That's a fascinating response to the Led Zeppelin box set. To me, it felt like a celebration and reimagining of their legacy, with each of those bespoke "playlists" Page put together forging connections across albums and years that weren't immediately obvious. Not to mention the improved sound, which was a definite upgrade to the first round of CDs. And to someone who had waved the flag for them at their lowest ebb among "the hip" (i.e. the 80s), it felt like vindication.
HM definitely a sound upgrade, and he finally went back and finished the rest... at the time it struck me as shallow, perhaps I should listen through again. I really enjoy the BBC stuff and even the "reunion"...
