Page moved to Destroyer (Led Zepplin bootleg recording). Vegaswikian (talk) 01:44, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Destroyer (Led Zeppelin bootleg recording)Destroyer — The title of the original bootleg recording (soundboard) of this show (April 27, 1977) is "Destoyer", not "The Destroyer", which is the title of another bootleg, taped by some people in the audience, the following day. In order to avoid confusion between two very different bootlegs, you should rename this article. 195.6.73.237 (talk) 11:52, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose Whatever we might call the Led Zeppelin recording, we certainly can't move it to "Destroyer", since this is an article on the type of warship, which is surely the primary meaning. Another of these incompetent move requests which ought to be snowballed out? PatGallacher (talk) 16:01, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment

[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Destroyer (Led Zeppelin bootleg recording)/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

There are a few important omissions in this article that I plan to check up on; however, this sentence is erroneous:

"Initial vinyl pressings of the bootleg incorrectly credited Seattle, Washington, the location of this show.[2]"

The show was recorded in Cleveland (as the article earlier indicates), not Seattle. Seattle was erroneously credited because that is where the tape for the show ended up. It was created for a Kingdome staff member (the name of the guy eludes me) so that he could plan for the upcoming Seattle Zep show. The sentence should read "Initial vinyl pressings of the bootleg incorrectly credited Seattle, Washington as the location of this show.[2]"
