El concierto clásico y más conocido de Led Zeppelin: "The Song Reamains the Same". Me quede con las ganas de ver la copia que circulaba entre los amigos, así que cuando tuve ingresos me lo compré en Discos Castellò por 2.700 pesetas.

La típica compra para resarcirse de un deseo incumplido, porque nunca llegué a ver el vídeo completo.
Notese el numero 15 en la caratula: "Suitable only for persons of 15 years and over. Not to be supplied to any person below that age".

Led Zeppelin, one of the great supergroups of the seventies have been inmortalised on celluloid in "The Song Remains The Same", a staggering visual celebration of some of the most moving and powerful rock n'roll the world has ever seen. The film moves at full throttle, from a surreal opening sequence of the band being drawn together to their arrival on stage at Madison Square Garden. From a camera position in the second row, see them perform all-time classics such as "Whole Lotta Love" and "Stairway to Heaven".
The live on stage material is intercul with insights into the individual band member's most private thoughts and for the first time lays bare the inspiration behind the music.
In the words of Camero Crowe - a live Zeppelin performance will no longer be just a memory.
