Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Overdue remasterGood to see this has finally been remastered and the extra songs are welcome. One thing I cannot understand though is No Quarter has been edited from the original version, the previous release was 12:30 in length, this version is around 2 minutes shorter with obvious cuts in the mid-song jam section. Why on earth would you re-master an original and then cut sections of a song out? Rating: - The Song does still remain the same - Still the best and worst of Zeppelin live.This new expanded version of TSRTS suffers from the same problem as the original release (fairly obviously, given that it comes from the same source material), namely that the first disk is utterly brilliant and the second is mediocre at best. It's fairly easy to get carried away about Led Zeppelin (as a lot of fans do), but let's not forget that as well as some of the greatest rock music ever they also recorded some fairly pitiful stuff too (The Crudge, Hats off to Harper, Walter's Walk...). This document of their Houses of the Holy tour was originally released between the albums Physical Graffiti and Presence, as a necessity, to fill the void left by Robert Plant's serious injury which prevented them touring. Over time the band ... Read More: Rating:  - It has been a long time.....I have been a Led Zep fan for years every since I heard Whole Lotta Love for the very first time. Unfortunately, it was just too late to have had the opportunity to experience a concert. So as a teenager I bought the Song Remains the Same on vinyl (yes vinyl) and when released, the movie on Betamax..! Since then I have re-bought the original CD release and the movie in VHS and then DVD format. Now I have bought it again in this remastered/expanded format. Firstly, the presentation of the package is superb, the cardboard folder and the booklet recreate for me the tactile experience once delivered by the original vinyl release. Then there is the music..... The energy of the concert is delivered in a rich ... Read More: Rating:  - The song doesn't remain the sameI agree with Tom from the US.....do some homework! This latest incarnation is just 'better' 'cos of the increased number of tracks. The quality on the whole is, in my opinion, much worse than the 'original' CD set, therefore it only gets 3 stars. The guitar solo in probably Jimmy Page's greatest riff, ie in 'No Quarter' is cut to shreds. Two minutes of that track are missing in this latest collection just so they can squeeze on the admittedly excellent 'Ocean', which is in the wrong place anyway as it was their encore and curtain closing number after 'Whole Lotta love' in their live set. The greatest guitar solo in guitar history, in Dazed and Confused, after the violin bow set, is of a horrible quality as it's just taken directly from the movie ... Read More: Rating: - Simply wonderfulIncredibly rich and heavy sounding rollercoaster of a live album. To my absolute delight I also discovered that this version had 6 additional tracks from the original....and they are not just stocking fillers either...real quality on display here - just check out the classic Misty Mountain Hop. With some trepidation I also admit to loving every second of the 29 minute long Dazed and Confused.... |
