Subtle differences really. In fact I would swear this is actually the Presence rendition shorn of a few of Page's myriad overdubs. A breath-taking journey all the same.
I believe as @ian38018 says it is a rough mix of final album version without to overdubs. There are some good live versions of this. There's a Knebworth film with is quite something.
@gloveofbones I am bit suspicious about those Knebworth films. I was at the second weekend, and my recollection is that Achilles' Last Stand was pretty weak - Page's single guitar struggling to create any sort of oomph.

I love Presence. It may be one of my all time favourite albums.
