Favourite Stairway to Heaven's

It’s been a very miserable 2 days for me: down with a nasty cough which resulted in a horrible tension headache; was feverish too. Today’s Saturday but I’m stuck at home nursing my throat and my irritated nose isn’t making matters easier :-(

Anyway since I’m bored out of my mind I decide to rip and share the 2 Led Zeppelin concert Stairway’s that I blogged about in the Earls Court post. In spite of my being medicated I found a way to increase my site’s php upload limit to something more than 8Mb which means that I can now put stereo versions of my mp3s (the Earls Court is in mono because at 128kbps, that would have meant a file of at least 10Mb; I will reupload the file in the near future — subject to my malfunctioning memory)

Just found another 2 interesting Led Zeppelin video clips. These form a complete pro-recorded Earls Court 1975 Stairway to Heaven that didn’t make into the official DVD:

Led Zeppelin train starts a rollin'

Now that I’m on the Led Zeppelin train, I dig out an old Zep bootleg: “Geisha 芸者/Smoke Gets In Your Eyes” (1971年9月29日, 大阪フェスティバルホール, 日本). At the same time, I completed the semi-touched-up bootleg CD artwork. Boy, it does it brings back memories. I remember the days I used to spend improving/perfecting the artworks before printing them, and the many more hours listening/verifying/selecting CDs to trade. I don’t know if that fervour will ever return but it’s nice to reminiscence every now and then.
