EXTD= REVIEW:  Led Zeppelin's reunion for an Ahmet Ertegun tribute con
EXTD=cert in November 2007 (pushed back a couple of weeks due to a fin
EXTD=ger injury Jimmy Page sustained during rehearsals) seemed like a 
EXTD=spur of the moment thing -- but how spontaneous could it have bee
EXTD=n if it just happened to coincide with the release of an expanded
EXTD= The Song Remains the Same on both CD and DVD, the debut of their
EXTD= catalog as digital downloads, and the new two-disc compilation M
EXTD=othership as a sampler of the whole shebang? Considering this ful
EXTD=l-scale, multi-prong assault -- which also included a new album b
EXTD=y Robert Plant, after all -- it was probably not all that spontan
EXTD=eous. Such a precise attack suits this most mythic of classic roc
EXTD=k groups, who always benefited from an enormous sense of scale. W
EXTD=eighing in at two discs and 24 tracks, Mothership has a sense of 
EXTD=scale that the previous round of compilations -- the two-part Ear
EXTD=ly Days & Latter Days, delivered in 1999 and 2000 respectively --
EXTD= lacked, not just because it pushes these two phases together but
EXTD= because it is heavy on the heavy epics, emphasizing Zeppelin's s
EXTD=heer sonic ballast over either their lighter or more idiosyncrati
EXTD=c moments. This effects the second disc more than the first, as t
EXTD=he band started out heavy and expanded outward, and while it woul
EXTD=d have been nice if "Fool in the Rain" represented In Through the
EXTD= Out Door instead of "In the Evening," this is a minor quibble as
EXTD= Mothership hits the obvious high points without seeming perfunct
EXTD=ory. And that, along with Page's new remastering, is the real sel
EXTD=ling point behind Mothership: as a compilation it is both grippin
EXTD=g listening and a good introduction to this very album-oriented b
EXTD=and, which is what makes it a welcome addition to their catalog. 
EXTD=[The deluxe edition of Mothership contains a DVD with highlights 
EXTD=from their eponymous live DVD -- it's a nice bonus but really, yo
EXTD=u'd be better off getting the full set.]  -- Stephen Thomas Erlew
EXTD=ine\n\n\nAmazon.com Editorial Review\nFor years, as playlists and
EXTD= multidisc players put Led Zeppelin tracks into a mix, there was 
EXTD=a perpetual need to adjust the volume when Zep came on. Their tun
EXTD=es languished in the haze of substandard remastering--until now, 
EXTD=at least for the 24 tracks on Mothership and the final fullness o
EXTD=f the new Song Remains the Same reissue. For its part, Mothership
EXTD='s crisper, warmer audio owes its heft to the troika of Robert Pl
EXTD=ant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, who helped oversee the maste
EXTD=ring, bringing out untold shades even in the throes of "Heartbrea
EXTD=ker" and the sinews of "No Quarter." It's an impressive sonic lea
EXTD=p. Where tinny high-ends and muffled lows used to co-exist, fatte
EXTD=r and louder depths prevail. It's ever more astonishing that Zep 
EXTD=got on with just four blokes. You can quibble with the 24 tracks 
EXTD=here (where's "The Ocean"?), but the band picked each track here,
EXTD= from the stone-cold locks ("Communication Breakdown" and "Stairw
EXTD=ay to Heaven," no, duh) to the robust throb of "When the Levee Br
EXTD=eaks." As for "The Ocean," you can find that in fantastically ful
EXTD=l form, along with five other gems on the newly remastered Song R
EXTD=emains the Same, which shows up for 2007's holiday season on DVD,
EXTD= too. Only rarely have four lads from England made so memorable a
EXTD=n auditory and visual blast. --Andrew Bartlett \n\nAmazon.com Pro

EXTD= day, the compilation "Early Days and Latter Days" was released,

EXTD=\n"Mothership" (2 CDs, 24 tracks, 140 min.) is a virtual copy of 
EXTD="Earlier Days and Latter Days": 20 of the 23 tracks from that app

EXTD= Love" to "Black Dog" to Kashmir", and on and on. To mix is up ju
EXTD=st a little bit, "What Is and What Should Never Be", "The Battle 
EXTD=of Evermore" and "Ten Years Gone" were dropped from "Early Days a
EXTD=nd Latter Days", and these 4 songs were added instead: "Ramble On
EXTD=", Heartbreaker", "Over the Hills and Far Away" and "D'Yer Mak'er
EXTD=". Too me those are minor changes on the fringes. It all sounds t
EXTD=errific, of course, due to yet more remastering from Jimmy Page. 
EXTD=\n\nAs to the bonus DVD, there is nothing new here. This is a sam
EXTD=pling/reduced version of the 2003 "Led Zeppelin" DVD: in order, t
EXTD=here are 9 songs from the 1970 Royal Albert Hall show, 4 songs fr
EXTD=om the 1973 Madison Square Garden show that produced "The Song Re
EXTD=mains the Same" movie, 3 songs from the 1975 Earl's Court show, a
EXTD=nd 4 songs from the 1979 Knebworth show. As such all performances
EXTD= are (and sound) pretty much terrific. \n\nThe bottom line is thi

EXTD=ning 13 people on this planet who after all this time do not have
EXTD= either the Led Zeppelin albums proper or the 2002 "Early Days an
EXTD=d Later Days" compilation, by all means drop everything, and orde

EXTD= us, I fail to see the new relevance of this compilation, as ther

EXTD=far too many Zeppelin classics, November 13, 2007 \nBy  Taylor X 
EXTD=(Las Vegas, NV (USA))\nMothership (Recorded 1968-1980, Released 2
EXTD=007.) A Led Zeppelin hits compilation. \n\nINTRODUCTION: \nLed Ze
EXTD=ppelin. They're rock gods, enough said. From their early years ri
EXTD=ght up to their disbanding following the death of drummer John Bo
EXTD=nham, they rocked the world. Their legacy stands strong to this d
EXTD=ay. A few compilations have tried to cover the band's career over
EXTD= the years - none successfully. How does the latest attempt at th
EXTD=is fare? \n\nOVERVIEW: \nLed Zeppelin released the 2CD, 24-track 
EXTD=Mothership compilation in mid November 2007. A special edition of
EXTD= the compilation also includes a bonus DVD, and the tracks for th
EXTD=e set were selected by the surviving members of the band. \n\nREV
EXTD=IEW: \nI'll never forget a review I read on Amazon a few years ba
EXTD=ck, a review whose title summed up the situation at hand here per
EXTD=fectly: "Zeppelin ain't no greatest hits band." Mothership, sadly
EXTD=, proves itself as no exception to this rule. The tunes are timel
EXTD=ess, but it's impossible to make a good Led Zeppelin compilation.
EXTD= Too many worthy tracks have been omitted, often in favor of unwo
EXTD=rthy ones. \n\n-LED ZEPPELIN (1968): \nTRACKS INCLUDED: Good Time
EXTD=s Bad Times, Communication Breakdown, Dazed and Confused, Babe I'
EXTD=m Gonna Leave you \nCOMMENTS: First album gets pretty good emphas
EXTD=is on here, though I was disappointed to see You Shook Me, Your T
EXTD=ime Is Gonna Come, and I Can't Quit You Baby didn't make the cut.
EXTD= These were some of the band's finest blues-style songs, and I wi
EXTD=sh they would have made the cut. \n\n-LED ZEPPELIN II (1969): \nT
EXTD=RACKS INCLUDED: Whole Lotta Love, Ramble On, Heartbreaker \nCOMME
EXTD=NTS: These are great songs, no questions asked. But too many trac
EXTD=ks are missing. Where are What Is And What Never Should Be, The L
EXTD=emon Song, Moby Dick, and Thank You? \n\n-LED ZEPPELIN III (1970)
EXTD=: \nTRACKS INCLUDED: Immigrant Song, Since I've Been Loving You \n
EXTD=COMMENTS: Of the "first four" albums, this is the underrated "bas
EXTD=tard child" one of the bunch that no one appreciates. Emphasis de
EXTD=served far more than just two cuts. I was devastated to see Gallo
EXTD=w's Pole didn't make the cut. \n\n-FOURTH ALBUM (1971): \nTRACKS 
EXTD=INCLUDED: Rock And Roll, Black Dog, When The Levee Breaks, Stairw
EXTD=ay To Heaven \nCOMMENTS: This was by far the hardest album to rep
EXTD=resent in this compilation since nearly every track on it is a hi
EXTD=t. Stairway belongs, no questions asked. BUT WHERE, MAY I ASK, IS
EXTD= THE IS THE ACOUSTIC MASTERPIECE, "GOING TO CALIFORNIA"? And wher
EXTD=e's the classic pop-rock hit, Misty Mountain Hop? The band should
EXTD= have omitted Levee in favor of these two tracks (I LOVE Levee, d
EXTD=on't get be wrong, but compilation-wise, I feel this would have b
EXTD=een the smart move.) \n\n-HOUSES OF THE HOLY (1973): \nTRACKS INC
EXTD=LUDED: Song Remains The Same, Over the Hills and Far Away, D'Yer 
EXTD=M'Aker, No Quarter \nCOMMENTS: WHY THE HELL DOES THIS COMPILATION
EXTD= OMIT "DANCING DAYS" AND "THE OCEAN"!? These are my two personal 
EXTD=favorite Zeppelin cuts, not to mention two of the band's biggest 
EXTD=hits. Instead we're forced to endure D'Yer M'Aker, probably the b
EXTD=and's WEAKEST hit! (Not a bad song but the omissions were more wo
EXTD=rthy.) \n\n-PHYSICAL GRAFFITI (1975): \nTRACKS INCLUDED: Trampled
EXTD= Under Foot, Houses of the Holy, Kashmir \nCOMMENTS: Considering 
EXTD=this album's double-album nature, I was wondering how the band wo
EXTD=uld manage representing it on here. For the most part they do a g
EXTD=ood job. My only complaint here is the omission of The Rover. \n\n
EXTD=-PRESENCE (1976): \nTRACKS INCLUDED: Achilles' Last Stand, Nobody
EXTD='s Fault But Mine \nCOMMENTS: Good choices. No complaints here. \n
EXTD=\n-IN THROUGH THE OUT DOOR (1979): \nTRACKS INCLUDED: In The Even
EXTD=ing, All My Love \nCOMMENTS: Two great choices from the band's sw
EXTD=an song (no put intended there.) But I really missed Fool in the 
EXTD=Rain, one of the band's biggest hits. Still, these two songs are 
EXTD=superior. \n\nOTHER COMMENTS: \nHey Hey What Can I Do wasn't incl
EXTD=uded. Why is this song so difficult to get on CD? \n\nOVERALL: \n
EXTD=Overall this compilation is disappointing. If you're a casual fan
EXTD= who doesn't have the cash to buy the entire Zeppelin catalogue, 
EXTD=this will give you a solid fix of the band's material. But it's f
EXTD=or casual fans only, who don't already own some Zeppelin (and is 
EXTD=there anyone on the face of the Earth who is a rock fan that does
EXTD=n't?) Not even the members of the band could create a compilation
EXTD= that works. Instead of investing in this lackluster compilation,
EXTD= stick to your old albums - and use your saved money to buy the n
EXTD=ewly-remastered CD of The Song Remains The Same. \n\nEDITION NOTE
EXTD=S: \nIt's a brand new compilation. Any major retailer of CDs will
EXTD= have it in stock. \n\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nThis "Mother

EXTD=noonions" (Holmdel,NJ USA)\nSure,these classic-rock war horses so

EXTD=viously did especially if you're a high-end stereo audiophile,tho
EXTD=ugh frankly IMHO I can't tell much difference from the 1993 Compl

EXTD= be better off waiting for the classic albums to be remastered or
EXTD=,if sound isn't all that important to you, get the 10-CD box set 
EXTD=metioned above to collect all of them in one swoop.Led Zeppelin w
EXTD=ere strictly an album-oriented band,and compilations like this(an
EXTD=d Led Zeppelin Remasters,which has almost the same songs like thi
EXTD=s one) doesn't do the mighty group justice.If you're a newbie to 
EXTD=Led Zep,this is a fine starter(hence the four-star rating),but on
EXTD=ce you know,the true "motherships"-the individual albums-are what
EXTD= you need.(The DVD,which culls 20 live performances from theLed Z
EXTD=eppelin set,is equally superfluous.) \n\n\nHalf.com Album Notes\n
EXTD=This 24-track compilation was specially curated by Page, Plant, a
EXTD=nd Jones, and represents the juiciest moments from Led Zeppelin's
EXTD= illustrious career. The songlist includes such classic Zep hits 
EXTD=as "Stairway to Heaven," "Whole Lotta Love," and "Kashmir." David
EXTD= Fricke's liner notes are scholarly but steeped in real fandom.
