The Song Remains the Same: The Soundtrack From the Motion Picture by Led Zeppelin (CD, Oct-1990, 2 Discs, Swan Song)

An awsome collection of live songs, recorded during what was arguably one of Zeppelin's best performances. All songs were recorded live in a concert at Madison Square Garden. The crowd was clearly pleased by listening to their not stop chanting, cheers and applause. This CD includes what was probably the longest version of Dazed and Confused that they ever performed, totaling over 26 minutes long. Without a doubt this CD contains my favorite version of Stairway to Heaven that they ever performed. As you may know Zeppelin was famous for improvising all of their live performances so that no two would sound exactly alike, and Jimmy Page (Lead Guitar) is certainly the master at directing the whole band when it come to improvising on this album as well as other performances. Robert Plant (Vocals) throws in some excellent boogie woggie lyrics in Whole Lotta Love with a nice medley as they usually do with that song. John Bonham (Drums)was certainly at his best in Mobey Dick, in what is primarily a drum solo song, he actually plays a good portion of the song with his bare hands, symbols and all!!! John Paul Jones (base guitar) and (keyboards) is in the zone in a very good way during No Quarter, but also give much credit to Page with some tremendous work and a totally awsome guitar solo in this song.
I could go on and on about this album, but hearing is believing, so I say without a doubt thumbs up for any Zeppelin Fan and this album should turn any one on the edge into a true Zeppelin Fan.
Thanks for reading, hope this was helpful!!!

Familiar songs, but with altered delivery from the studio albums. I have the studio albums as well and enjoy the enjoy the modified lyrics and extended jams. Well worth the purchase to get more Zep.

An exceptional classic.
A seminal work melding psychodelic, blues and classical orchestral composition.
The origional sound is a favorite.

SIempre me gusto la musica de LED ZEPPELIN, los temas son geniales y a pesar que tienen una larga duracion en su ejecucion, se puede apreciar el talento de los interpretes. Creo que voy aseguir buscando CD's similares o de otros grupos que hoy son leyandas del ROCK

This is a great CD & I have been listening to it every time I am in my car. One of the best CDs I've gotten this year!!

THE ENTIRE ALBUIM has good songs,and played in the real way they were meant to be,with the correct mindset,great deal as usual,i didnt have this one and i found it so i bought it ,now i have all of their u.s. released music,and some thats was from the BBC

este producto llego en perfectas condiciones y se escucha muy bien, espero hacer mas compras de tus discos, gracias

This is the true Zeppelin experiace album that is good to just kick back and listen to the the best rock and roll band of all time. Yea, I'd skip the movie aswell as the music is what were really after! I love this band, and consider them my most favorite. I was only a 11-12 year old kid at the high of their carreer, but now can only re-live what was and may never be again.....Enjoy!

If you are in the mood to rock, this is THE album to get. The energy and presence in each song is hat makes this CD shine.

I needed this album to complete my collection of Led Zepplin music. The CD is a classic CD and that is my taste in music, so I was really pleased.

I have both the Song Remains the Same DVD, and the Song Remains the Same CD. Save yourself a great deal of $$$, and rent the DVD once. Skip through all the psychodelic special effects, and watch the band play live on the stage. Skip everything else, and go straight to the Dazed and Confused track, and watch Page work wonders. Then skip ahead to the Moby Dick section, and watch the band walk off the stage while Bonham goes to work. Everything else was just a distraction from the outstanding soundtrack... The CD has some missing tracks, but that is the least of the concerns if you are a Led Zeppelin fan. This album has the best overall mix of the best songs from the band.
