The Song Remains the Same with Cam Herdt
Manage episode 398371685 series 3413889
Today on Rock Docs we discuss "The Song Remains the Same", a 1976 film about Led Zeppelin directed by Peter Clifton and Joe Massot.
For those who haven't seen the film, or whose memory of seeing it is lost in a drug-addled haze (as it was meant to be seen), the movie starts with LZ manager Peter Grant dressed as a 1930s gangster shooting a Nazi werewolf and it just gets weirder from there.
This is nominally a concert film (is it even a rock doc at all?) shot during the band's 1973 shows at Madison Square Garden, but it also includes footage shot on a soundstage in England made up to look like MSG, as well as fantasy sequences featuring each of the band's members.
Our guest, and the man who selected this cinematic masterpiece for us to review, is comedian and actor Cam Herdt. Check out Cam on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/mistercam/?hl=en and on his own Best Show Ever on the Osiris Network: https://linktr.ee/bestshowever
