Good buy!
Impressed with time of delivery as well. CD was in almost new condition. Great overall.


Zeppelin's latter years are covered nicely here
And this 'Latter Years: The Best Of Led Zeppelin, Vol. Led Zeppelin's music is legendary. 2' showcases it.

This set spans the legendary 'Houses of the Holy' through 'In Through The Out Door,' which is a nice, 6 year period (1973-1979) covered.

What's here is great. 'Kashmir,' 'The Song Remains The Same,' 'Achilles Last Stand,' 'Trampled Under Foot' and 'No Quarter' all appear on this set for your listening pleasure. And, Atlantic did a wonderful job remastering it.

But, there's a ton missing. Where are 'Over The Hills And Far Away,' 'Dancing Days,' 'D'yer M'aker,' 'Custard Pie,' 'Royal Orleans' and 'South Bound Suarez'? These are all huge Zeppelin hits, and it's a shame to leave them off.

Overall, if you want to get hooked on Zeppelin's music, than give this CD a shot. But this is a great set to own if you are a Zeppelin fan, and if you are new to their music, I would recommend this set along with 'Early Days. '

This is highly recommended. ENJOY!!!.


Good, but you'll end up buying the albums anyway
You'll probably end up doing so anyway. A nice compilation, but do yourself a favor, save your money, and just buy the original albums.


Definitive Later Zep
All of the good songs from Houses of the Holy are here except for D'yer Maker. This CD collects the best of Led Zeppelin, Houses of the Holy to Coda. No Quarter, Kashmir, Trampled Under Foot, and Achilles' Last stand are highlights on a CD that never lets up. It's better than The Doors best of, The Doors period. Together the two discs make up a long set list, or all the Zep a casual fan would need. Only a diehard addict would want all the studio albums or a box set. Love it. .


Song Remains the Same poor version, Is there better?
you can hear the dif when you turn it up. Well these 2 songs I was looking for in newer cd like this to see if they are more powerful than original due to clean up, and they are, Achilles Last Stand, Nobody's Fault But Mine. loudness is not the same as power, you can have loudness but that doesnt mean you have the power of the song, you can have power, and that can mean "real" clear loudness.

However, the one song I really bought this for, because I really love Bonham in it, is Song Remains The Same. But it falls way soft. no power at all. Same as No Quarter, flat. Is because the songs are much older and on "lesser" masters? well I dont get that then because Who The West Was Won is 1972 and is the best sounding cd around.

So anyhoo, can anyone tell me a great version of Song Remains? I know the Live version on the movie sound track is the best I have heard, but I am not going to buy that just for one song, for I have all the rest of the songs elsewhere. I already wasted money on this cd. How The West Was Won is great, only it doesnt have Song Remains, and everything else after 1 and 2, but I know I have heard a really good version of Song Remains.

Is there another live version of it? or do I just have to suck it up and buy the movie cd to get it. or is this even the one i am used to hearing on the radio at times? I know I hear a live version, Its the only one I know of. the drumming on it really pops. way more than the studio version.

okay okay, thanks in advance for any info, you can post in the "comment" area below my review, thanks.
