One of the few truly bigger-than-life rock bands, Led Zeppelin continues to cast a giant shadow over contemporary rock two decades after the group's breakup. The slickly packaged set offers a solid introduction to the band's work, with two discs of remastered, sonically upgraded album tracks, plus a third disc of interviews with surviving bandmembers Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones. Hearing all these Zep classics--"Stairway to Heaven," "Whole Lotta Love," "Dazed and Confused," "Rock and Roll," "Kashmir," "Immigrant Song," "Black Dog," "Good Times Bad Times," "Heartbreaker," "Houses of the Holy," and "The Song Remains the Same"--assembled in one package is an impressive testament to the group's pervasive influence. --Scott Schinder

Customer Reviews

STOP If You've Heard This Before....
"LED...ZEPPELIN...IS...BACK!" shouted the TV advertisements for this collection, distilled from 1990's four CD box set. Indeed, the 3CD "Remasters" (two music discs plus a third interview disc) provides near-perfect middle ground between the group's collected works box and 4CD box, and the inferior "Early Days" and "Latter Days" one-disc sets.

"Remasters" spends its first disc on Zeppelin's seismic first four albums, leaving out some essential "II" tracks ("What Is And What Should Never Be," "Living Loving Maid") but culminating where it should, with "Stairway To Heaven." The second disc concentrates on Zeppelin's most experimental work and could lead to greater appreciation of 1976's "Prescence." "Achilles Last Stand," with its understated (for him) Robert Plant vocal, and "Nobody's Fault But Mine" are represented; "Candy Store Rock" would've been a nice addition also.

The third disc features a 30-minute radio special (featuring a lo-fi, interwoven "Hey, Hey What Can I Do"), individual interviews with surviving band members, and some Jimmy Page's song intros ("Hello, this is Jimmy Page and this DJ is insane!" "Hello, I'm Jimmy Page. It's time to wake up and get the Led out!") This is all as essential music as any released since the Beatles' breakup, and should be owned (either here or on the original LPs) in some form.

The perfect starting point for begginners...
All of Led Zep's albums (with the possible except of Led Zep IV and Physical Graffiti) have had some outstanding tracks, but some not so great ones. And here, in one handy package, are virtually all the outstanding ones. This is nearly as good quality as buying all 8 seperate albums, but much much cheaper (I got the British edition, which doesn't have the interview disc but has the two music discs, for [amt], which is about [amt]!) It has all the classics, from the opener 'Communication Breakdown' through 'Babe I'm Gonna Leave You', 'Whole Lotta Love', 'Since I've Been Loving You', 'Black Dog', 'Rock and Roll' and my favorite track of all time 'Stairway To Heaven', then onto the second disc which is concerned with Physical Graffiti (once described by British music magazine Q as the heavy alternative to Seargeant Pepper) and the other experimental albums, and contains more great numbers like 'The Rain Song', 'Houses of The Holy' (which, contary to logic, does not appear on the album of the same name but on Physical Graffiti), 'Kashmir' and closer 'In The Evening'. It is a great place to start for begginers to Led Zep, and despite some ommisions (where is When The Levee Breaks or What Is And What Should Never Be) it is a wonderful collection of music and a brilliant introduction to one of the most pioneering rock bands of the 20th century.

PURE BRILLIANCE
Well what can you say about Led Zeppelin that no one already knows. They absolutely positively rock. The man to thank for this brilliant CD is Jimmy Page, the God on the guitar and the backbone of the band. In this cd jimmy displays his absolute best. The best way to describe this cd is old classics remastered for the 90's. The crisp clear sound only makes you appreciate the music more. My only advice is to quickly GO BUY THIS CD! STILL HERE GO I SAID GO
