Rock critic :
Longtemps connu comme étant un des plus grands groupes de stades, Led Zeppelin décide finalement de dégoupiller cette grenade et de la lancer sur le marché en 1976. The Song Remains The Same, unique album live du groupe, restera le témoignage de la flamboyance et de la furie qu'il déployait sur scène. Le film du même nom comprend des scènes de concerts accompagnés de commentaires de chaque membre du groupe. Cet album est donc une sorte de "Best Of Live" comprenant d'excellentes versions de "Rock And Roll," "Dazed And Confused" (sur lequel on entend bien sûr Page utiliser un archet pour son solo de guitare), "Whole Lotta Love," ainsi que l'incontournable et monumental "Stairway To Heaven." --Billy Altman

For Led Zeppelin fanatics, this 1976 feature The Song Remains the Same is a treasure of searing live performances, particularly welcome in light of the sad scarcity of such visual material from the band's great decade. Despite the group's road weariness after a long tour, their final, three-night stand at Madison Square Garden in 1973 was full of the old power. Performances of "No Quarter," "Whole Lotta Love," "Black Dog," "Dazed and Confused," and "Stairway to Heaven" underscore Zep's charisma. Trouble is, you don't get an unbroken performance here. Viewers have to wade through a mishmash of documentary insight into the lives of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Bonham, and John Paul Jones, as well as fantasy sequences supposedly inspired by the thoughts and fantasies of the band's individual members. It's mostly garish and silly, but there are some nice elements, especially insights into the late Bonham's life. The DVD doesn't offer much in the way of add-ons (a theatrical trailer is about it), but there is also enhanced viewing for 16 x 9 televisions. --Tom Keogh
