Led Zeppelin is going to remaster all of their records, and issue them in an array of fancy new packages, some with new songs (live or unreleased).
They want all of my quarters. They might get a few of them, too.
ok-cleek
I guess I could use some rearranging
I’m curious to know what kind of “remastering” is going on here. Sharpening up the bass maybe?
Hard to think of a better recording engineer than Page back in the 70s. Why gild the lily?
lemme guess: first, a little dynamic range expansion to make the loud bits a bit louder still. then some compression to bring everything else up, especially in the lows – to make the bass and drums sound bigger. and a little EQ here are there. a little noise filtering?
Wonder how many unreleased or live tracks will be in these new sets.
Also, based on your recommendation from a week or so ago I’m going to see St. Vincent tomorrow night at the historic Cain’s Ballroom here in Tulsa. She was born here so hopefully will get some extra home town mojo working.
yeah, i was wondering that, too. there can’t be many left. wasn’t “Coda” a collection of leftovers ?
hope the St Vincent show lives up to my hype :) i’d go again in a second, if she came by again.
I’m sure it will be a good show – I really like her new CD.
Don’t know if you’ve watched any of these “Guitar Moves” videos but here’s one with St. Vincent:

The Josh Homme and the Dean Ween episodes in this series are pretty funny.
oh, that’s pretty rad. thanks for tip.
… heh, and Josh Homme gives up the scale that’s the secret to the QOTSA sound!
Yeah I always assumed the QOTSA sound was based on some obscure scale/mode combination. Removing notes from a scale never even occurred to me.
