HOLY CRAP!!!
I just spent the best $22.99. Anyone who loves rock n roll had better do themselves a favor and purchase the new Led Zeppelin 2 DVD set with over 5 hours of material. I grew up listening to Zep and I usually listen to their songs a couple times a week via the radio, MP3 or my CDs, but I'm an even bigger fan now. Even more so, I respect them so much more now as musicians. I bought this puppy last Friday night after work with the intention of casually watching it that night. I poured myself a Captain n Coke and sat down to watch it. Now mind you, I already love Led Zep and I have seen "The Song Remains The Same" on DVD about 10 times, but this new one is about 10 times better than that. The songs have been digitally remastered and are featured on 5.1 surround sound that knocked me on my ass. I could hear every string squeek as Page slid his fingers down the neck. It was like hearing their music for the very first time. The hand held camera shots put your face right up in it. Zep was the essence of what a rock band should be. They were so tight together on stage. There were tighter than Plant's pants. I kindly suggest that if you're a fan that you sit down with a tall drink or toke a bowl and get in the mood for some thunderous power. From Bonham's killer cross-overs and lead feet to Jimmy's nimble fingertips, it is by far the best audio and video footage I have ever seen of this mighty band. Anyone who has ever played air guitar or drums on their steering wheel has got to see this version of "Moby Dick". For all you youngins who have heard of Led Zeppelin, but don't really know their music, may I suggest that you see where your favorite band's influence came from. If blues is the root of rock n roll, I say it is the acorn, and Led Zep is the mighty oak tree that grew from it, everything since then are it's branches. If you get it, I hope that you enjoy it. I just wanted to share my thoughts with all you other music lovers out there. Now I'm going to smoke my stuff and drink all my wine.![]()
