pizza slow (high quality)

The high school fan in me was pretty disappointed w/ the “becoming led zeppelin" thing that just came out. I bailed.

the second half is full of neat ‘68, '69, and ‘70 film of the band live, but not with the definitely available and in some cases highly regarded audio of those shows. Instead, studio or bbc session releases for completely different songs, and not even particularly good songs were used.

"Living Loving Maid”, to pick one they used, sucks, and was never in their actual live sets.

at least a band famously hostile to tapers (or passive to Peter Grant) and infamously noted for onion-on-belt songwriting credit lag didn’t profit off of tapers I guess? weird decisions.

also, it is full of stock footage cultural contextualization, which, as a device, ugh, the worst dreck of romanticism imo.
