Given that they were the biggest band in the world, Zeppelin were notoriously camera-shy in their heyday. Their official filmic legacy until now has been just the fascinating but flawed The Song Remains the Same. While this new set presents some previously unseen footage from the same 1973 Madison Square Garden gigs, its real wonders lie in the earlier (1970) Royal Albert Hall footage and the later Earls Court (1975) and Knebworth (1979) concerts. Everything here looks and sounds new-minted, thanks to painstaking restoration and remastering of both audio and visual sources, a Herculean labor of love on the part of co-producer Dick Carruthers working hand-in-glove with Jimmy Page. Trawling through thousands of yards of previously unseen film and unheard tape recordings--some with missing visuals, some with missing audio--Page and Carruthers have chosen only the best possible footage available. They were also at pains to make the segments segue seamlessly so that the viewer is treated to what feels like a continuous concert--just sample the transition from a grainy Super 8 "Immigrant Song" (Sydney, 1972) to "Black Dog" at MSG.
Highlights? It's not hyperbole to say that every powerhouse minute of this collection (some 230 minutes of concert footage plus another hour and a half of extra DVD material) is a rare musical and visual treat. But hearing Page's violin bow work on "Dazed and Confused" in DTS or Dolby 5.1 is an experience not soon forgotten. --Mark Walker

>I hope they have more to release later!
"Thanks for 11 Years."
Up until 2003, the only official footage of Led Zeppelin in concert was the 1976 concert film "The Song Remains The Same", an intriguing but flawed retrospective of their 1973 tour. For years, many feared this subpar representation would be the only memorabilia of the band in concert.

<
>In 2003, things were rectified, when Atlantic released an eponomously titled two dvd set of over five hours of Zeppelin in concert. You heard me right: 5 hours of nothing but Zeppelin live.
<
>
<
>The concerts span from 1970 to 1979 and were filmed at various different venues. Included is some footage from the 1973 Madison Square Garden show that didn't make it into "The Song Remains The Same".

<
>The firts disc is a 1970 concert from The Royal Albert Hall. Even at this early stage in their career, Zeppelin had already solidified themselves as one of the greatest live acts ever. This is over an hour and a half of pure, unledded Zeppelin. Hihlights include an amazing "I Can't Quit You Baby", Page's lengthly instrumental "White Summer", the live favorite "Dazed And Confused" and Bonham's old standby "Moby Dick".

<
>Disc 2 kicks off with a promo of "The Immigrant Song", before we quickly jump to the 1973 Madison Square Garden show. Kicking off with a rip roaring "Black Dog", this is the show that proves why Zeppelin is so well regarded. Robert Plant is in particularly fine form here. Just listen to him wail on "Since I've Been Loving You".
<

<
>Next comes the Earl's Court gig from 1975. The show kicks off with a fantastic acoustic set of "Going To California" (where John Paul Jones shows off his masterful mandolin skills), "That's The Way" and "Bron Yr Aur Stomp". The show really takes off when the band plugs in and launches into a thrilling version of "In My Time Of Dying". Next comes an electrifying "Trampled Underfoot", before the show ends with a bkazing "Stairway To Heaven" that proves why the song is regarded as the greatest rock song ever.

<
>The last batch of performances is from Knebworth in 1979. For all the great performances on the disc, this one is probably the highlight. Kicking off with a heartpounding rock and roll, Zeppelin performs as if it were the last time on stage together (and indeed, the end was nearing). The band simply on fire. Especially thrilling is "Achilles' Last Stand", the epic track from their 1976 album "presnece" that is made even better live. The best is the finale, as "Whole Lotta Love" goes under a complete transformation that is absolutely breathtaking.

>The extras are also a keeper, but even without them, this dvd would definitely be worth the price of admission.
Masterful
The DVD is a work of art. All the visuals and footage is fantastic. The sound is great and is some of the best Led Zeppelin you could listen to.

<
>It is true that they show Jimmy Page a lot, but they also show Robert Plant plenty as well as John Bonham. John Paul Jones isn't showed as much, but he is the bass player and they seem to be forgotten about.
<
>
<
>How the sound is mastered on "Moby Dick" and the footage provided, it shows that Bonham was a gifted and outstanding drummer.
<

<
>Before I bought and watched this DVD I couldn't decide who was the best out of Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Jimmy Page, but now after seeing Page perform and what he is capable of; Jimmy Page is definitely one of the greatest if not the greatest guitar players ever.
<
>
<
>Something that I found to enjoy about the DVD is how much each of the members in the band got into the music. They could have easily just gone up and played, but instead they were feeling the music and reacting. Led Zeppelin is a band of performers and it truly adds to the richness of the music.
