Return To Paris Theatre 1971 is a 1994 2CD Led Zeppelin bootleg, taken from a BBC broadcast meant to be done on 25 March, 1971 at the Paris Theatre in London, but was done a week later on 1 April. The medley in "Whole Lotta Love" includes "Let that Boy Boogie", "Fixin' to Die Blues", "That's Alright Mama", "For What It's Worth", "Mess of Blues", and "Honey Bee". It's a casual performance, as many of Led Zeppelin's shows in London seemed to have been, and the show concludes with host John Peel telling people to exit the venue. Most of this was later released on the official BBC Sessions album, but this is the full performance, with "What Is And What Should Never Be" that is not on BBC Sessions (from the 1 April, 1971 show).

==========
The second Columbia album from Johnny Winter was recorded and released in 1969. As the liner notes said, there was quite a bit of music recorded and Winter did not want to compromise anything, including sound quality. What he had Columbia do was release the music as a 3-sided LP, with Side 4 being completely blank. It was considered one of the best blues-rock albums of its time, and it helped bring Winter into the 1970's with style.

Disc 2 is an unreleased live recording in London, six months after the release of [i]Second Winter[/i]. It also includes an early performance of brother Edgar's "Frankenstein"
==========

Second Winter, Johnny Winter's second album for Columbia, originally had the distinction of being the only album in rock history that was a three-sided double LP. Musically, 35 years after its original release, Second Winter is still an oddity. Issued by Sony's Legacy division, the set has been painstakingly remastered, and expanded by bonus cuts and an entire disc of live material. It's too bluesed-out to be a pure rock record, and too psychedelically dimensioned to be a pure blues album. Tommy Shannon calls it "power blues." And as for whatever else passed for blues-rock at the time -- Cream, Hendrix, Canned Heat, etc. -- forget it. This set is a whole different animal. Cut in Nashville with all tracks begin done within one or two takes, the energy of Second Winter is undeniable. The sheer range of styles Winter assaulted in his restless quest is astonishing too. The set begins with a blues-funk cover of Percy Mayfield's classic "Memory Pain," that adds a wealth of rock sonics to the mix. The same goes for the gritty originals like "I'm Not Sure," with its screaming electric mandolin, and the album's closer "Fast Life Rider." The latter two are textured with Edgar's stellar piano work. Then there's the album's centerpiece, the signature cover of Bob Dylan's "Highway 61 Revisited" with its burning, gut bucket slide work and Winter's bona fide revival of Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode." Trad Delta blues makes its appearance here as well in "I Love Everybody," as does jump jazz in "I Hate Everybody," both of them with Winter's raucous edge. The original album is buoyed here with a pair of bonus tracks, an instrumental version of Ray Charles' "Tell the Truth," as well as the jump blues classic "Early in the Morning." Disc two in the set is an entire unreleased concert from the Royal Albert Hall in 1970 with the same band The show is a monster showcasing all the fiery craziness of Winter's nearly unbelievable guitar mastery on tracks such as "Mean Town Blues," "Black Cat Bone," "It's My Own Fault," "Tobacco Road," and "Johnny B. Goode." It is also significant for the early performance of Edgar's classic, "Frankenstein" -- it's a very different, and preferable -- version than the one recorded in the studio. All in all, fantastic sound, an excellent package, and good notes by Andy Aledort make this a welcome addition to the classic rock canon

*****

The remastered edition of Johnny Winter's classic second "triple-sided" album, Second Winter is a gem in and of itself. Forget the deluxe packaging, extensive liner notes and inclusion of the previously "lost" live concert, Live At Royal Albert Hall as a bonus CD.

This is a must-have album for every blues fan. Classics like "I'm Not So Sure," "Highway 61 Revisited," and the definitive version of the oft-covered "Johnny B Goode" are staples of a bluesman whose career has touched and/or influenced many of the greats. From the traditional blues of "I Love Everybody" to the experimental "Fast Life Rider," and touching on newer sounds like an electric mandolin and textured keyboards in the progressive "I'm Not So Sure," as well as including two bonus tracks, "Early In The Morning" and an instrumental version of Ray Charles' "Tell The Truth" which smokes, there is absolutely nothing here to disappoint.

While the remastered version isn't quite as unique as the original (and only) three-sided LP version, the sound quality improvements of the music more than make up for it. Purists will, of course, not be as impressed by the sound improvements of the remastering but the sound has definitely benefitted from the remaster and is extremely clean-sounding.

Also included here is an April, 1970 show from Royal Albert Hall in London, capturing the group at the height of their 1970 tour. Improvising their way through the slow, melodic B.B. King classic "It's My Own Fault, Baby" to the smokin' "Tobacco Road" and hitting the Rock 'n Roll national anthem, "Johnny B Goode," the show highlights the talent of a great live band, particularly the live improv skill of one of the most polished guitarists of our time.

The Legacy edition remaster of this classic album, along with the bonus tracks and the live show make this a must-have package for any fan of the blues.

Pink Floyd - A Collection Of Great Dance Songs (1981) {1987 Columbia}

Genre: progressive rock

A Collection Of Great Dance Songs is a 1981 compilation album by Pink Floyd. It was released between The Wall and The Final Cut. This is the original U.S. pressing released on Columbia Records. If you would like to hear the Capitol remaster done in 2000, you may go here and ask for a re-seed.

The success of The Wall in 1979 and throughout 1980 made Columbia Records in the US impatient for more "product". They decided to request a compilation, and they received one in the form of A Collection Of Great Dance Songs.

A few things made this an interesting compilation. The version of "Money" is a brand new recording, done in 1981. "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is a unique edit, blending the best elements of the 9 part song and combining it as one, as if to make it more radio friendly. This is also a chance to hear the proper intro of "Another Brick In The Wall (Part II)", as heard on the original 45 rpm single. Unlike the 45, which fades out 40 seconds into David Gilmour's solo, it fades out during the execution of the pudding.
