The Oct. 26 DVD release of Jimmy Page and Robert Plant’s “No Quarter: Unledded” will be preceded the day before by screenings in 35 Regal Entertainment Group cinemas. A similar promotion with Loews Theatres heralded the 2003 release of the “Led Zeppelin” DVD, which has sold 683,000 units in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
“Unledded,” which premiered in 1994 on MTV, features a mix of acoustic and electric tracks — including the classics “Kashmir,” “Gallows Pole” and “When the Levee Breaks” — along with 17 tracks filmed in such locations as Morocco and Wales and studio segments filmed at the London Weekend Television Studios.
Coming 10 years after the film was originally released on VHS and 24 years after the dissolution of Led Zeppelin, the DVD includes an extra track, “Black Dog,” which was filmed at the American Music Awards; the bonus video “Most High”; a 13-minute interview with Plant and Page; and a montage of footage from Morocco.
Also due the same day is a re-release of the 1994 “Unledded” album that features two bonus tracks: “The Rain Song” and “Wah Wah.” The track “Yallah” from the original album also is included but is listed as “The Truth Explodes.”
