As we find bootlegs added to the database on a regular basis, I thought it would be good to have one dedicated thread to report them. Here's some Zeppelin bootlegs for starters: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=20108" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=20108 http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=24824" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=24824 http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=31071" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=31071 |

I have bought the occasional bootleg many years ago. I can't think of any that were really worth having. Terminate them from this site with extreme prejudice!!!!

Very true. That is why I started with Led Zeppelin, which are an easy case as their official discography is limited and very well known. |

I've had a look at all three of those. I think they are all legitimately available in high street shops (in the case of the one added by mandi, probably an Italian Walmart). I don't think Rushfan4 and Snobb would have added albums which were not legitimately available. I think the issue with these more to do with the licencing, they will have been released under some sort of licence not required arrangement. As has been said, there are a lot of that type of release scattered across the site, including the entire "Inside (band name) DVD series, which claims to "require complete artistic independence".
Bottom line is that while these releases are dubious, and do not from part of the official discography, I don' t think they are bootlegs in the traditional sense.
It's a topic worthy of discussion of course, but I personally think in these cases, there is enough legitimacy to their distribution to allow them to stay.

Yes, sublicensing is different than bootleging. Quite a complicated issue indeed. [Long story told short, sublicensing releases are legal, but I don't think we should add them unless they contribute with new material - which is highly unlikely.] As for the three entries that I reported, that of Snobb also appears on Discogs as an http://www.discogs.com/Led-Zeppelin-You-Shock-Me-Live-Performances/release/2571413" rel="nofollow - unofficial release and on RYM as a http://rateyourmusic.com/release/unauth/led_zeppelin/you_shock_me/" rel="nofollow - bootleg , so I guess this can be considered settled. Regarding Scott's entry I think it's impossible for this to be a sub-licensing because the Australian tour wasn't previously released and you as far as I know you can't "sub-license" previously unreleased material. This "label" that released this DVD sells through Amazon Marketplace and seems to have many other releases for sale too. So I can't say I'm 100% sure, but they don't show up on any other database either (like Discogs or RYM). Which means Mandy's entry is the one with the highest chances of being a genuine sublicensed edition, actually.  Which I don't think we should keep, either; even if it's genuine, it breaches PA policy as it only duplicates previously added material.

Hmmm....I can't remember adding that particular Led Zeppelin DVD. I suspect that it must have come up while I was on Amazon and since it wasn't listed here, I added it. Not exactly sure why, unless I was adding another DVD or CD that I did have and while I was at it decided to add this one too. From time to time I will scan new releases on AllMusic Guide and if they apply to PA or MMA bands I will add them to the database. I don't see this one listed on AllMusicGuide though, so I have to assume that it must have come up while I was on Amazon. -------------

I think we are not a bunch of lawyers here and it's not our task to do detectives' job. If albums are distributed by respected stores and services I see no reason to delete or not include them on PA. Personally if I have doubts about some album's legitimacy I don't add it to PA. But we can't say, once and forever, to all PA members what they should not add to the database. ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour) |

No one asks the E&O team to do a detective job, I think that judging upon presented evidence is reasonable enough.
Respected stores sell mostly anything though. Remember when a few weeks back a guy asked us here to add a Genesis bootleg he had bought at Wallmart? Right now I'm looking at the page of the Zeppelin DVD Scott added, and the EBay field in the page is offering to sell me " http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&toolid=10005&campid=5335893920&customid=RSS+Widget+Led+Zeppelin&icep_item=400207496791&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=238401&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=rss" rel="nofollow - Led Zeppelin - Collectors Box Unauthorized 2DVDs $17.95 " or " http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&toolid=10005&campid=5335893920&customid=RSS+Widget+Led+Zeppelin&icep_item=110680343857&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=238401&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=rss" rel="nofollow - Led Zeppelin - Closer to Heaven (DVD, 2007) ". And Idon't know what are Amazon's standards, but Amazon Marketplace (the only place where that DVD can be bought) isn't Amazon, it's a place where anyone can sell (a sort of EBay held by Amazon).
"No bootlegs or unauthorized releases" is already asked on the album addition page, so if anyone would have your attitude this wouldn't be a problem, but obviously it isn't the case. RE Yes, they have already plagued their own discography with cheap compilations and editions, they look dubious indeed but they are OK. |

We can discuss it to death, but put yourselves on admin's place. Would you immediately delete an album if you have somebody's report that it's a bootleg? I think no, you have to search through the web, spend a lot of time and I'm not sure you'll find the right answer.
Some bands have lists of bootlegs on their websites. It seems only in this case admin can delete the album with a light heart. ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour) |

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but two of the live Black Sabbath albums are as far as I can ascertain, bootlets. Haven't got either and they appear to be decent bootlegs, but not legit all the same.

^ As far as I can tell, authorized by the band (or unauthorized by the band) is a tricky thing. We all know, in good old times bands were signed to labels, changed labels and so on. Labels, in their turn, could go bankrupt, become a part of a bigger label etc. In many cases artists quite often lost control over their back catalogue. But the remains of these unfortunate labels still had some rights, were able to give licences to other labels etc. And it's not against the law (no matter how good or bad it is). Thus, as I understand it, "unauthorized by the band" is not necessarily equal to "bootleg". ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour) |

^ all the tracks are sourced from 5 separate BBC Radio Top Gear sessions which were previously broadcast (as far as I am aware) However, all things being 'pure at the source', to be a legitimate release it would have to be either released by the BBC themselves or licensed to another vendor.

Normally Bright Midnight label releases the band's archive recordings and they are remastered by Bruce Botnick and announced on the Doors website. Nothing like this in case of Seattle performance. Discogs also says it's unofficial: http://https://www.discogs.com/The-Doors-Backdoor-Man-Seattle-1970/release/7924138" rel="nofollow - http://https://www.discogs.com/The-Doors-Backdoor-Man-Seattle-1970/release/7924138 http://https://www.discogs.com/The-Doors-Backdoor-Man-Seattle-70/release/8085469" rel="nofollow - http://https://www.discogs.com/The-Doors-Backdoor-Man-Seattle-70/release/8085469 ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why...

I'm pretty sure this Zappa live album is a bootleg: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=51008 It's widely available, but it isn't featured on any of the FZ and FZ Family Trust websites. |

Roine Stolt has confirmed on the FK Yahoo group that the Agents of Mercy live album listed on progarchives, "Magic Kingdom", is in fact a bootleg and should be removed. http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=49220 Also, the person who made the recording has a free version on archive.org, with Roine's permission and he also verified that the recording was his and that it is not an official recording and should not be for sale. 1c. Re: Agents of Mercy - Magic Kingdom Posted by: "Roine Stolt" mailto:[email protected]" rel="nofollow - [email protected] roine.stolt Date: Thu Jan 12, 2017 2:19 pm ((PST)) not legit - there is only ONE legit live recording from Agents of Mercy - and that’s the Power of Two CD. if it says “Magic Kingdom ……..” it is most likely from "Magic Room" in Boston, and with Nick DV on drums. Roine. |

Well, Mellow's Bandcamp had its own version of Kate Bush's new Live album up on that page before the real thing was released. I got to hear it for about a day before it mysteriously vanished. |

^^ It has been claimed before that the http://www.progressiveears.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-18166.html" rel="nofollow - Mellow Records bandcamp account has had bootlegs available for purchase (legal disclaimer: don't sue the messenger). I'm removing it as I have not found it listed on the Agents of Mercy site and because of what was written by Infandous. Thanks for alerting me, Eugene. In case it is ever claimed as an official release, here is the info from the album page: Live, released in 2009 Songs / Tracks Listing 1. The Fading Ghosts of Twilight (8:54) 2. The Unwanted Brother (9:45) 3. Heroes & Beacons (9:20) 4. Jesus on the Barricades (5:21) 5.

There are many officially released CD's recordings on Discogs listed as unofficial. These unofficial CD's usually cost less then the official releases. Are these Discogs unofficial releases ripped and burned from official releases? Are there other explanations? I ask because I'm tempted to purchase an official unofficial RPI release. |

^ Wrong thread, this one is for reporting bootlegs in PA database. Anyway to your question - it's necessary to check each particular case. Some are burned from official releases, some have simpler artwork, some were released as bootlegs first and then officially. ------------- Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why...
