? Rhino"Rhino Entertainment is excited to announce the release of Led Zeppelin's Mothership, a two-CD comprehensive collection on November 13, 2007, as well as the release of The Song Remains The Same on DVD and the accompanying soundtrack, on November 20, 2007. Don?t forget Led Zeppelin will be reuniting for the first time in 20 years on November 26, 2007 at the O2 Arena in London, England, in honor or Ahmet Ertegun.



"[...] Mothership [is] a 24-track, two-CD comprehensive collection that spans their illustrious career. All eight of the band's classic studio albums are represented here, with the tracks being personally selected by Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and John Paul Jones. Mothership includes landmark songs such as 'Whole Lotta Love,' 'Immigrant Song,' 'Kashmir,' 'Rock And Roll,' 'Dazed And Confused,' and 'Stairway To Heaven.' The set will also include new liner notes by famed rock writer David Fricke.

"Originally released in 1976, The Song Remains The Same soundtrack album of the concert film features songs from the band's three-night stint at Madison Square Garden in July 1973. On November 20, The Song Remains The Same soundtrack gets the deluxe reissue treatment, with the band members overseeing the remixing and remastering of the original release. The new version of the soundtrack includes six songs that were not on the original 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 Academy Award-winning director Cameron Crowe (Almost Famous).

"Slated for a simultaneous release, Warner Home Video debuts brand-new DVD editions of The Song Remains The Same, now for the first time with all 14 songs from the original concert. The DVD features newly remixed and remastered sound, 5.1 Dolby Digital surround sound, and boasts more than 40 minutes of added bonus material*, including never-before-released performance footage of 'Over The Hills And Far Away' and 'Celebration Day;' plus performances of 'Misty Mountain Hop' and 'The Ocean;' a rare 1976 BBC interview with Robert Plant and Peter Grant; vintage TV footage from the Drake Hotel robbery during the New York concert stand; and a Cameron Crowe radio show.

"One of the most eagerly awaited concerts of the decade will celebrate the life and work of Ahmet Ertegun, founder of Atlantic Records and much missed mentor to some of the greatest names in music.

"Profits from this amazing show will go to the Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund which provides students with annual scholarships to universities in the UK, USA and Turkey. In addition, a music scholarship open to all will be established at Ravensbourne College in the UK.

"The incomparable Led Zeppelin will headline the tribute to the man who founded Atlantic Records in 1947. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones will be joined by Jason Bonham, the son of their late drummer John Bonham."
