DVD Reviews of Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains the Same

DVD Review: A Fan Must
Summary: 5 Stars

If you are a fan of Led Zeppelin this is a must. Think it was good at the theater, try it on your 50 " HD with the 5.1 selected. This is a return to the days of Rock. Where a Les Paul cries, a blues singer screams , and a rhythm section pounds. What a relief from the hip-hop pop of today.

DVD Review: BEHIND THE SCENES- AND ON
Summary: 5 Stars

Outstanding. The "Rockumentary" shows the footage from Led Zeppelin's concert in New York city as well as a bit from their personal lives.The viewer gets an idea of what it's like from their end of the tour as well as some of the most outstanding music ever in concert.Most noteworthy is the drum solo from "Moby Dick" from the late John Bonham.It is long,but anything but boring.Overall,this is evidence of why their will never again be quite a decade like the 1970s for music.

DVD Review: 1976 Led Zeppelin Concert dvd.
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a popular film, when it came out in the mid 70's, Led Zeppelin, performing live at Madison Square Garden. Good concert footage, and sound quality, cut with some fantasy sequences, and behind the scenes footage, makes for a good over all concert experience. Featuring some of Led Zeppelin's best songs as well.

I bought this Led Zeppelin the Song Remains the Same for my son and he loves it.........thank you

DVD Review: blast from the past
Summary: 3 Stars

This is a mediocre movie, but Led Zeppelin was a great band if you liked their headbanger heavy metal sound. When I saw that this live concert at Madison Square Garden took place in 1973, the year I graduated from high school, I thought a blast from the past would be interesting. But concert movies are tricky. In a sense you get the worst of both worlds -- you are not, in fact, present at a live concert, but watching it second hand, and the quality of the music doesn't compare to the studio recordings we're used to from CDs. There's no narration in this film, and really no narrative. By today's standards the technology is forty years old. We learn nothing from or about the band. But for those of that generation like me, it was still fun to watch a band that defined a generation (and sold 300 million albums) with songs like "Stairway to Heaven," "Whole Lotta Love," "Heartbreaker," and "Dazed and Confused" -- Jimmy Page on what the film hails as "the electric guitar," Robert Plant (vocals), John Paul Jones (bass guitar, keyboards) and John Bonham (drums).

Description of Led Zeppelin - The Song Remains the Same

Experience the lightning of Led Zeppelin's 1973 Madison Square Garden concert-and enter the dreams and backstage lives of one of rock's all-time best-selling bands! Year: 1976 Director: Peter Clifton, Joe Massot Starring: Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham, John Paul Jones
For Led Zeppelin fanatics, this 1976 feature The Song Remains the Same is a treasure of searing live performances, particularly welcome in light of the sad scarcity of such visual material from the band's great decade. Despite the group's road weariness after a long tour, their final, three-night stand at Madison Square Garden in 1973 was full of the old power. Performances of "No Quarter," "Whole Lotta Love," "Black Dog," "Dazed and Confused," and "Stairway to Heaven" underscore Zep's charisma. Trouble is, you don't get an unbroken performance here. Viewers have to wade through a mishmash of documentary insight into the lives of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Bonham, and John Paul Jones, as well as fantasy sequences supposedly inspired by the thoughts and fantasies of the band's individual members. It's mostly garish and silly, but there are some nice elements, especially insights into the late Bonham's life. The DVD doesn't offer much in the way of add-ons (a theatrical trailer is about it), but there is also enhanced viewing for 16 x 9 televisions. --Tom Keogh
