Page is a tremendously sloppy player, but the punch behind it makes it very exciting to listen to.

What's your take on the DVD? I've read some mixed things and I'd be interested to hear a first hand account.

Mike,
You hit the nail on the head! Page is really sloppy, but it makes for an interesting sound. The first time I listened to these live versions, I thought they were a little different!
The DVD is a must have if you are a Zep fan. The audio and video is stunning. The first disc is a concert at the Royal Albert Hall (1970). You will be amazed at how good they were this early in their careers. The second disc is the concerts at Madison Square Garden (1973), Earls Court (1975) and Knebworth (1979). There is over 230 minutes of concert footage plus another 1 1/2 hours of extra material.
You can read the reviews on Amazon.com, but do yourself a favor and get a copy. You won't be dissapointed.
Cheers,
Shaun

Pink Martini and Bebel Gilberto. Just picked up both Pink Martini cd's (I'd been listening to a ripped copy of their first) and also picked up Bebel's self titled cd, as well as a cd of remixes of that same cd.

Good stuff.

The Talking Heads "Stop Making Sense" DVD followed by a marathon Beach Boys "Good Vibrations" boxed set session. Unless the wife and her friends come home early and tipsy, in which case it will be the Rolling Stones and bad '80's club music (which at least has lots of bass, I guess).

Richard Thompson - "Grizzly Man". This is the soundtrack to the Werner Herzog film about Timothy Treadwell. Just got it in the mail today, and so far it's amazing.

I love the most recent Pink Martini CD. A couple tracks are mastered a tinge hot, though. It's only really noticeable at high volumes, though.

Pink Martini??!! I thought my fiance was the only one to listen to them. She actually made me go to a live concert of them here in DC a few months ago.
