As a Non-Dan Fan the Acoustic Sounds announcement was lackluster. Also, I don't see Page relinquishing the right for anyone else to reissue their stuff while he is still alive.... Would love a repress of those Classic plates though.

Certainly Page would profit from this.  So that's really teh question.  He has the opportunity to make a new dollar on people that already own the reissues from a few years ago.  You can tap back into a market that you already tapped.  The general non-audiophile is going to go for the $30 reissue every day of the week, but audiophiles aren't exactly lining up to collect more of these zep reissues.  They are nothing special. 

Yep

I have zero zeppelin on vinyl. I listen to them digitally but i have no interest in picking up any of the ones at my local shop or target or wherever . 

If I’m buying vinyl I want it to be great. That’s who the hypothetical AP release would appeal to. We aren’t buying the current ones anyway 

30 bucks for that seems not worth it. 

I didn’t have any Dan on vinyl before the latest release either. What was out there wasn’t great as far as I’m aware. I think the original TAN was one disc at 33 which is a lot of music for 2 sides. And the RSD was two discs which was better but also 33. Doesn’t have to be a Uhqr though 

vinyl for the sake of vinyl I got over once I bought a few Jazz albums released by DOL. flat out awful and they take up precious shelf space. Spending 20 bucks on those is highway robbery. I get the zeppelin reissues aren’t that bad, but i guess it’s the same principle with me as it’s not the release you would want to have. Just stick to streaming versions  in that case which are essentially free

DOL is terrible. 

As far as SD, there are certain originals that are exceptional.  Aja AB-1060 is stunning.  I'm really curious what it will sound like on fresh vinyl. An original Gaucho is excellent too.  

Since you bought all these AP there's probably no reason to hunt originals,  but the Greatest Hits mastered by Bob Ludwig is absolutely worth seeking out.  There are a million out there so they are not expensive.  It's very,  very good though.  And nice to have around to jam the hits.

Agreed.  I definitely avoid DOL. 
I do have one DOL and it was a total waste of money.  Some years ago, my wife and I were in another town and we saw this cool looking record store and went in to check it out.  I made the mistake of doing something I very rarely do- I made an impulse purchase, in this rare case, a purchase of a new copy of this record:

Neil Young & Crazy Horse – Live At Shoreline Amphitheatre, Mountain View, CA October 1st 1994

Label:	DOL – DOR2136H
Format:	Vinyl, LP, Unofficial Release, Stereo, 180gr, Green Translucent
Country:	Europe
Released:	2020
Genre:	Rock
Style:	Classic Rock

I've listened to it once and that's all it took to realize I had wasted my money.  The pressing is mediocre at best and the performances are totally lackluster and it's mostly Neil, very little Crazy Horse.  I've only kept it for two reasons- 1) because otherwise that was a wonderful day and we had a great time and 2) as a reminder to NOT impulse buy! 

I didn't know that DOL would do an unofficial boot. That's low

For sure- and I feel bad about having supported this kind of thing with my dollars.  Lesson learned!

I'm also surprised Discogs allowed the listing and sale of this LP.  They usually do not allowing this sort of thing to be sold.

My understanding (and I have no knowledge of copyright law) is they operate in the grey area.
legal but not authorised vs it being an illegal bootleg

Dol is freely for sale on discogs AFAIK. Something about the age of the recording and sourcing it via open license of something perhaps. Discogs says it’s a “public domain” reissue label 

in any case they aren’t getting access to tapes so it’s never going to sound good 
not really sure how to classify them besides that they sound terrible 

you can’t however buy or sell the orange bootleg PJ Binaural, the colored Lost Dogs, the Benny bootleg. There has to be a difference.  

It’s also called a “European” company. It’s Russian, and claiming to be Europe based on a technicality of geography. That’s kind of another grey area

Yes.

the non “Uber” 6 LP

So I have been waiting for a Fillmore show forever.  While a complete show would be best,  this looks pretty damn good.  

For years,  my favorite boot has been my Feb 2 97 radio broadcast from this run.  It's so great,  it's unspeakable.  If anyone wants the FLAC of it,  ping me and I'll give you a link to my drive.  

I'm probably going to wait to order until it's on Amazon.  It will be cheaper and come faster.  And yeah, the Uber package is silly.  Just trinkets.  Deluxe seems the way to go.
