Product Description
Led Zeppelin s sold-out concert tours became rituals of high-energy rock and roll theater. The SONG REMAINS THE SAME...attests to the group s powerful and somewhat saturnalian appeal at the height of their popularity.
- from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame s web page on the band s 1995 induction
The Hall of Fame s assessment of the legendary band also states, Led Zeppelin redefined rock in the Seventies and for all time. They were as influential in that decade as the Beatles were in the prior one...Then and now, Led Zeppelin looms larger than life on the rock landscape as a band for the ages with an almost mystical power to evoke primal passions. That power is communicated full-force in the updated, 2CD reissue of the soundtrack to their concert film THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME. First released in 76, the recording captures a celebrated three-night stand at NYC s Madison Square Garden in July 1973. The newly updated edition now contains six songs not featured on the original release, and the entire project was remixed and remastered with the band members direct oversight. Featuring liner notes by Oscar-winning director and former Rolling Stone editor Cameron Crowe, the set will be released simultaneously by Warner Home Video with the new, expanded DVD edition of the film.

 The Song Remains The Same ... No Way It's So Much Better August 19, 2008

I should say first of all that I enjoy Led Zeppelin's music but I am not an ardent fan. I first purchased this album back in the late 70's as I am a fan of live albums, at the time I probably only listened to it once or twice and put it away never to be played again. Over the years I have gained an appreciation for excellent musicians and these 4 definately fall into that class.
When I saw this title was going to be remastered and include 6 new songs, I picked up a copy and I must say I was glad I did. The sound on this new version is outstanding and the attention to detail that Page and Shirley did remastering this album is worth every penny. Now I know there are purists out there who claim this to be an abomination as it compilies performances from 3 shows played at the Garden, but I say who cares the sound and quality more than make up for that. Frankly if no one had told me some of these performances were spliced together I would never have known or cared. Everything you need is right there in this mix, the guitar sizzles, the bass and drums are rhythmic and Plants voice is right up front. The 6 new songs included here really round this out to be a terrific album. This is what a remastered album should be. I definately will not play this new album only once.

Zep's best July 20, 2008

The Mighty Zep's been around a long time, and if you're like me, even the best music can start to get stale from over-play on the radio. If I never hear the Single version of Stairway to heaven again it will be too soon. That being said - the live versions of old standards on this album are different enough to make them seem great all over again. I never tire of them - even Stairway - and the Whole Lotta Love version on this album is still one of my favorite tracks of all time.
If you're new to Zeppelin (my 15 year old niece loves them) or you've been a fan as long as I have - this album should be a part of your collection. The remastered version has a song or two not on the original.
Led Zeppelin in all their glory June 25, 2008

A good example of the band in their hey day. After viewing the movie of the same title, I can visualize the band as they perform all of their hits. Some of the early as well as the later songs are on these CDs. A good example of the reason they were so popular. Would recommend to any Zepp fans or others who only know of the band by name.
Great sound, great album May 31, 2008

I had forgotten how great this album is, hadn't heard the whole thing in years.
The re-mastered version sounds great & it's definitely worth having.
Led Zeppelin's How The West Was Won (a set of re-mastered live recordings that were released
in 2003 or 2004) is also great and worth having if you're a zep fan.
