  2. My replacement CD’s play perfectly as well. Excellent sound quality as usual from Godfather makes this a great release to seek out.

  3. I got today the replacement of the 3 discs from my retailer and they play 100% fine. You should ask the same thing to your seller bostonbro. P.S. I haven’t the tarantura version so I cannot compare the sound.

  4. Godfather acknowledges there are pressing issues with the Kiss and Zeppelin releases and are correcting the mistakes.

  5. I’ve always enjoyed Godfatherecords’ Zeppelin releases, wonderful art/packaging, date selection, and top notch mastering, but after I received my copy of Conquering Kingdome, I was tremendously disappointed. First, it’s a straight copy of Tarantura’s Jupiter and Saturn (TCD-45-1~3) with different track markers. Second, trying to rip an EAC is like pulling teeth with rusty needle-nose pliers. Plagued with read and sync errors, and disc 3 tracks 5&6 have a loud strange clicking sound. The reason I own all of their Zeppelin releases is because they always produce a quality product that is slightly different than the norm. You can always hear the “Godfather touch” …. but now all I have is a bad copy of Jupiter and Saturn with different art work.

  9. I couldn’t agree more Stuart. There are less silver discs period these days and we can always count on Godfather.

  10. excellent. the Don is back with another eclectic & colourful collection of artists. that there so very few Bob Marley silver disks on the market makes this one a small oddity & it’s nice to see a solo Thom Yorke there too – it’s nice to see the Godfather isn’t just about the money & is willing to try something else.
