Editorial Review: Product Description: \N Amazon.com: For years, as playlists and multidisc players put Led Zeppelin tracks into a mix, there was a perpetual need to adjust the volume when Zep came on. Their tunes languished in the haze of substandard remastering--until now, at least for the 24 tracks on Mothership and the final fullness of the new Song Remains the Same reissue. For its part, Mothership's crisper, warmer audio owes its heft to the troika of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, who helped oversee the mastering, bringing out untold shades even in the throes of "Heartbreaker" and the sinews of "No Quarter." It's an impressive sonic leap. Where tinny high-ends and muffled lows used to co-exist, fatter and louder depths prevail. It's ever more astonishing that Zep got on with just four blokes. You can quibble with the 24 tracks here (where's "The Ocean"?), but the band picked each track here, from the stone-cold locks ("Communication Breakdown" and "Stairway to Heaven," no, duh) to the robust throb of "When the Levee Breaks." As for "The Ocean," you can find that in fantastically full form, along with five other gems on the newly remastered Song Remains the Same, which shows up for 2007's holiday season on DVD, too. Only rarely have four lads from England made so memorable an auditory and visual blast. --Andrew Bartlett More from Led Zeppelin

 Rating:  - Sonically very harshI am about the biggest LZ fan there is but I goto tell you.If you like harsh,bright,and loud then by all means buy this.If you want to hear Led Zeppelin in a warm and natural way do yourself a favor and buy a turntable and the 200 Gram LP reissues from Classic records.After a few listens you will toss this in the trash. Rating:  - Mothership - Led ZeppelinSo you are thinking to yourself: I have everyone of these Led Zep songs. Got the box sets, the "other" greatest hits cd. Why should I plunk down $18 to buy the same old tunes in yet another repackaged cd? Because it is worth it based on the total overall package. The inner booklet is crammed with informative tidbits and pics plus a song by song description of when it was released, etc. Sound and mix is so outstanding, its like hearing these songs for the "first" time. They could have used Fool In The Rain and Dancing Days instead of Nobody's Fault But Mine and Achilles Last Stand, but that's my personal choice. Highly recommended!!!! Especially if you are one of the few Earthlings who has never heard of Led Zep, this would be a great ... Read More: Rating:  - An unnecessary, substandard "best of" albumHow many times does Led Zeppelin need to be remastered? Zeppelin has long been a high-water mark for audio mastering... screwing with it to make it "louder" is sacrilege. It's called "dynamic range," people. That "fatter sound" that you love to hear from today's radio crap is compression killing sonic clarity. There's no way around the trade off between dynamic range and compression. But the worst part about this CD, despite all the great tracks it includes, is all the great tracks that it's missing. I could do without "Communication Breakdown" (a great song, but one that has been superseded by other better songs), "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You," "Since I've Been Loving You," "Stairway to Heaven" (as if we haven't heard it enough ... Read More: Rating: - I'm Confused, Not DazedThe re-masters of these songs are fantastic. SAVE YOUR MONEY ON THIS SHAMELESS CASH IN. Get it at the library. WAIT FOR INDIVIDUAL ALBUM RE-MASTERS TO GIVE MONEY. Rating: - Led Zepplin MothershipI love Led Zepplin and this package has all the great songs rolled into 2 cd's along with footage from their concerts. Anyone who is a Led Zepplin fan, this is a must for their library |
