The program was created specifically to allow bands to perform with complete artistic freedom. This interview remains one of the earliest available! Interview II King Biscuit Flower Hour- 1976 *An astounding and very recent discover, this interview is a truly long lost treasure. It was recorded between late 1976 and the beginning of the tour in April 1977. The interviewer is Alan Freeman, one of England's most respected DJs. In a casual exchange Jimmy Page provides a unique and rare insight into his thinking about the band, the music and the future. The interview was never transmitted and has remained hidden for 20 years. Interview III The Publicity Interview-1990 *Recorded in the summer of 1990, it was intended that htis interview be used for promotion on syndicated radio. Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones each take a look back at their albums, their success and their determination to produce music that changed both them and their audience. Each of the trio gives their own personal recollections and anecdotes which makes this piece enormously entertaining. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsThe Mighty Zeppelin MRT | 03/09/2010 (5 out of 5 stars) "The 1969 sessions on disc 1 are gritty and powerful, sometimes even more so than the studio recordings of the same material. Zeppelin performs originals like the fine folkish "What Is And What Should Never Be", the fiery rave-up "Communication Breakdown", and the psychedelic "Dazed And Confused", but the majority of the 14 songs are blues covers.
The Otis Rush-hit "I Can't Quit You Baby" gets the Zeppelin treatment, along with Sleepy John Estes' "The Girl I Love She's Got Long Black Wavy Hair" (one of the highlights of the album), and Willie Dixon's all-time classic "Whole Lotta Love". Robert Johnson's "Traveling Riverside Blues" is another highlight; a tremendous electric rendition burning with Jimmy Pages' urgent slide guitar playing. And Zep's piano-driven blusn n' boogie version of Eddie Cochran's "Somethin' Else" is pure rock n' roll fun. You will note that a couple of songs are here in two different versions...the two renditions of "Communication Breakdown" are quite similar, while the second takes of "I Can't Quit You Baby" is two minutes longer than the first. Disc 2 is highlighted by a tight, muscular "Immigrant Song", a swaggering "Heartbreaker", and a crushing rendition of the tough blues "Black Dog". Well, I could go on and on, really. A beautiful, evocative "Stairway To Heaven", a great take on the acoustic folk-ballad "That's The Way", and a 14-minute medley of "Whole Lotta Love", John Lee Hooker's "Boogie Chillun", Bukka White's "Fixin' To Die", Arthur Crudup's "That's All Right", and the wonderful R&B-stomper "A Mess Of Blues" (Pomus/Shuman). The sound and mixing on both discs is excellent, and the performances are almost uniformly great...rough and tough but by no means sloppy. Robert Plant is in fine form all the way through, and Jimmy Page completely fulfills the listener's expectations, playing crunchy rhythm guitar and creative, bluesy solos. The ten-to-twenty minute versions of "Dazed And Confused", "You Shook Me", and "How Many More Times" are perhaps something of an acquired taste, and this is not really the place for newcomers to start, but fans will be delighted by these fiery, energetic live-in-the-studio recordings by Led Zeppelin in their prime.
