Quotewith sssoul Mercy: Mick Taylor doesn't "embody" either of those tracks. Loving Cup is a piano-driven number and Mick T didn't play on the studio version. His slide is lovely on All Down the Line but it's only part of what makes the track great. I reckon that on the 2014 tours Mick T is playing on what he wants to play on. Is that a serious comment?

There is no question that Zeppelin was able to make those tunes their own and I love the way they interpreted them, but to try to steal the writing credit is wrong and unforgivable. I like the way R

QuoteDoxa QuoteNaturalust Bob's not playing guitar? What's up with that? I thought most of his tunes were based around his guitar playing. I can however imagine that the band was tight without his playing guitar since I've heard he tends to do his own thing regardless of what was rehearsed, which would obviously be difficult for the band. peace He plays a lot of piano these

It would be very interesting to get some inside information about Taylor´s contribution. I can´t help but wonder why he´s willing to put up with being some kind of special guest gig after gig. Is the money that good?

The great response to the relatively obcsure song Out of control could hopefully be a hint that it´s possible for them to play some lesser known songs whitout losing the crowd (it´s still a few weeks to Stockholm...)

Quotedcba @ Svartmer : The future lies in HD formats. CD is dead it's an outdated relic from the 80's. Even if Page (and Kev Shirley?) put all their hearts and skills into the remasters they'd still sound like crap on CD. "You can't make a silk purse..." and all that. Of course it´s possible to make improvements on cd, there are many examples of that, but t

This is a major disappointment, I can´t hear any difference at all from earlier remasters, in fact some songs sound better on Mothership. And the bonus material - a couple of outtakes, some intrumentals, some live stuff - doesn´t motivate this release. Mr Page has milked the cow again...
