Edgar H (4/5) / 2 View   "Absolute Hysteria" (Beelzebub)
Notes: An excellent release from the cdr label Beelzebub. It's a tough , kick ass concert .... a bit raw at times, with a somewhat wild and edgy feel to it. There are a couple blunders here and there, Plant sings the last verse of Heartbreaker just before the key change to the guitar solo but he recovers okay and Jimmy has a rather large clam early in SIBLY but proceeds to play one of the most impassioned versions from the tour. Plant's voice is just amazing , and the band's interaction is so spontaneous and fresh sounding. The crowd were apparently a little rowdy, (good ol' Beantown) and the tension was apparent. Plant makes several comments during the show to try to cool off the crowd and security. The crowd around the taper also have a case of the "clap" which gets annoying at times....especially on What Is....and Moby D. The sound quality of this source is quite good, better to my ears than Come Back to Boston which may come from a different source(?). Beelzebub has a tendency to over EQ their releases sometimes to the point of distortion but they didn't overdo it this time. The remastered tape sounds clear and strong, very dynamic and full from top to bottom.

It was to be a twelve hour multi-band concert, that was to be part of the City of Boston's "Summerthing" concert series. Unfortunately, area resident complaints were filed with the city, due to problems with some of the concert crowd trespassing, noise, causing property damage and the theft of sound equipment from a previous Janis Joplin show, the city cancelled the license for the show. Mayor Kevin White worked with the promoters and an agreement was reached to move the show to Boston Garden. As soon as the tickets went on sale, I drove the 104 miles to the Garden Box Office and got my tickets (there wasn't any such thing as Ticketmaster, or scalpers, back then. You were on your own to get tickets). As you can hear on this recording, it was a great show. I was almost exactly the same as the 1970 Royal Albert Hall show, in London, that was included in the Led Zeppelin dvd box set (the one with the "Devil's Tower" rock formation on the cover) Naturally, being an "enthusiastic" Boston crowd, nobody stayed in their seats, so there were some problems when the crowd clogged the aisles and surged toward the stage. Luckily, I had seats in the first row of a floor section, in the 20th row, so when I had to stand on the seat, as the crowd flooded the aisles, I didn't have to worry about people obstructing my view, or interfering with the recorder microphone. All in all, it was two and a half hours of mesmerizing, classic Led Zeppelin. T he only one in the crowd who couldn't have enjoyed the show was a guy who was sitting behind me. He got to his seat just after we arrived and he was surrounded by the unmistakable aroma of cough medicine. Back then, there were some over the counter brands of the stuff that still contained codeine. During stage announcements, at the beginning of this recording, you can hear him let out a "Ahhhhhhhrrggghhh"! sound. During the show, I made it a point to see how he was doing. I turned around, about 30 minutes into the performance, looked down and saw him slumped in his seat and passed out. It was probably the best show that he had ever been to, but never got to see or hear. Ahhh.... those were the days! Hopefully, he's still around and can listen to this and see what he missed. Enjoy this trip back through the mists of time! Many Many Thanks to Joe.
