To: Mr. Mojo
I picked up the 2 DVD set at our local Barnes and Noble, w/ Circuit City and Best Buy being sold out. Paid about an $8 premium but well worth it.

This is an astounding collection and show that LZ was ready for prime time early on. They were indeed unique and IMHO deserve a top slot in the Pantheon of Rock Legends. I gained new respect for Plant who I was impressed with as a 20 year old at Royal Albert Hall. These guys were, like Tull, a band w/ a unique personality, and produced transcendental and majestic music which only grows in respect w/ time.

Also seeing Whole Lotto Love and a few other songs, I realized how Dionysian they were and left the Stones little quarter in the super sexual 60's/ early 70's.

All of this should justify us as fans and to solidify their reputation as a TRex group every bit as good as the Beatles and Stones and Floyd.

I suspect that Page was responsible for this great effort in laying down the celluloid history and a brilliant marketing coup.
