The concert was a tribute to Ahmet Ertegan, creator of the record company Atlantic Records, of the company that introduced Led Zeppelin to the world audience from their first steps, at the end of his decade 60. Its recording on DVD has captivated audiences and critics alike, where it has been shown so far: riveting, conveys all the excitement of the live concert, a culmination of the band's seismic career, which gives their fans a sense of their greatness, the privilege of seeing "the Gods in action" up close.

With legendary communication power, genuine and unimaginably talented, led zeppelin have always been four top musicians, who managed to play as a band and stamp the 70s the same way the Beatles stamped the 60s. Complex personalities, with a sense of their time, they created one of the most enduring bodies of compositions and performances in the history of rock music.

The four English musicians appeared in the late 60s, took off in the mid-70s, they wrote some of the most influential songs in rock music, they sold 300 millions of albums, they were recorded in the Guinness Book of Records for the number of their concerts and the number of spectators, they became No1 band in the world and when they disbanded, the 1980, they had conquered the absolute pinnacle and secured the title of the greatest rock band of all time.

Starting with the blues, Led Zeppelin experimented with a wide range of musical genres: British, Celtic and American folk music, early rock n' roll, jazz, country, funk, soul, reggae and their sound stood out for its speed and intensity, the unusual rhythmic patterns, the humor, thoughtfulness, its mysticism and refinement. For many fans and critics, led zeppelin perfected baroque rock music and launched one of the most demanding campaigns in music history traveling through folk tradition, the Delta blues, Bach, Indian and other non-Western music and disregarding tradition.
