Album Description

Jimmy Page and Robert Plant changed the face of rock 'n' roll as cofounders of Led Zeppelin. The massively influential group disbanded in 1980 following drummer John Bonham's death, and Page & Plant pursued solo careers before reuniting in 1994 for MTV's hugely popular Unplugged. That historic session-which led to an international nad new studio album-became New Quarter. Page's guitar virtuosity and Plant's vocal mastery are potent as ever as they deliver thse inspired, reinvented, takes on choice picks from the Led Zeppelin songbook.

2 out of 5 stars Terrible song selection .......2007-07-09

In addition to the terrible song selection, they manage to ruin the 14 minute version of Kashmir. This CD is nothing more than a showcase for Plant's grandstanding which doesn't hold up without the full Zeppelin sound. Page's playing is so subdued that the guitar could be that of any decent session guitarist.

5 out of 5 stars Many of the titles on this CD was old Led Zepplin songs, but the sound is much better on this CD........2007-06-27

This CD is almost a remaster of some of Led Zepplins songs and were done very well, especially Kashir and The Battle of Evermore.

5 out of 5 stars Just As I Remembered It.......2007-06-09

If you loved this CD when it first came out, who can remember the year anymore, must have been in the early 90s, you'll love it again now that you finally remembered the name of it. I couldn't locate it in any of my local record stores or Best Buy, so I was happy to find it on Amazon. Brought back memories of seeing Page/Plant in concert. I like this version of Gallows Pole much better than the one on the box set, which I also purchased.

5 out of 5 stars Page & Plant - Classics!.......2007-03-13

I recently purchased 'Unledded' as well as the London Symphonic Orchestra's 'Kashmir' - no collection would be complete with out these Classics!

5 out of 5 stars Journey on the Orient Express.......2007-02-14

Led Zeppelin always loved to experiment with Oriental motifs and now here is Page and Plant with an Egyptian Ensemble, Musicians in Marrakech and the London Metropolitan Orchestra. While the music may seem over-orchestrated at times, it is rich in musical themes, foreign and familiar, building on their classic numbers to a stunning climax on Kashmir. Najima Akhtar hits the high notes Robert Plant no longer can, lending a more lilting feel to The Battle of Evermore, but Plant doesn't disappoint, nor for that matter does Page on this wonderful album. My only question is why John Paul Jones wasn't invited in on this set?

5 out of 5 stars THE TRIUMPHANT RETURN OF JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT........2007-02-07

My fellow readers and reviewers, I will be writing a review on the legendary historic album entitled "NO QUARTER" UNLEDDED by one of Rock's most beloved artists and one of England's most favorite sons. I give you two of the fearsome foursome that are formally of the legendary band, LED ZEPPELIN, MR. JIMMY PAGE and MR. ROBERT PLANT. "NO QUARTER" UNLEDDED was originally released in 1994 on Compact Disc on the Atlantic Records label in association with a Time Warner Company. There are two different versions of this legendary album but I will only be reviewing the original 1994 version. As always, if I hear any new additional information concerning this legendary album or the artists, I will edit this review immediately so that you the consumer will get the best informative and most accurate review possible.

LED ZEPPELIN will forever remain in our hearts as the ultimate Rock n' Roll royalty band to be compared with such great legendary bands as THE BEATLES, THE ROLLING STONES, THE KINKS, THE WHO, PINK FLOYD, AEROSMITH, JIMI HENDRIX, QUEEN and BLACK SABBATH. For myself, it was extremely painful to review the "IN THROUGH THE OUT DOOR" album and tell it like it was. The LED ZEPPELIN saga was so tragic in the end that it was a horrible way to end the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. Please note that the 1994 historic reunion of JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT is a celebration of LED ZEPPELIN'S music and not a LED ZEPPELIN reunion. When I mentioned at the end of my review of "IN THROUGH THE OUT DOOR" that the LED ZEPPELIN legend does not end here, if anything it is only the beginning, I was not kidding. JIMMY PAGE'S & ROBERT PLANT'S UNLEDDED "NO QUARTER" is the result of the continuing adventures and tales in the life of the LED ZEPPELIN legend and saga. If there were ever two major forces of LED ZEPPELIN that did not like the way their band ended in 1980 and were destined to reunite with the intentions of wanting to set the record straight once and for all, it would have to be JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT. When JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT recruited Charlie Jones on bass and Michael Lee on drums, a new band would be born in the image offspring of the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. Only this time, their music would have and contain a more Indian type style sound than before. In my opinion, "NO QUARTER" UNLEDDED is a true testament and a fine tribute to a great band that was indeed, ahead of their time.

I will list and briefly review certain song tracks in their original exact running order as follows: (1.) "Nobody's Fault But Mine," (This is a completely different acoustic rendition of the original 1976 LED ZEPPELIN classic Rocker. This is really a well recorded song. This acoustic number can make sounds echo off the beautiful sounds of the waters flowing down the streamy hills of the mountain side. Jimmy plays his acoustic guitar like raindrops falling on the petals of rose leaves floating above the water. Robert can make his husky lead vocals ricochet off of Jimmy's acoustic guitar and blow with the wind through the high grasses of the land.) (2.) "Thank You," (This is another well recorded Rocker that pays a wonderful tribute to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. Jimmy plays this Rocker just like he did back in 1969. Jimmy does not play guitar like he once did but he is extremely effective in this Rocker. Robert does not sing the high notes like he once did either but he is extremely effective in this Rocker as well. Drummer Michael Lee plays a blistering drum kit similar to that of one John Henry Bonham. His drumming is what makes this Rocker sound the way this Rocker once sounded like in the past. Believe it or not, Michael actually makes Jimmy and Robert sound even better than anticipated.) (3.) "No Quarter," (This is another blistering acoustic rendition of the 1973 LED ZEPPELIN classic slow Rocker. Jimmy plays a mean twelve-string acoustic in the mountain hillsides that have the beautiful sound of the waters flowing down stream. Robert not only makes his blistering husky powerful lead vocals ricochet off of Jimmy's twelve-string acoustic guitar, but off of the hills and mountains where the sounds lie and vibrate with the flowing waters. This is one hell of a song.) (4.) "Friends," (This is another wonderful tribute to LED ZEPPELIN. This song is a well recorded rendition of the 1970 LED ZEPPELIN classic song. Jimmy plays his twelve-string acoustic like no one has ever played a twelve-string acoustic. Jimmy NEVER lets off during this number. Robert sings this song perfectly especially since this number is played in the right key that would suit his new mature husky vocal ranges.) (7.) "Since I've been Loving You," (This is another wonderful tribute to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. During this slow Blues Rocker, Jimmy plays his Gibson Les Paul electric guitar like the way he used to in the past. However, it is evident that Jimmy does have some struggles in playing his guitar solo. There are stories circulating that Jimmy would now be required in receiving Cortisone injections before a gig. I do not know for fact if this is true or not. If anyone knows, please comment this review and let me know. Robert sings this slow Blues Rocker like the Robert Plant of the past. Robert really lets loose during this number. This song would also be played in a different key to suit Robert's new mature husky vocal ranges.) (8.) "The Battle Of Evermore," (This is another beautifully well recorded acoustic number that requires the sounds and mixtures of the mandolin and the Indian sound. Najma Akhtar lends her beautiful falsetto lead vocals along with Robert's well adjusted mature husky lead vocals. Jimmy plays a mean twelve-string acoustic during this number.) (9.) "Wonderful One," (This is a new beautiful acoustic number that would be added to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN legend. This song is dedicated to Robert's late son Karac Plant who died of a virus during the 1977 World Tour. Robert sings this song with such raw power, skilled grace and emotion that you can't help but feel this song along with him. Jimmy backs up Robert with a beautifully superb twelve-string acoustic guitar performance.) (10.) "That's The Way," (This is another wonderful tribute to LED ZEPPELIN. This is an acoustic rendition of the 1970 LED ZEPPELIN classic acoustic original song. Jimmy plays his twelve-string acoustic guitar during this number exactly like the way he performed it back in the 1970's. Robert also sings this number with the same energy and emotion like he sang it in the 1970's. However, this song is played in a different key to suit Robert's new husky mature vocal ranges.) (11.) "Gallows Pole," (This is another great tribute to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. This is a blistering acoustic Rocker rendition of the 1970 LED ZEPPELIN original classic acoustic Rocker. Jimmy plays his twelve-string acoustic guitar with such skill and ease, that he actually makes it look easy despite being difficult. Robert sings this slow Rocker like the way he used to in the past. Again, this slow acoustic Rocker develops more extreme power and energy with the perfect timing and powerhouse drumming of Michael Lee. If you close your eyes, you can almost feel the spirit of John Henry Bonham flowing through Michael Lee's drumming.) (12.) "Four Sticks" (This is another wonderful tribute to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. This is a great Rocker rendition of the original classic 1971 LED ZEPPELIN Rocker. This Rocker is the real Rock stuff that is made of pure legend. Legend has it that John Bonham played this Rocker with four extra heavy drum sticks. (Two in each hand) Jimmy plays his twelve-string acoustic guitar like it will be his last time. Robert sings this acoustic Rocker in a different key to suit his new mature husky vocal ranges. Michael plays the role of Bonham perfectly in playing his drum kit with four sticks.) and (13.) "Kashmir." (This is the most wonderfully perfect tribute that anyone can ever pay to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. This is a beautiful Rockin' rendition version of the original classic 1975 LED ZEPPELIN song. Jimmy plays a new Gibson Les Paul for this Rocker. Jimmy does not let up or disappoint anyone during the playing of this Rocker. In my opinion, this is the best "Kashmir" ever recorded or performed live. Jimmy plays a mean six-string for this rocker like there is no tomorrow. Robert sings this song with such power and emotion that he gives a whole new feeling for this new Rocker. Again, Michael Lee adds more power and energy to this new Rocker with his perfect timing and his blistering powerhouse drumming. Lee would give this new Rocker new life that would have made Bonham proud. The violin solo is nothing short of breathtaking. The ending of "Kashmir" would add new pages in the LED ZEPPELIN saga and legend. If you close your eyes, you can almost feel the presence and spirit of LED ZEPPELIN performing one more time. You have to hear it to believe it.) I would like to add a honorable mention to this album that is only included in the new 2004 version. The song is "The Rain Song." (This is another wonderful tribute to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. This new acoustic number is a rendition of the 1973 LED ZEPPELIN classic acoustic song. This song sounds so beautiful thanks to Jimmy's beautiful playing of his twelve-string acoustic guitar. The background orchestra compliments Jimmy's acoustic guitar playing wonderfully and perfectly. Robert sings this number perfectly. Michael Lee backs up both Jimmy and Robert with his perfect timing and drumming.) Of the songs I did not list or review, believe me when I tell you that these songs are well performed as well. Overall, this is a wonderful tribute and true testament of what could have been had Bonham lived and LED ZEPPELIN were still together playing great Rock n' Roll music.

I would like to encourage everyone to purchase this legendary album. You are not just purchasing any album, but a priceless piece of Rock n' Roll history. I feel that not just every LED ZEPPELIN fan, but everyone in general should own this legendary album as part of their own valuable personal music collection. This legendary album will definitely stand the test of time and will always be around to be enjoyed, appreciated and cherished for many years to come, NOW AND FOREVER.

In closing, with this legendary album UNLEDDED "NO QUARTER," there are now new pages and chapter's of the LED ZEPPELIN saga and legend. At last, JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT have finally made peace with themselves concerning a great foursome band named LED ZEPPELIN. Now you can say that the LED ZEPPELIN saga and legend ended on a better note and not the way the band ended in 1980. With that in mind, in reality, the LED ZEPPELIN legend is well secure and will never be forgotten. JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT have accomplished and achieved so much in Rock n' Roll history that they both do not have anything left to prove. And as the saying goes, "AND THE REST IS ROCK N ROLL HISTORY," am I wrong? So here's to you Robert and Jimmy. I hope this review did you justice. Keep Persevering. Keep The Faith. Keep On Rockin'. Thanks for reading my review and I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it for your reading pleasure. I also hope that you will read all of my other reviews in the near future when time permits. LED ZEPPELIN FOREVER. R.I.P. John Henry Bonham. R.I.P. LED ZEPPELIN. Long Live Rock n' Roll. Rock out always and take it easy. Forever in Rock, John L.

5 out of 5 stars in a new light .......2005-11-22

robert plant and jimmy page unledded no quarter cd with a great backing band featuring african instruments and a eastern favour to many led zeppelin classics this album is needed in any zeppelin fans collection just for the version of kashmir classic
robert's voice may sound a bit croaky he still rocks and page hasn't lost his talent both playing with their full alblities
i love this cd a new light to led zeppelin songs and you thought robert plant and jimmy page would never play together again
well they did and it was superb

5 out of 5 stars Means vocal is not a quarter?.......2005-10-11

At the beginning I was worried, what if Page's guitar or Plant's voice dissapoints me.
However it was not necessary. Although the first number "Nobody's Fault But Mine" slightly confuses me, but the sound was getting better and better
Most of numbers originally from Zeppelin are all my favorites, Five of them are from the 3rd album, I am very glad that as a 3rd album lover.
"Gallows Pole" and "Four Sticks" were even better than the original. I didn't feel it was nice the string section in "Since I've Been Loving You".

Anyway overall, this album has good balance of the sound. Zeppelin was a great band but also I was feeling the balance of the sound was unusual as a Rock Band. Usually the vocalist is a leading part in the rock band, but in Zeppelin each member is so great that Plant's vocal sounded like just one of them. Sometimes as if a back chorus. I always wondered it should be called great features or weakness of them.
But here, Plant acts as a leading roll and Page's guitar supports him.

So "No Quarter" means the vocalist is not a quarter here?

4 out of 5 stars A chance to see Plant and Page together again .......2004-10-29

After Live Aid, the Atlantic Records birthday concert, and some other live brief appearances, I was excited to see this effort during the "unplugged" era....I was hoping Plant and Page would tour and tour they did. For fans who were not old enough to see Led Zep in concert, this had to be the closest I would ever get. Although I saw the Firm and solo shows by Plant, and only recently did Plant start to go back to Led Zep tunes, nothing compared to the Plant/Page tour that followed the release of this cd. Fine selection of songs fit real well with all of the backing musicians.

4 out of 5 stars Page and Plant together again!.......2004-09-18

In 1994 Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and Robert Plant got together again.Since Zeppelin had broken up in 1980 after John Bonham passed away, fans were ready for some form of Zeppelin, although they had played a few shows together in the 80's,for example Live Aid in 1985 with Phil Collins playing the drums. While not as good as it would be to have the three surviving members of Led Zeppelin reunite No Quarter should satisfy many fans who are wanting Zeppelin again.Unledded contains 13 songs performed live at various shows in the U.K. While the set doesn't contain that many of the songs that pop into your head when you think of Led Zeppelin Unledded is a very good album. All of the songs sound good they way they are performed here.If you love Zeppelin buy this CD.

Lee would give this new Rocker new life that would have made Bonham proud. The violin solo is nothing short of breathtaking. The ending of "Kashmir" would add new pages in the LED ZEPPELIN saga and legend. If you close your eyes, you can almost feel the presence and spirit of LED ZEPPELIN performing one more time. You have to hear it to believe it.) I would like to add a honorable mention to this album that is only included in the new 2004 version. The song is "The Rain Song." (This is another wonderful tribute to the MIGHTY LED ZEPPELIN. This new acoustic number is a rendition of the 1973 LED ZEPPELIN classic acoustic song. This song sounds so beautiful thanks to Jimmy's beautiful playing of his twelve-string acoustic guitar. The background orchestra compliments Jimmy's acoustic guitar playing wonderfully and perfectly. Robert sings this number perfectly. Michael Lee backs up both Jimmy and Robert with his perfect timing and drumming.) Of the songs I did not list or review, believe me when I tell you that these songs are well performed as well. Overall, this is a wonderful tribute and true testament of what could have been had Bonham lived and LED ZEPPELIN were still together playing great Rock n' Roll music.

I would like to encourage everyone to purchase this legendary album. You are not just purchasing any album, but a priceless piece of Rock n' Roll history. I feel that not just every LED ZEPPELIN fan, but everyone in general should own this legendary album as part of their own valuable personal music collection. This legendary album will definitely stand the test of time and will always be around to be enjoyed, appreciated and cherished for many years to come, NOW AND FOREVER.

In closing, with this legendary album UNLEDDED "NO QUARTER," there are now new pages and chapter's of the LED ZEPPELIN saga and legend. At last, JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT have finally made peace with themselves concerning a great foursome band named LED ZEPPELIN. Now you can say that the LED ZEPPELIN saga and legend ended on a better note and not the way the band ended in 1980. With that in mind, in reality, the LED ZEPPELIN legend is well secure and will never be forgotten. JIMMY PAGE & ROBERT PLANT have accomplished and achieved so much in Rock n' Roll history that they both do not have anything left to prove. And as the saying goes, "AND THE REST IS ROCK N ROLL HISTORY," am I wrong? So here's to you Robert and Jimmy. I hope this review did you justice. Keep Persevering. Keep The Faith. Keep On Rockin'. Thanks for reading my review and I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it for your reading pleasure. I also hope that you will read all of my other reviews in the near future when time permits. LED ZEPPELIN FOREVER. R.I.P. John Henry Bonham. R.I.P. LED ZEPPELIN. Long Live Rock n' Roll. Rock out always and take it easy. Forever in Rock, John L.

5 out of 5 stars in a new light .......2005-11-22

robert plant and jimmy page unledded no quarter cd with a great backing band featuring african instruments and a eastern favour to many led zeppelin classics this album is needed in any zeppelin fans collection just for the version of kashmir classic
robert's voice may sound a bit croaky he still rocks and page hasn't lost his talent both playing with their full alblities
i love this cd a new light to led zeppelin songs and you thought robert plant and jimmy page would never play together again
well they did and it was superb

5 out of 5 stars Means vocal is not a quarter?.......2005-10-11

At the beginning I was worried, what if Page's guitar or Plant's voice dissapoints me.
However it was not necessary. Although the first number "Nobody's Fault But Mine" slightly confuses me, but the sound was getting better and better
Most of numbers originally from Zeppelin are all my favorites, Five of them are from the 3rd album, I am very glad that as a 3rd album lover.
"Gallows Pole" and "Four Sticks" were even better than the original. I didn't feel it was nice the string section in "Since I've Been Loving You".

Anyway overall, this album has good balance of the sound. Zeppelin was a great band but also I was feeling the balance of the sound was unusual as a Rock Band. Usually the vocalist is a leading part in the rock band, but in Zeppelin each member is so great that Plant's vocal sounded like just one of them. Sometimes as if a back chorus. I always wondered it should be called great features or weakness of them.
But here, Plant acts as a leading roll and Page's guitar supports him.

So "No Quarter" means the vocalist is not a quarter here?

4 out of 5 stars A chance to see Plant and Page together again .......2004-10-29

After Live Aid, the Atlantic Records birthday concert, and some other live brief appearances, I was excited to see this effort during the "unplugged" era....I was hoping Plant and Page would tour and tour they did. For fans who were not old enough to see Led Zep in concert, this had to be the closest I would ever get. Although I saw the Firm and solo shows by Plant, and only recently did Plant start to go back to Led Zep tunes, nothing compared to the Plant/Page tour that followed the release of this cd. Fine selection of songs fit real well with all of the backing musicians.

4 out of 5 stars Page and Plant together again!.......2004-09-18

In 1994 Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page and Robert Plant got together again.Since Zeppelin had broken up in 1980 after John Bonham passed away, fans were ready for some form of Zeppelin, although they had played a few shows together in the 80's,for example Live Aid in 1985 with Phil Collins playing the drums. While not as good as it would be to have the three surviving members of Led Zeppelin reunite No Quarter should satisfy many fans who are wanting Zeppelin again.Unledded contains 13 songs performed live at various shows in the U.K. While the set doesn't contain that many of the songs that pop into your head when you think of Led Zeppelin Unledded is a very good album. All of the songs sound good they way they are performed here.If you love Zeppelin buy this CD.

      5 out of 5 stars Led Zeppelin songs blended with Eastern rhythms and sounds.......2004-04-07

      Calling this album by the video title of "Unleded," as a takeoff on "Unplugged," sorely misses the point of why "No Quarter" is not just Jimmy Page and Robert Plant doing acoustic versions of Led Zeppelin songs. The primary attraction of this album is the infusion of Eastern rhythms and sounds into their old songs. The Egyptian Ensemble's percussion section uses instruments you just do not hear on rock 'n' roll albums: Dobolla, Duf, Bendir, Reque, Merwas, Nay and Finger Cymbals (for good measure the back up band includes a Bodhran and Hurdy Gurdy).

      As soon as you hearing the opening of "Nobody's Fault But Mine" you know that there is an exotic twist to these songs this time around. "No Quarter," "Friends," "The Battle for Evermore," "Gallows Pole" and "Four Sticks" all benefit from this fresh approach. Then, just to make things really interesting, we get the string section of the London Metropolitan Orchestra to come in on the awesome version of "Kashmir" that ends the album. Consequently, the songs were we do not really get the full flavor of this exotic twist, such as "Thank You," That's the Way" and "Since I've Been Loving You," seem a bit out of place.

      It would be hard to argue that Plant's voice is everything it once was, but ultimately he is just another instrument on this mix. I have always appreciated the mixing of musical styles, whether it is Paul Simon and Peter Gabriel using South African influences or Loreena McKennitt blending Celtic and Eastern music together, so I certainly consider "No Quarter" to be in that successful vein. The fact that these are Led Zeppelin songs just makes this album that much better.

      5 out of 5 stars Eastern flavours and brilliant lyrics.......2005-09-26

      As usual, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant have turned out a winner. This album has nothing superflous. Every track is fantastic, from the addictive 'Nobody's Fault But Mine' to sad and beautiful 'That's the Way'. There are the clear eastern influences found in much Led Zepplin, and, and as always the lyrics are poetry in themselves - take:
      "And yesterday I saw you standing by the river,
      And weren't those tears that filled your eyes,
      And all the fish that lay in dirty water dying,
      Had they got you hypnotized?

      And yesterday I saw you kissing tiny flowers,
      But all that lives is born to die.
      And so I say to you that nothing really matters,
      And all you do is stand and cry.

      I don't know what to say about it,
      When all you ears have turned away,
      But now's the time to look and look again at what you see,
      Is that the way it ought to stay?"

      It can be listened to over and over again - No song becomes tired or repetitive despite many many hearings. It's a valuable addition to any collection of rock music.
