Listening Party/ Press conference for Led Zeppelin remastered albums with Jimmy Page @ Olympia, Paris May 21 2014

Listening Party/ Press conference for Led Zeppelin remastered albums with special guest
Jimmy Page @ Olympia, Paris May 21 2014.

 Jimmy Page (above) in Paris on May 20 doing lots of interviews ahead of the Party @ Olympia tomorrow on May 21

The whole listening Party & interview with Jimmy Page is available HERE
The Olympia theater decorated and Dave Lewis from "Tight but loose" Led Zep magazine & website

The Olympia lobby and theater was beautifully decorated with posters all over the place and projections on the walls and ceilings.
 First thing to say is that there were lots of tickets available outside before the listening party if you were not invited, a guy from the record Cie tried to give away tickets and hardly found anyone without a ticket.
On the way in they gave you a pass, there were three different, each one with the cover of the next to be released album ( Led Zep I, II, II). We only could managed to get two (missing LZ II, if you have one left ?)
 Jimmy Page was introduced by MC ( couldn't get his name) talked for a few minutes and left
Then we had  some music to listen to, some live songs from the Olympia  “Good Times Bad Times / Communication Breakdown" &“You Shook Me” and then some alternate takes from different songs:  “Heartbreaker” (Rough Mix With Vocal) “Whole Lotta Love” (Rough Mix With Vocal) “Gallows Pole” (Rough Mix) “Since I’ve Been Loving You” (Rough Mix) “The Immigrant Song” (Alternate Mix) “Keys To The Highway / Trouble In Mind” (Rough Mix).
For each song there was footage played on the huge screen that was done for the occasion.

Jimmy Page came back to answer questions that were selected from the official website.
No one in the audience could ask a question too bad , it could have been interesting.
The party ended with a couple more songs to listen to.
This listening event wasn't a "World premiere" as there was one in NYC and one last week @ the famous Olympic studios in London on May 16 with a Q&A with Jimmy Page (see review here).
Ticket, passes, wristband for tonight

Everything you need to know about these remastered editions it's HERE

Led Zeppelin French Premiere (press) screening of Celebration Day @ Paris' Gaumont Opéra, Oct 03 2012

 LED ZEPPELIN's "Celebration Day" Press screening @ Gaumont Opéra
Paris, Oct 03 2012 10:00PM


Early wake up call this morning to attend the Press screening of Led Zeppelin's new cd/dvd to be out on November 19 in the whole world and with Premières in France @ Gaumont-Pathé movie theatres on Oct 18, check Pathé Live for the cinema listing playing the movie.

As usual in France, many journalists didn't turned up, I guess it was too early for them so we had plenty of space to enjoy the show.

Recorded live @ The O2 Arena in London on December 10 2007. 
5 years, it took them 5 years to finally released it.
Needless to tell you it's AMAZING.
It's taking the band a couple of songs to get into it ( "Good times bad times" -" Ramble on"), you can feel the tension on their faces, for the third one "Black Dog" things are getting more relaxed,then for the rest of the show starting with  "In my time of dying" it's faultless.
Recording is perfect of course, Robert Plant admitted that he re-recorded a couple of things, Page probably did too. They also edited out a couple of chat between songs.
Hard to believe that after such a gig they, in fact Robert, never wanted to play again, even though a show at the Stade de France was planned for the summer of  2008 and ... never happened.

The show is really how I remembered it from that Fantastic night @ the O2 Arena, Yes ! Rockerparis was there to attend such an historic event.
2 hours of pure Magic & Rock'n Roll.
It's a must see, specially in a cinema on a big screen.

Full Tracklisting & movie trailer HERE

Letz Zep @ Olympia, Paris Feb 01 2012

Letz Zep @ Olympia, Paris Feb 01 2012

More and more cover bands are playing big venues, specially in England or in the USof A.
We don't really have this over here in France.
I mean who's willing to pay between 50 & 80 euros to see a cover band they could see for free in a bar ?
I guess a lot of people and I was quite shocked to see that the Olympia is full for Letz Zep, it's all seated but packed with 40 something old geezers.
Hard to believe that a cover band is filling up a 2000 capacity theatre in Paris.
As tickets are very expensive I hope that it's worth every penny.
Great start with "Rock'n Roll", we're talking first league here... it's like seeing Led Zeppelin on stage, unbelievable, the singer looks like Robert Plant and sings like him, same for "Jimmy Page" & "John Paul Jones", only the drummer doesn't look like John Bonham at all.
The musicianship is high, the lightning is beautiful and the sound loud & clear.
All the songs are played perfectly with all the jams and medleys that Led Zeppelin used to do when they were performing.
The guitar player is terrific, nice look and the guitar playing is amazing.
Maybe the singer is sometimes a bit annoying trying to sing so high but he has all the famous stage moves.
They've played almost two hours over two sets with a intermission. Second set starting on acoustic with "Gallows pole" and a few more ...
Setlist was perfect: "D& C", "Stairway", "Kashmir"," baby I'm gonna leave you", "No quarter","Whole lotta love", ...
I never thought that it would be so good.
Great gig !
