After a charity show in London and a six-date tour in 1999 that was captured for an album (Live at the Greek), the Black Crowes and Jimmy Page returned in 2000 for a nationwide tour that featured a conglomeration of Led Zeppelin favorites and songs new and old from the Crowes. This pro shot DVD from a night at Jones Beach captures Page and the band delivering a number of high-class Led Zeppelin classics, among them 'Celebration Day', 'The Lemon Song', 'Heartbreaker', and 'Whole Lotta Love', as well as numbers that nobody would have expected. Tracks like 'Ten Years Gone', 'Your Time Is Gonna Come' or 'What Is And What Should Never Be' were convincingly delivered thanks to Page and the two Crowes guitarists Rich Robinson and Audley Freed, who not only have the necessary technique but also the right feeling for this kind of material. Chris Robinson delivers an unbelievably powerful and dramatic vocal performance.
