Led Heds find treasure-trove
in 2 summer bootleg releases
I ,
Led Zeppelin
“Many More Early Times”
Insect Records ^
“More Than Something Else”
Aulica Records
The summer of ’92 was good to
Led Zeppelin bootleg collectors with
at least 10 new releases finding their
way to the underground trading are
nas.
In most cases, the new albums
were the same old rc-rcleases of
I marginal quality recordings. Two
exceptions, however, came out of Italy
(the current world bootleg capital).
“Many More Early Times,” on
Insect Records, is a compilation of
three early and well-noted concerts
by the band. The first set of the col
lection is a fantastic monaural re
cording from Konscrthusct, Stock
holm on March 14, 1969.
The pcrtormancc is spectacular and
is sought after largely due to the blis
tering version of “Dazed and Con

“Many More Early Times”
fused” and the rare performance of
Olis Rush’s “I Goua Move.” The band
uses the song as filler while Jimmy
Page repairs a broken guitar siring.
Plant takes his spot with some spec
tacular blues harmonica and syrupy
Mississippi Delta vocals.
The next set was recorded the
previous night at the Copenhagen Teen
Club. Even though the recording
quality is not as good as Stockholm,
the performance is memorable, fea
turing “As Long As I Have You,”
which was a standard at early Led
Zeppelin concerts.
The final group of tracks on the
album was recorded on June 15,1969
at Aeolian Hall in London. This is the
best available recording of this highly
regarded set. It includes “The Girl I
Love,” a slinky vocal version of what
eventually became “Moby Dick” on
“Led Zeppelin II,”and an amateurish
cover of Eddie Cochran’s classic
“Something Else.”
The other standout bootleg of the
summer of 1992 was “More Than
Something Else,” both literally and
figuratively. This album is as close to
a definitive compilation of early
Zeppelin rarities as any release to
dale.
The folks who pul this together
must have pone to considerable effort
both in assimilating rare source tapes
and in screening out poor quality
recordings.
The highlights of this album are
many. Not only docs it contain re
cordings of “I Gotta Move,” “The
Girl I Love” and “Something Else,”
mentioned above, but also numerous
other live and studio rarities.
The third track of the album is an
excellent stereo recording of “As Long
As I Have You” from the Fillmore
West in San Francisco on January 9,
1969. During the 17-minutc track, the
band jams through several classic
covers including “I’m A Man,” which
Page performed frequently with the
Yardbirds.
Also included is a version of Buddy
Guy’s “Siltin and Thinkin’,” recorded
at the Fillmore in April of the same
year. The rich blues of the song re
veals the roots of later Zeppelin stan
dards, such as “Since I’ve Been Lov
ing You” and “Tea For One.”
Undoubtedly, the showcases of the
album arc oultakcs from the 1971
rehearsals at Headley Grange when
the band was creating its untitled fourth
album. The listener gets a rare chance
to hear Page recording an all-acoustic
demo of “Stairway to Heaven” that
shows the song in its infancy.
Also included from the same source
tapes is an untitled acoustic track that
Page must have recorded when he
was in a really good mood. The up
beat sunshiny song is atypical of Page’s
usually serious lone.
The last two rarities of note arc an
early demo of “No Quarter,” which
sounds little like the album version
and a cover of Jony Mitchell’s
“Woodstock” excerpted from the jam
in the middle of “Dazed and Con
fused” at a 1975 London show.
Any rabid Zeppelin fan who just
can’t get enough of the band will
undoubtedly find these albums to be
worthwhile investments. Both should
be in print and a vai lablc through early
next year.
