==Overview==
The recording of the album and the film took place during three nights of concerts at New York's [[Madison Square Garden]], during the band's [[Led Zeppelin North American Tour 1973|1973 concert tour of the United States]]. All songs were recorded by [[Eddie Kramer]] using the Wally Heider Mobile Studio truck, and later mixed at [[Electric Lady Studios]] in New York and [[Trident Studios]] in London.

The album was released on 28 September 1976, by [[Swan Song Records]]. The sleeve design depicted a dilapidated movie house located on Old Street film studios in London, which was used by the group for rehearsals prior to their [[Led Zeppelin North American Tour 1973|1973 tour]].

Upon its release, the album received mixed reviews, with some critics considering it to be over-produced.<ref>Chris Welch (1994) ''Led Zeppelin'', London: Orion Books. ISBN 0-85797-930-3, p. 68.</ref> Indeed, the band's members themselves have since expressed a lack of fondness for the recording. Jimmy Page has admitted that the end product was hardly the best representation of Led Zeppelin as a live band:

Jimmy Page has admitted that the end product was hardly the best representation of Led Zeppelin as a live band: {{Quote|Obviously we were committed to putting this album out, although it wasn't necessarily the best live stuff we have.

In an interview he gave to rock journalist [[Cameron Crowe]], Page elaborated: {{Quote|As far as Led Zeppelin's studio recordings went, every single one of them has a certain ambiance, certain atmospherics that made them special. When it came to the live shows, we were always trying to move things forward and we certainly weren't happy leaving them as they were. The songs were always in a state of change. On ''[The] Song Remains the Same'' you can hear the urgency and not much else. The live shows were an extension of the albums.<ref>Liner notes by [[Cameron Crowe]] for ''[[The Complete Studio Recordings (Led Zeppelin box set)|The Complete Studio Recordings]]''.</ref>}}

==2007 reissue==
''The Song Remains The Same'' soundtrack album was reissued on CD on 20 November 2007, with the surviving band members having overseen the remixing and remastering of the original release. This coincided with the re-issue of the film, available on DVD. The new version of the soundtrack included six songs that were not on the original album release: "Black Dog", "[[Over the Hills and Far Away]]", "[[Misty Mountain Hop]]", "Since I've Been Loving You", "The Ocean" and "Heartbreaker", plus new liner notes by Cameron Crowe.

Thus, with the 2007 re-release of both the album and film, the songs were synchronized so that the full set-list from the concerts was available on both, with each song mixed the same way (the only exceptions being "Bron-Yr-Aur" and "Autumn Lake", both of which continued to be absent from the album).

<blockquote>We have revisited ''The Song Remains The Same'' and can now offer the complete set as played at Madison Square Garden. This differs substantially from the original soundtrack released in 1976, and highlights the technical prowess of [[Kevin Shirley]], who worked with us on ''[[How the West Was Won (album)|How The West Was Won]]''.<ref>[http://www.livedaily.com/news/13103.html "Led Zeppelin postpones reunion show"], liveDaily.com, November 2, 2007.</ref></blockquote>

Due to legal complications, the band decided not to change the video portion of the original movie for the re-release.<ref>Liner notes by [[Cameron Crowe]] for ''The Song Remains the Same'', reissued version, 2007.</ref> Instead, Shirley created an entirely new mix of the three 1973 Madison Square Garden concerts so that the audio portion of the film would better match the on-screen visuals. The audio on the new CD release was nearly identical to the soundtrack of the new DVD release. One difference was that the songs included on the CDs that were not featured in the original movie were included as bonus tracks on the DVD.<ref>[http://www.modernguitars.com/archives/003887.html Kevin Shirley Talks about Revisiting Led Zeppelin's The Song Remains The Same]</ref>

On July 29, 2008, a 4-LP edition of the 2007 re-issue, on 180 gram audiophile vinyl, was released. It was presented in a deluxe archival two-piece box with foil-stamping. It includes a 12-page oversized full-color booklet with dozens of previously unpublished stills from the film, as well as four individual jackets with new and unique artwork. A special white vinyl edition was also printed in very limited numbers. Just 200 were produced, with only 100 being made available to the public (only from ledzeppelin.com). These are now very highly sought-after collectors items.

The Song Remains the Same is the soundtrack album of the concert film of the same name by the English rock band Led Zeppelin. The album was originally released in 1976, before being remastered and re-issued in 2007.

Overview

The recording of the album and the film took place during three nights of concerts at New York's Madison Square Garden, during the band's 1973 concert tour of the United States. All songs were recorded by Eddie Kramer using the Wally Heider Mobile Studio truck, and later mixed at Electric Lady Studios in New York and Trident Studios in London.

The album was released on 28 September 1976, by Swan Song Records. The sleeve design depicted a dilapidated movie house located on Old Street film studios in London, which was used by the group for rehearsals prior to their 1973 tour.

Upon its release, the album received mixed reviews, with some critics considering it to be over-produced.[1] Indeed, the band's members themselves have since expressed a lack of fondness for the recording. Jimmy Page has admitted that the end product was hardly the best representation of Led Zeppelin as a live band:

‘ Obviously we were committed to putting this album out, although it wasn't necessarily the best live stuff we have. I don't look upon it as a live album...it's essentially a soundtrack.[2] ’

In an interview he gave to rock journalist Cameron Crowe, Page elaborated:

‘ As far as Led Zeppelin's studio recordings went, every single one of them has a certain ambiance, certain atmospherics that made them special. When it came to the live shows, we were always trying to move things forward and we certainly weren't happy leaving them as they were. The songs were always in a state of change. On [The] Song Remains the Same you can hear the urgency and not much else. The live shows were an extension of the albums.[3] ’

Until both the album and the film were remastered and re-released in 2007, there were significant differences between the two in terms of the songs included on each. These differences were as follows:

Of the songs that both the album and the film had in common, some of the recordings featured on the album were of different performances from those in the film. Other tracks which were recorded at Madison Square Garden, but omitted from both the film and the soundtrack album, included 'The Ocean' and 'Misty Mountain Hop'.

2007 reissue

The Song Remains The Same soundtrack album was reissued on CD on 20 November 2007, with the surviving band members having overseen the remixing and remastering of the original release. This coincided with the re-issue of the film, available on DVD. The new version of the soundtrack included six songs that were not on the original album release: 'Black Dog', 'Over the Hills and Far Away', 'Misty Mountain Hop', 'Since I've Been Loving You', 'The Ocean' and 'Heartbreaker', plus new liner notes by Cameron Crowe.

Thus, with the 2007 re-release of both the album and film, the songs were synchronized so that the full set-list from the concerts was available on both, with each song mixed the same way (the only exceptions being 'Bron-Yr-Aur' and 'Autumn Lake', both of which continued to be absent from the album).

Jimmy Page stated:

‘ We have revisited The Song Remains The Same and can now offer the complete set as played at Madison Square Garden. This differs substantially from the original soundtrack released in 1976, and highlights the technical prowess of Kevin Shirley, who worked with us on How The West Was Won.[4] ’

Due to legal complications, the band decided not to change the video portion of the original movie for the re-release.[5] Instead, Shirley created an entirely new mix of the three 1973 Madison Square Garden concerts so that the audio portion of the film would better match the on-screen visuals. The audio on the new CD release was nearly identical to the soundtrack of the new DVD release. One difference was that the songs included on the CDs that were not featured in the original movie were included as bonus tracks on the DVD.[6]

On 29 July 2008, a 4-LP edition of the 2007 re-issue, on 180 gram audiophile vinyl, was released. It was presented in a deluxe archival two-piece box with foil-stamping. It includes a 12-page oversized full-color booklet with dozens of previously unpublished stills from the film, as well as four individual jackets with new and unique artwork. A special white vinyl edition was also printed in very limited numbers. Just 200 were produced, with only 100 being made available to the public (only from ledzeppelin.com). These are now very highly sought-after collectors items.
