Their reunion concert was billed as LED Zeppelin .
I'll bet they were put up to it by a promoter and needed the cash. Rather dissapointing, at least the show was great, they probably called up Bonzo's ghost backstage before the show , or something. peace
The concert was both a fundraiser and a way of honoring the late Ahmet Ertegun (in fact, the tickets say Ahmet Tribute Concert, not Led Zeppelin), and they weren't raising money for themselves. The profits went to the Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund to provide scholarships for students to attend universities in the U.S., U.K., and Turkey.

RollingFreakReally? I know Plant is against touring, but I've never read anything about him not wanting other stuff being released. Maybe because that just fuels rumor talk? It always seemed to me that Page didn't want to make a profit off what was a charity show for Ahmet Ertegun. 5 years down the line from that show though, it seems like it would be a fitting release.I honestly wouldn't need anything else from them so I think that would be a great way to bookend their career.Quote

My understanding is that Page won't release Zeppelin's material without the other's permission (even though he most likely owns the rights), and Plant, so far, has said No to the 2007 reunion release. I think if it were all up to Page, there would be much more released live (and maybe some studio) material.
I agree it would make a great release. I have the Boot of the show, and if properly mastered, I think it would sound great.

RollingFreakNot that its a bad idea, and its certainly possible, but they just released Mothership at the same time as their reunion show. And that was very much promoted as their introduction to iTunes etc. Just seems like its already been done.Quote

Perhaps Led Zeppelin is also releasing a hard rock compilation via iTunes called something like MISTY MOUNTAIN HOPPING.
This is from The Song Remains The Same. That whole concert is already out on DVD in their movie from the 70s. And the entire concert is on the new 2 CD soundtrack they released from the film.Quote

Just release the DVD from this concert and I'll be happy. Where is this from? Damn these guys are smokin! peace

RE: "for someone that is hailed as a great songwriter and a great guitar player he hasn't done much of anything since 1980."
hasn't had to though, has he? he did it all, and then some, before then
but rumours for anything 'new' from zep?
it's probably surely BS

"This is from The Song Remains The Same"
Yeah recorded in NYC in July 1973 (July 27 to 29) and guess what? These shows are among the worst of the 73 tour.
Page knew that, that's why he spent months editing chopping making composites of the songs heard on the lp/film.

Yup
Especially with the Zep T-Shirted millions under 25 years old that have never heard "That's The Way"

incredibly perfect digital stereo.
They will have to reamp the stuff then to give it some analog magic. Sounds like could use the skills of Jeff Lynne working with Jimmy Page. peace

One more band Jeff Lynne can make sound like ELO.

Or 'Boogie Shoes' for that matter.

people say that but it only happens when jeff lynne co-writes the songs. when he just produces it doesn't sound like ELO

Nice to hear that likecats. Maybe the Led Zeppelin billing was a public perception thing or a Radio Staion DJ gone wild? peace

Yup, just read an article about this yesterday. Thought back to when I saw Eddie Trunk's tweet. Hope this ends up being true as I would still really love to have this. This sign that other news sources are picking up on it seem hopeful to me! But obviously won't count it totally official till its actually out in stores or else I'm possibly setting myself up for a big letdown.Quote

Things are starting to happen. Possible Nov/Dec release of the O2 show. I know this is a hardcore Stones forum, but if you're also a Led Zeppelin fan, check your Zeppelin message boards. There is a serious buzz in the Zeppelin community. Count me in!
