Free Music Notes for The Song Remains The Same (Remastered / Expanded) (2CD)Free Music Review: It Beats ANY Bootleg Out There! Hit: 4 Stars
I've read most of the "reviews" on Amazon regarding this CD. Be grateful that this CD has FINALLY been remastered and cleaned up. Plant had surgery on his vocal cords for nodes a few months before this tour began. He was trying to pace himself and work through it. That explains why some songs are sung an octave lower. A year or two after this recording he fully recovered his astounding vocal range. The versions of Black Dog and Rock & Roll are not the best I've heard, but overall, this CD is WELL work your money. How The West Was Won was their ultimate best live CD. To all you b***** would-be critics and rock "experts", considering how much money fans have shelled out on bootleg CD's with DEPLORABLE sound quality over the decades - this CD is a bargain. Who cares if Page cleaned up some of the flaws!?!?! This fan is happy he did!!
Free Music Review: GREAT SOUND BAD EDITS Hit: 4 Stars
Nice package great sound but one very glaring unfortunate edit during the funky "Crunge" break down in Whole Lotta Love. The original SRTS Whole Lotta Love is clearly superior with a great little excerpt of just killer Led funk. Dazed and Confused is nearly three minutes longer and sounds excellent . Moby Dick is a track that was improved. Still I can't understand what happened and why would Mr. Page make such a horrible edit on Whole Lotta Love??? Please Jimmy fix it now!!! Its like erasing the smile on the Mona Lisa...its just wrong.
Still I recommend it for the extra tracks but beware of track edits. Several other tracks were shorten as well.
Free Music Review: Why Edit At All? Hit: 4 Stars
What I can't understand is why Pagey edited these songs??? The guitar solo in "No Quarter" has been hacked with a butcher knife. What the hell!
The drum & bass rhythms don't even match. As an avid concert tape collector, I for one would like the complete soundboard tape(s) released with all of Plant's back & forth banter with the audience and no edits whatsoever, cleaned up sonicaly in the mastering process of course. That's what should have been done. People want to know what it was like to be at a Zep concert 35 years ago. This release fails to do that.
Free Music Review: Edited to match the new DVD Hit: 4 Stars
I've been reading the 3 star and negative reviews of this remastered and re-edited version and although they make some good points, I feel they are somewhat unfair. Compared to the movie, these edits are actually longer. And errors that are on the video soundtrack are now mostly corrected.
I noticed someone commented that Jimmy disrespected J.P. Jones by leaving off Robert's "John Paul Jones, piano". That was edited out of the original movie as well. I think it would be a good idea to also remaster the original LP release.
Free Music Review: Led Zeppelin - Remixed & Remastered...Wow Hit: 4 Stars
This cd remixed and remastered sounds like it was recorded yesterday.
I saw them live two nights in a row Feb. 14, 15 1975 on Long Island N. Y. and each night they did not play the songs the same. I love the feel of the new CD. The old CD has its own magic and sounds good, better that the old days on LP. Enjoy the fact that they are still working on remixing and remastering there work.
