The mighty Zeppelin flies again. Atlantic
Records expects big sales for the new Led Zeppelin DVD and triple CD
live album, How The West Was Won, when they hit stores later this month.
The record company has said that the DVD will ship quadruple-platinum in
the U.S., and the live CD will ship platinum. (Platinum = 1 million copies).
"The enormous pre-release response from
retailers and fans alike to the announcement of these ZEPPELIN releases
dramatically demonstrates the enduring power, timeless influence, and undiminished
popularity of this truly phenomenal band," said Atlantic Group Co-Chairman/CEO
Val Azzoli in a statement. "To have been associated with ZEPPELIN for their
entire career has been an honor and a privilege for everyone at Atlantic
Records over the past 35 years. Their contribution to the world of contemporary
music and to the legacy of Atlantic is immeasurable. And now at last to
be able to release these brilliant and legendary recordings of LED ZEPPELIN
in their true element on stage is a truly historic moment."
