And then there's this news today: http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2007/07/20/source-jimmy-page-to-reunite-with-jeff-beck-for-yardbirds-tour According to an industry insider, Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck are going to tour as the Yardbirds this fall alongside founding bassist Chris Dreja and drummer Jim McCarty. The tour is said to kick

I don't give two shits about any of this CRAP!  WHEN IS THE WOLFANG VAULT GROUP GOING TO POST SOMETHING THAT HASN'T ALREADY BEEN MADE AVAILABLE IN *SUPERIOR* SOUND QUALITY ON A F*CKING BOOTLEG???????? WHEN ARE WE GOING TO HEAR SOMETHING *NEW* THAT HASN'T ALREADY APPEARED ON A F*CKING BOOTLEG YEARS AGO IN *****SUPERIOR***** SOUND ...

Why is what I posted classified as ''negativity?'' Some self-absorbed nimrod posts a bunch of information already known to Yardbirds' fans and expects...what? He's not impressing anyone, he's just annoying. And then there are the ''I don't care what lineup it is...'' morons. Well, people, there are already PLENTY of Yardbirds' live recordings ...

Couldn't agree more. Putting up a recording that NO ONE has ever heard before like a Yardbirds concert featuring both Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck on lead guitars would be truly monumental. Pretty please with sugar on top make it happen. Love,Mackey  

No, it's not likely at all that someone in Bill Graham's organization, in addition to a co-worker taping the show ''professionally,'' was also recording the show from the audience. That's a ludicrous assumption that wouldn't hold up in a kangaroo court. The show's quality and Zep's immense power in general are not in question here. ...

Can the good folks at Wolfgang's Vault explain why they are using bootleg sources that include audience recordings to fill in gaps in their recordings? What you folks are listing as Led Zeppelin 4.27.69 is widely known as the ''Jimi Page Experience'' bootleg in Zep circles. If I wanted to listen to a bootleg, I'd listen to a bootleg, if you ...
