tasty outtakes though.
Worth hearing them on Spotify just to say you've heard them.
ITTOD has some real tripe on it, but if you drop them and drop in the songs off the sessions that were put on Coda you get a stronger album.
But this reissued Coda is great stuff.
My copies just arrived.
I must confess to being childishly excited that In Through The Out Door comes in a brown paper bag like my original LP. I'm assuming the inner sleeve doesn't have magic water colours though...?
It is neat packaging, I love the paper bag....I haven't tried the water yet!
