From the original uploader

This CD came out in 2000 on the Tarantura 2000 label out of Tokyo. It’s a version the famous Zeppelin release ‘Pb’ or ‘Pure Blues’ which has been released many many times on vinyl and CD.
There have been many debated regarding where the original source came from, one theory is that it was a radio broadcast, the other is that it is a raw soundboard tape
The big difference with this release is that it’s the first time a TAPE source has been located and used.
All previous releases have come from vinyl sources.
The producers of this release aquired a 2nd gen tape from an American collector who had the tape stored away since 1983
It was then speed corrected and 32-bit Re-Mastered by CoolMixMan aka Blackdog.

Very excellent and necessary stuff. For future ref however – the best label for mastering of the prime zep SBDs etc (by a distance) is Lquid Led (signature series), kinda like Md Valley for Clapton, Cry Cat, Hollow Horn or Dandelion for Dylan, Purple Chick for the Beatles or Vinyl Gang for the Stones.
Not that you shouldn’t grab this essential ‘document’ of a great band in their prime
Mat,
Speaking of essential labels and releases, I trust the archives opened ok, seemed fine from this end. Another 3am for me, blindin’ stuff!

Yes, the zips took me a couple of tries and via a couple of different software apps but I got it opened. Still haven’t had time to listen, but exciting stuff.
