Classic Rock feature on DVD



Some interesting excerpts from this month's edition of Classic Rock Magazine
(they're doing a Q-style full issue feature on Zep next month):

"With rumour and counter-rumour likely to rage all summer, Classic Rock can
reveal that while the changes of the band actually playing together appear
to be slim - at least for this year - sources close to the band insist that
the sheer presence of the DVD and live album may yet have a long-term effect
on that process."

"The attention to detail on the project is but summed up by their
willingness to use footage from unofficial sources.  Bootlegs were traced
back to their original sources, and people who shot them will each be
receiving an official credit and a signed copy of the finished DVD."

"When Classic Rock asked whether the exhaustive research undertaken for the
DVD had unearthed enough material for a second volume, [director Dick]
Carruthers was unusually coy: "What you get on these two DVDs us what passed
muster as the best of Led Zeppelin," he responded.  "I think that answers
your question."
