DVD Description

This groundbreaking concert film of Led Zeppelin's electrifying 1973 performance at New York's Madison Square Garden is a magical mystery tour through the band's live gig, as well as backstage footage. The film also delves into band members' personal lives and even recreates their own private hallucinations via animated sequences. A must for fans of the group and those new to the wonder of Zeppelin.

Synopsis

THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME presents the very best of Led Zeppelin's legendary 1973 appearances at New York's Madison Square Garden. Interspersed throughout the concert footage are behind-the-scenes moments that supposedly reflect each band member's individual fantasies and hallucinations. Includes blistering live renditions of 'Black Dog', 'Dazed And Confused', 'Stairway to Heaven', 'Whole Lotta Love', 'The Song Remains The Same', 'Rain Song', and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Zep At Their Best !!!, 27 Nov 2007
By K. B. Staddon "Cunlingo" (U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well, the wait was worth it, I have had the original release (on VHS ) since it was first released and although I was impressed the first time round, this is special!! It was like listening again for the first time and the sound quality is excellent. If like me you had the oppertunity to see Zep in the 1970's you will remember them in all their glory, if you didn't then this is a fine example of Zep live and unharnessed. To be picky, I would have liked the extra tracks on disc 2 to have been in their original concert running order, but apart from that this is as good as you will get. Thanks to Jimmy Page for an exeptional remix, " Its been a long time since I Rock n' Rolled this much !!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Huge Improvement, 19 Nov 2007
By Crazy Bald Heid "kennyb63" (Surrey, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
Speaking as the first reviewer to actually see the rereleased disc - this is an absolutely massive improvement on the dreadful original DVD release of the film. The sound and picture are nicely cleaned up I cannot vouch for how good the 5.1 works but I would imagine that Jimmy Page wouln't let quality slide now. The set is realistically priced, and not over elaborately packaged, just a bog standard DVD box.

As for the film itself its all there in its glory including the risible, self indulgent fantasy sequences. The live footage whilst not perfect in the first place - due to the well documented continuity gaffes -represents a decent document of the band at the peak of their powers. Part of me would like a "no fantasy sequences" option but I have a feeling that not all of the concert footage was available to offer this.

There is no revisionism here but the remaster is sympathetic and more suited to modern media than the scratchy old DVD.

The extras are a nice grab bag of bits and pieces lying around from that era, news pieces, a good interview with messrs Plant & Grant, trailers etc and of course here is the addition of the unearthed Misty Mountain Hop, The Ocean, Celebration Day(cutting copy) and Over the Hills and Far Away.

A one star disc is now 4. Not perfect but now pretty damned good.

4.0 out of 5 stars High hopes but..., 18 Nov 2007
By Laakkonen Marko (Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Well, I got mine ahead of schedule this Saturday, and, though I don't know, maybe this is some stripped-off version, but the first dvd only has the original movie (albeit remastered in 5.1) WITHOUT the new songs in their correct places. So you still have black dog following rock'n'roll instead of Celebration Day. This was a major disappointment. The missing songs are, of course, on the second dvd, but why they couldn't have been included in the film eludes me. I think they should have re-edited the original film by cutting out the documentary parts, replacing them with as much of live footage as possible. I guess we'll be getting yet another version... the Definitive Song Remains the Same 3DVD DELUXE BOX.
Having said that, the extra material is interesting and the sound finally does justice to the band's energy on stage. A bit of a letdown, but, four stars simply for Led Zeppelin, the greatest rock band ever.
P.S. I had to upgrade my rating after viewing the dvd in full: simply mind-blowing! I never realized it sounded and looked this good, the old dvd was from a different planet, so to speak. So five stars it is, full show or not.
