notes: minor dropout near end of 'since i've been loving you', and 2 dropouts in whole lotta love, which ends prematurely. -davep

The sound quality of the audience tape used for this release starts off good. The recording is overloaded by the bass which distorts the tape a little. We're Gonna Groove sounds cluttered and the instruments lack definition. There is also tape hiss in the upper frequencies. A good equalizer will temper the tape hiss. The tapers talk around the recorder in places, but it's minor. The recording clears up a bit by I Can't Quit You, but the bass still overloads the tape in places. The quality of the recording ranks somewhere between good and very good from this point on. The recording does drop back a notch from How Many More Times to the end of the tape as the bass gets a little heavy and the instruments lose clarity. Whole Lotta Love is not cued separately. The tape ends shortly after the *looove* portion of Whole Lotta Love. (Brian Ingham Apr 98)

After much confusion over dates and places in the German section of the first European tour this is a 2 CD set from the Musikhalle, Hamburg on March 11, 1970. The audience recording starts off a little distant, muddy with some bass overload. The sound starts to become clearer after the first number and then becomes muddy again at the end of the recording. Two songs, Thank You and Since I've been Loving You sound a bit closer and more distorted - maybe from a second source. A low level of hiss is heard during the quieter moments. There are cuts in Heartbreaker, White Summer and the end of Whole Lotta Love is missing. Standout performance is Dazed And Confused and Jones' jazzy organ intro to Thank You is worth noting. Plant almost raps with the audience during the How Many More Times medley. This is a good but not outstanding show from this early period. (Tony Gassett Feb 98)
