Led Zeppelin movie "THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME". There was a time when this was the only comprehensive live video of Groove and continued to be a valuable asset. In the case of ZEP, a huge number of live recordings have been released since the LP era, and even in the era when the group continued to perform in real time, an amazing amount of items were produced. On the other hand, live footage was extremely lacking. The biggest reason was the active stance of ZEP and manager Peter Grant, who focused overwhelmingly on live tours rather than media exposure. In contrast to Deep Purple's surprising amount of television appearances around the same time. The only TV program that featured both Purple and ZEP is Germany's "BEAT CLUB." What's more, ZEP's live scene did not become popular for a long time, and it was not until long after their appearance that BEAT CLUB mixed nude girl dance into footage of their previous performance, following the hit of "Whole Lotta Love." All you can see is music video-style footage, which further strengthens the image of ZEP with limited footage. After all, it was only in the last ten years that footage of Oomoto's appearance (lip-syncing two songs from his first album) began to be seen worldwide. The reason why I brought up "BEAT CLUB" here is because ZEP's live footage has long included this, the movie "THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME," and the two songs "Communication Breakdown" and "Hot Dog." Only music videos and nostalgic super shows were in circulation. There is too little time to put together videos other than the official releases of movies, so I wonder how widespread the videos that bought time with Live Aid were... Or 8mm footage that is too fragmented to be a problem. What's more, the presence of "THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME", which gave a detailed bird's-eye view of ZEP's entire live performance, was unshakable, and I was grateful for it. However, now a tremendous item called "DVD" has been produced by the official company (come to think of it, will there ever be an updated version called "Blu-ray"?), and that alone was groundbreaking, but the old video In this day and age, 8mm footage that used to be unwatchable due to the picture and sound not matching at all and the image quality deteriorating has been beautifully organized and can be easily viewed on the official website. Due to the change in this luxurious situation, it is none other than "THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME" that I no longer appreciate as much as I used to. As the subtitle ``Concert And Beyond'' suggests, ZEP's intention for this film was to be more than just a live performance film. In 1973, when this movie was filmed, the group was at the height of its popularity in the United States, and the final stages of their live performances were filmed and made into a movie.This in itself is a natural progression. The problem is that the scenes other than the performance scenes (even at the beginning of the film's release) did not go beyond the simplicity of the musicians' acting, and even if we take into account the fact that music videos were still in the early stages of development, there was still something unsophisticated about them. . It cannot be denied that the fact that all the members except Page participated with their families was too much, and it cannot be denied that the scenes of most of the members are too immature to be called "images." In the end, it's no surprise that the scenes that show Bonzo's normal daily life and his speed-crazy nature were the most watchable. That would be fine, but since the manager and staff (Richard Cole) even acted like gangsters, I couldn't accept it. As scenes other than those performance scenes have faded, the presence of this movie has diminished. Therefore, in 2007, a DVD version with bonus footage was created, but it still did not change the main story of the movie. Tokoro). Under these circumstances, what fans want is to be able to watch the performance scenes purely and without stress, without being confused by such "image" scenes. Moreover, the three-day performance at Madison Square Garden, where the movie was recorded, was the first milestone in a new era for ZEP, which changed its musicality since 1972. The importance of this has become even more emphasized in these days when live sound sources are available and various live performances can be heard even in 1973. The "THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME: FAN EDITION" DVD was created to make the dreams of such enthusiasts come true. Of course, it is impossible to recreate everything into a live scene, but by taking advantage of the situation where we have all the videos of most of the songs performed, the content that has been compiled in the order of the actual live songs has received a lot of admiration and praise from enthusiasts around the world. It's something. More than five years have passed since then, and an upgraded version of this masterpiece has finally been released! Even at the time of ``FAN EDITION,'' the finish was at a high level, but it still maintained the movie format. However, the editing concept this time is to bring it even closer to a video collection that reproduces an actual live performance. In the first place, the editing sense between the last time and this time is completely different from the opening, and while the last time started with the opening of the movie left, this one immediately switches to the MSG venue footage. Even so, I hope you will be able to clearly understand the editing concept this time. Of course, this time as well, we haven't gotten to the point of omitting the aging of Johnsy's wife and Jimmy. Still, for example, by cutting out the subway scene that appears at the beginning of "No Quarter" and replacing it with shots of the audience, the result is more like a live video. Among them, the highlight of this time is “Rain Song”. By adding the performance scene here, the Viking-style image scene of the plant has been reduced by half. What was used there was an outtake shot of the same song that was included in the video called "FIRST CUTS". This video is based on a rough cut owned by Joe Massotto, who was originally commissioned to produce the film and was in charge of the filming, but was fired due to a conflict with ZEP members during the editing stage. It is said. This video appeared in small increments in the early 90's, but was overlooked due to the lackluster packaging and the lack of more songs than what was seen in the movie. However, the most valuable footage seen in this video was “Rain Song”. The sense of using such an unfortunate video now is something that will make enthusiasts groan! Since it is based on a half-official video from the 90's, the image quality is a little rough in this part, but there are more performance scenes, and Plant's chambara (I dare to describe it that way lol). You will definitely be impressed by the reduced finish. In any case, I would like to say that this time's concept of ``putting together videos related to the concert as much as possible'' was elaborate... The editing style by a person who calls himself eckoes is astounding even to a professional. After 20 minutes of "Dazed And Confused", the sense of shortening the scene of the fan being captured by that police officer and applying a performance scene that looks like it is really wonderful. The editing that allows you to purely see and hear the performance of "Heartbreaker", which was originally divided, was already seen in "FAN EDITION", but at the beginning of the movie, footage of the members before heading out on tour is shown. I had a feeling that my over-approximation backfired, but this time they used a scene from the first half of the same movie, but after they arrived in New York, to create a more natural image. And finally, the discrepancies in the dubbing that were seen here and there in "FAN EDITION" have been carefully adjusted once again. The result is such that I couldn't have hoped for anything better under the current circumstances...and now you can watch it in detail on DVD. A dream item that will bring back MSG's ZEP live in 1973 with new excitement that surpasses that "FAN EDITION" is now here!
