CABALA
8CD's covering Zed Zeppelin and relevent pre-Led Zeppelin material, dating from roughly 1963 through 1988. Quality is variable, but all very listenable.
It's an interesting set to listen to, if only for Jonseys bass line during CD7's ALL MY LOVE from 1977! You get a good idea of what preceeded and helped dirct them early on along with an intersting sample of some of their best songs, and chunk of rare and obscure tracks and takes.

Disc One:
01. I’m Confused
Was one of the first numbers Led Zeppelin added to their set after beginning their career as the New Yardbirds. They soon changed the name of the song to “Dazed and Confused”. This version was recorded in 1968 at the Anderson Theater for one of Page's final performances with The Yardbirds.
02. Train Kept A Rollin’
Was another song Zeppelin played during their first American Tour in 1969. The track was recorded live in New York in 1968 with Jimmy Page and The Yardbirds.
03. She Just Satisfies
Is the first solo release from James Patrick Page. Originally released in 1965 under the name of Jimmy Page, this record is now incredibly scarce. The song was written and produced by Page. The track features Jimmy on all the instruments and lead vocals.
04. Keep Movin’
An R&B instrumental is the B-side to 21-year old Jimmy Page’s first solo release. The single was issued only in England on Fontana Records.
05. You Better Run
Is the first recording featuring a 19-year old Robert Anthony Plant. The single was released in 1966 and issued under the name of Plant’s group Listen. The track is a cover version of a Rascals tune which was later recorded by Pat Benatar.
06. Everybody’s Gonna Say
Is the B-side to Robert Plant’s first solo single. The band originally called themselves The Tennessee Teens, but changed their name to Listen. This is the first track crediting Robert Plant as songwriter.
07. Our Song
Was Robert Plant’s first solo single issued under his own name. The single was released only in England in mid-1967.
08. Long Time Coming
Was the third and final Robert Plant solo release before joining Led Zeppelin. The track was recorded by The Band of Joy in late-1967. The group included a 19-year old drummer named John Henry Bonham.
09. I’ve Got A Secret
Is the B-side to the Band of Joy’s only recording. This track also features John “Bonzo” Bonham on drums.
10. Goodnight Sweet Josephine
Was the A-side to the Yardbirds final recording with Page. The song has never appeared on any Yardbirds album and features Jimmy’s first experiments with a phased guitar.
11. Think About It
Is the B-side to The Yardbirds last single. Released in 1968, the track was never included on any album and is quite scarce. If you listen to Page’s guitar solo, you’ll hear where he got the idea for the middle of “Dazed and Confused”.
12. Hey Hey What Can I Do
Is the only track Led Zeppelin released as a single, but never included on any of their LP’s. The song was originally released as a B-side to “The Immigrant Song”.
13. Psychodasies
Is one of three Yardbirds tracks featuring Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page on guitars. This track has never been released in America, or included on any Yardbirds album.
14. Happenings Ten Years Times Ago
Was the first Yardbirds track to feature both Beck and Page on dual lead guitar.
15. Stroll On
Was the only Yardbirds track specifically recorded for a film. The song was intended for the 1967 movie “Blow Up”. The cut is basically “Train Kept A Rollin’” with different lyrics. The tune includes both Beck and Page on guitars.
16. My Babe Left Me
Is one of the earliest recording sessions featuring Jimmy Page on guitar. The single written by Arthur Cruddop is a remake of an Elvis Presley Sun records classic. The track was recorded in early 1963 with Dave Berry and the Cruisers.
17. A Certain Girl
Recorded by The First Gear features Page on guitar in 1964. The tune was popular with the British groups of the era including The Yardbirds, who also recorded it with Eric Clapton.
18. Leave My Kitten Alone
Is the B-side to “A Certain Girl”. It’s an outstanding British pop record. In 1964 the song was recorded by several British bands including the Beatles. The session was produced by Shel Talmy who also produced records for The Kinks and The Who.
19. Surprise Surprise
Was recorded by Page in 1965. The record was released by Lulu and The Luvvers. The track is a cover version of an often overlooked Rolling Stones number. Lulu later went on to fame as a pop singer with songs like “To Sir With Love”, but she began her career as an R&B singer with Page backing her up on guitar. (Godwin states that Lulu is not performing this version)
20. How Do You Feel
Was one of the final recordings featuring Page as a session guitarist. Recorded in 1966 by The Primitives, this track captures the true raw sound and feel of British rock bands of the era.
21. Jim’s Blues
Was released on an album by PJ Proby “Three Week Hero”. It was the first record including all the members of Led Zeppelin. The album was recorded several months before “Led Zeppelin I”.
22. Traveling Riverside Blues
Was originally recorded for “Led Zeppelin II”. For some unknown reason, the track remained an unreleased outtake for over twelve years. You Shook Me – no details given
23. The Girl I Love
no details given (ed: later appeared on official release “BBC Sessions” as “The Girl I Love She Got Long Black Wavy Hair”)
