Everyone knows who they are, and blah blah...so I'll get straight to the stuff.

The Footage:
Lots of great footage from stuff as early as 1969. There are 4 major concerts highlighted here. The 1970 Live at the Royal Albert Hall, 1973 Madison Sqyure Garden (showing footage not released with "The SOng Remains the Same" movie), 1975 Earl's Court and 1979 Knebworth.

DVD 1 has the Royal Albert Hall show, and is a wonderful look at the early Zeppellin show. A good selection of songs. DVD 1 also has some archival stuff from earlier that is really amazing.

DVD 2 has the other 3 concerts and some press conferences. Madison Square Garden is, as I said, just the 1937 filmed stuff thatw asnt in the movie. Knebworth is a great showing of the later Zeppelin shows, and includes an awesome version of Kashmir. The best show is the Earl's Court concert. The first few songs are acoustic with JPJ on the Mandolin.

The Audio:
Really good stuff. Remastered for Dolby 5.1 Digital. The clairity is much much higher than any other live classic rock group I have ever heard. Definatly a good remaster job by Page.

Overall I'd have to say this is one of the better Band DVDs i own, and is much better quality than The Song Remains the Same.

You couldn't give it to me.... I wouldn't listen too it, it would be tossed in the trash. Where it belongs..... If there was a way to seperate the intro's and Stairway to Heaven, then I might listen to it.

I'd take it if you gave it to me for free. I bet I could sell it on E-bay.

I'd certainly keep it if someone gave me one of these DVDs. Led Zeppelin isn't my usual fare, but it's good stuff.
