Notes:
Pulling another one out from the oak casks, here's Plant for y'all. He and his Sensational Space Shifters rolled into B'ham for one of only two North American shows they did during 2012, the other being the day before in that other cultural mecca of the South known as Mississippi. Sound quality here is definitely solid, recorded about halfway back on the main floor. Big shout out and thanks to the best concert-taper wingman in the business, DJ Froyd. We spent many, many, hours listening to and analyzing all things Zeppelin......Plant has branched out at this point, going back to his roots and bringing in some guest musicians here and there, as you'll see here, too. I'll say this for certain...............a damn good Zeppelin tune jammed to the walls ain't walkin' through that door, so don't plan on it. Comments are welcome. Enjoy.
