This review is from: Inside Led Zeppelin a Critical Review 1968-1972 (DVD)
The majority of this DVD consists of comments & interviews with critics and musicians having no connection to LZ. The commentary is uninformative, unless you know nothing about the group. The live footage is only brief clips, with no complete songs. If you want to see Zeppelin live, buy any of the other authorized DVD's ("Song Remains the Same", etc.). You will regret spending money on this one.

Not bad, some vital information and rare footage of Zep,
By Fortizymo (Salinas, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Inside Led Zeppelin a Critical Review 1968-1972 (DVD)
I thought this insider DVD wasn't bad. Some of the same commentators as the Deep Purple Inside DVD. Pretty much the same setup. Start with Led Zeppelin I through Led Zeppelin IV with commentary from various UK session men and critics (most I've never heard of here in the US). They talk about various songs with video clips none of which is shown all the way through. The songs are all live from BBC or Australian footage. The one thing that I got from this DVD was the fact that Jimmy Page ripped off the Stairway to Heaven intro chord progression from the band Spirit's song Taurus. It's on Spirits first album and you can hear it on the free audio sample. I'll never listen to Stairway the same again.

Led Zeppelin 101,
This review is from: Inside Led Zeppelin a Critical Review 1968-1972 (DVD)
This is one of those DVD's that seemingly come out of nowhere.Most of the live band footage, Zep fans will recognize from the "special features" of the double disc set from last year. Audio wise, most of what you will hear is from the BBC sessions. While there is no "unearthed" footage, it is still great to see and hear the old interviews. Hearing Bonham's voice is interesting on it's own, nevermind what he's saying. What is excellent about this DVD is the breaking down of individual tracks from the first 4 Zep albums. Deconstructing the songs gives us great insight into Zeppelin's creative process. Musicians will love the little guitar lessons sprinkled throughout the disc. Although, some of the riffs provided are WRONG (ie. Stairway). This disc is a great primer for anyone with a burgeoning intrest in Zeppelin, or rock and roll for that matter. Finally, Led Zeppelin is getting the credit it deserves. THE MOST INFLUENTAL ROCK BAND EVER!
