Led Zeppelin has reformed with Jason Bonham wielding the drum sticks in lue of his father. Originally a one off show at the crappiest arena in Britishland (O2) but now the possibility of a world tour is a serious consideration of the ultimate rock gods, but thats not much to write about.
The real fun stuff is Mothership. Their most popular 26 songs remastered and put on one album. Now, I've heard Led Zeppelin on vinyl, plastic, and digitally. For once the remastered digital tracks sound better than the original vinyl. There are aspects of the music I have never been able to clearly make out until this. Just little details that get glossed over in older recordings explode into their full musical glory. Sounds are inherently difficult to describe with words. I guess the closest parallel I can present is Discovery's planet earth show in High definition versus standard quality. The old style just doesn't stand up.
