Zeppelin DVD / CD in November? (Page 7 of 9)

yeah, everybody will have it, can't go tomorrow ?? can't go tonight, but need some other stuff from BB anyway. thanks.

There is NO item worth that price Tres. I'd wait to miss being trampled.  The vid on the big screen was beyond cool. Having those guys, less one but very ably represented by the son, on stage and with all faculties intact to perform was a rare treat. A "best of" but live.

Guarded optimism here....you're right, when they did the O2 reunion, the rumor mill went ablaze about them doing a tour with Jason, and it was Plant that strongly nixed the idea.

Fast forward - over the past couple months, Plant has been very prominent in promoting the Celebration Day release, attending the interviews with the media, the premieres, etc. At the same time, Page has been quite vocal in stating that he has a lot of post Zeppelin material to record, and very much wants to get on the road and play in 2013....

As a long time Zep fan, I'd like nothing better than to see them get together and work on new material with Jason behind the kit...a tour would be the icing on the cake, but at least to get them working together in studio would be tremendous!

Not to knock Page at all, but it bears mention that as I listen to this release, I can't help but reflect on just how good Joe Bonamassa is. He's not the writer that Pagey is, but as a player, he's simply untouchable!

I agree....Joe has the ability to do, and the taste not to overdo, which makes his work such an absolute pleasure to listen to. This release was really done well....at times, I wished that Plant was just a bit more prominent in the mix, but....this is, after all, Led Zeppelin! Page, in addition to being a good and prolific songwriter, is a wizard in the studio...he's meticulous, he knows what he's after, and he doesn't settle for less. It was a long wait for this release, but well worth the wait.

A little harsh, imo

I thought Paul McCartney's vocal performance at the Olympic Concert was a disappointment. When you've been singing your whole life - it's just a matter of time, when your 'instrument' will start to falter.

Plant can still perform, imo   but as you and your voice mature - you have to adjust, to how best to use it.

Most of the vocalists i grew up with, are over 60 now - and almost all have lost a %age of their vocal power - sad, but that's life!

  There are exceptions to the rule - but they had the good sense, over the years, to look after their instrument.

Uh yeah. Howabout Glenn Hughes? Now there is one of the very few who still are just as good in their 60's. Who else is?

indeed, daughter was here for the holiday and asked what I wanted for Xmas. Santa will be bringing it in short order, I can wait another month. My son reminded me that we already have a DVD, the extra disc from the Mothership package. So we got it out Wed night and watched nearly all of it. I swear I didn't know it came with the CD. I thought it was excellent, especially Robert's vocals. A lot of it is early on, you can tell by how Jimmy's hair changes through the songs. Was he getting a perm before some of those concerts? Anyway, thoroughly enjoyed it and got me even more hyped for Celebration.
