I can't believe it's not real.. [Part 2]

Very few bands come close to putting on a live show to the caliber of Led Zepplin. 2007 proved this when Led Zeppelin played for the first time in decades and still sounded absolutely amazing. When this DVD dropped in 2003 it was like a bomb shell ; no live footage of the band had circulated since a much outdated "The Song Remains the Same" This DVD had a lot of expectations, and I think it's generally understood that it absolutely blew all of them out of the water. The video looks great ; the audio consists of a great 5.1 surround sound DTS mix and of course stereo. The band is in top from here and the DVD's video is chronologically arranged from varying points in the bands carrier from a 1970 gig at the Royal Albert Hall to one of their last shows with drummer John Bonham at Knebworth circa 1979. The extras included are interviews, tv spots, and some very early preformances some even in black and white. For $20.00 this is a steal ; a chance to get a close up view on one of rock's most admirable hard-rockers.
