Media type: DVD

Earl's Court 1975 were five concerts performed by Led Zeppelin at Earls Court Arena, London, in May 1975.

The concerts were initially booked for three nights on May 23, 24 and 25, but due to unprecedented public demand, two further dates were added for May 17 and 18, making total ticket sales 85,000.

These concerts took place less than two months following the conclusion of Led Zeppelin's 1975 American Tour. The whole of the band's stage and light show was airlifted from America for the concerts. A huge Ediphor screen which showed the action as it was being filmed was also erected above the stage, which is thought to be one of the first occasions when such a device was used for a rock show in England. It was said that an entire city could be lit by the energy spent in a single concert. Three days of rehearsals took place in order to fix every possible detail or PA problem.

Footage from the concerts remained in the vaults for years, until parts of it were released in 2003 for the Led Zeppelin DVD.

The Earl's Court concerts are considered by some critics to be amongst the best ever performed by the band, and the shows received generally excellent reviews from the music press. All of the shows exceeded three hours in length, with the final May 25 concert clocking in at three hours, 43 minutes and 50 seconds.
