Reggie29 Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Official DVD because of the content. TSRTS is an awesome live video as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Masson Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I couldn't really answer that question. DVD is a really wonderful compilation, and perhaps in a sense better than TSRTS. But the thing is, TSRTS came out when the band was still active, and it has meant so much to me over the years, ever since I saw it in the cinema back then. I still love it, wholly apart from the shortcomings. The scenes they made, for example, may be a bit Spinal Tap, but all these years later they also in a way add charm to it, and they underline that this is something that was done in the 1970's.

ninelives Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Although the dvd has a lot more footage from over the years which is great to see, TSRTS was the first time I experienced what they were like live (since I never saw them in concert) so I think it'll always have a special place to me.

LukeTheDuke Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Zep DVD is like the greatest rock DVD of all time yes! that's absolutely true and it was the first dvd that made the difference on video "home" music. A masterpiece IMO of course ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxie Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I like 'em both but am partial to the LZ DVD. Can't go wrong with a little bit of Zep from each era. (well too bad a few songs from '77 weren't included) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comrickZep Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I like 'em all. Maybe one is better than the other but like i said , i like 'em all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMAZONIC Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 (edited) I like the TSRST video but I am not that crazy about it, despite I have always loved their '73 concert era. The 2003 DVD is the closest to a perfect Zep compilation of the musical path of the band (even if it's missing some '77 bits). I remember the sales guy at the store where I bought it, he just said to me :" IT'S UNBELIEVABLE AWESOME, girl! You're gonna love it! " and that's what happened. The first disc with all the "vintage" stuff (Royal Albert Hall, the Denmark show, the Supershow, etc) is a gem! Priceless.

docron Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I've got them both, but DVD takes priority 75% of the time. I hate the editing of TSRTS. It's a bummer the guys didn't wear the same clothes all 3 nights so when they switched between nights they wouldn't all the sudden have different clothes on... editing 3 concerts together just kills the overall flow and energy of the concerts there. I'm a strong believer that the whole is more important that it's parts. So what if this song was better on a different night... I like the group and don't care if they flub up once in a great while. On the other hand, RAH is from the same night but songs are cut out and set-list rearranged... I like this form of editing a little better as the general energy level of the concert as a whole is not lost. This performance being my favorite part of DVD, it gets my vote. DVD FTW!

aen27 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 It's very hard to decribe. SRTS isn't all over the place, but it's as important as the LZ DVD. I love the LZ DVD, but I love SRTS, too. But as was said earlier, SRTS was put together when they were together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comrickZep Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I personally like The Song Remains the Same better as i grew up with it and have cool memories of seeing it with my childhood buddies at the old theater but in the end the Led Zeppelin DVD is a better DVD.

Electrophile Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 The Led Zeppelin DVD by a long shot. There's just so much incredible footage that I personally had never seen before. I had seen the footage from TSTRS before the DVD came out. So it wasn't new to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would tend to agree though the SRTS was the first glimpse I had of them live so there's always a special place it will hold for me.

BlackDog71 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Zep DVD easily. Although both are Zep DVD's so they are great automatically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMcLov1n Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 The Led Zeppelin DVD is definitely the best. But I want it in Blu-Ray dammit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdr Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 If you would ask "Which do you prefer" it would have been a tough question (is Zep, so I love them, both). But since the question is "which is better", I'm affraid that it will be the DVD (DVD's material > the musical material from TSRTS - in quantity and quality) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comrickZep Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) Zep DVD easily. Although both are Zep DVD's so they are great automatically. I agree with that statement totally but i lean towards TSRTS just because it goes back in time to the day for me, really good memories (for what i can remember). \ Edited March 23, 2010 by comrickZep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ady Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I voted for "DVD", but I wouldn't want to be without "TSRTS". I think it was the first VHS I ever bought and it cost £20 back in 1985! I only had £8 on me and my parents paid the other £12. I still have it, but it's long been worn out as I must've played it hundreds of times in my youth and they don't last forever. I've since bought it on DVD twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepps_apprentice Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 The Led Zeppelin DVD is definitely the best. But I want it in Blu-Ray dammit! Ive been saying this for a while now. i want TSRTS (even though its already out) on Blu-Ray and the Zeppelin DVD!! i have IMGL on BluRay, well worth the money. but my Led Zeppelin DVD box cover is getting worn. :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
