The  exact  city  has  faded,  but the isolated moment is
still clear. Somewhere on the East Coast during Led Zeppelin's
most  recent  tour  of  America, Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John
Paul  Jones  and  Robert Plant were speeding from the stage to
their  touring plane. Now, heading down the runway to the next
stop,  they  collapsed  in exhausted heaps around the on-board
video tape machine.

     Little Richard was on the screen, bashing his piano keys,
rocking  the  bandstand and howling "Tutti Frutti" in the 1957
classic  film  "The  Girl Can't Help It". Page watched, took a
weary  slug  of  "Jack Daniel's", and began to grin. "You know
something?", he toasting. "No escaping own roots".

     Three years later, with that credo very much in mind, Led
Zeppelin  have released a feature film of their own. "The Song
Remains  The  Same"  captures all the power and force of a Led
Zeppelin  concert from the ultimate vantage point. The view is
from the second row, the sound is as if the viewer on stage. A
multiple  track  playback sends the music from every direction
of theatre.

     The  tension  is hold immediately. The opening moments of
"The  Song  Remains The Same" show the band gather in Britain,
fly to the States, and pile into cars that will take them to a
long-packed  "Madison  Square Garden" in the heart of New York
City.
