Page & Plant: 1998-08-23 Cologne, Germany (Pro Shot DVD)

This is an superb performance as well as quality copy of the Page & Plant Rockpalast show in 1998.  With the pouring rain, it looks like you could throw a penny into the audience and it would never hit the ground because the place it packed and very densely populated.  This is one of the best, most high energy shows I've seen on the 1998 touring the guys did.  You can tell Plant "is feeling it" (he even says so) and so is Page.  The rest of the band is as well and everyone is at their best.  They rock out and put on a stellar performance.

Only one thing could make this a better viewing experience.  And that is to get the double layer DVD (DL DVD) of the show again.  I believe it comes with LPCM, 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround, and DTS audio.  I had it, but it was lost in a 2010 hard drive crash before I could ever get it to a DL DVD.  I'm looking for a replacement but am happy with this DVD at the same time.

It really sickens me that Page and Plant didn't decide, "OK, we did our 1995 solo tour...let's get John Paul Jones and use Michael Lee on drums and have a Zeppelin reunion" in this 1998 tour.  This was the perfect time because Plant's voice was sounding great and he could have handled it with no problems.  Heck, just watch this show and you'll see for yourself.

This is a very Zeppelin sounding performance and I highly recommend it for any fan!  The sound is awesome and the picture is too.  As always, Cosmic Energy does the DVD up right!

I hope you enjoy the concert...

  3. Hi Greg,

    You're not nagging :-) I just saw this today though. I can post audio but will take me a while unless I already have it ripped. I've got a lot going on right now and I'm trying to get a few other projects I've promised done. But I will get to this for you as soon as I am able to.

    Keep a watch for it...
