Rock's premier metalmen Led Zeppelin, whose blend of gutsy blue and scathing rock catapulted them into the music world's pantheon, take you on a spellbinding journey of song and imagination. This high-impact movie captures the group's legendary 1973 Madison Square Garden concert and uncorks a freewheeling mix of scenes showing group members at home and in elaborate fantasy settings.

Robert Plant's raw lead vocals, Jimmy Page's explosive riffery and the sonic-boom rhythm wall of bassist John Paul Jones and drummer John Bonham all swirl, clash and collide - on classic tunes like Stairway to Heaven, Dazed and Confused, Whole Lotta Love and many others. No one goes down heavier than Zep!

I have this on DVD and have to say it's a snip at the price for any Zeppelin fans.
It has fantastic coverage of them at their best in Madison Square Garden.
Its current popularity, despite the strange narratives in the middle which would have normally seen it as a fringe release, is because until the new dvd, there wasnt a lot of live non bootleg footage to be gotten of Zeppelin in action so for fans it is essential.
The John Bonham drum solo in Moby Dick is immense.
Jimmy's guitar sound is incredible and the whole thing is a real eye-opener to some of the self indulgence and excesses of true CLASSIC ROCK...
