  1. Hi Steve! I wouldn't mind hearing this!!! If you can send a link, please? This was one of the better bootlegs, at least better shows.
  2. Got this last week. Maybe nothing new, but interesting nevertheless 😗
  3. Dark stage setting once again must have fitted well with the atmosphere of Led Zep!!! 🤫
  4. Well, since all the greatest music has been done by now and all the best bands more or less gone, photographers can dig into their archives and sell off on memories. And that's not a criticism. Ross Halfin released a Randy Rhoads-photo book with a lot of unseen photos.
  5. Does any of them smoke anymore? At this point in their lives, smoking would have caused slme serious health problems 🤔 Actually, I wonder if Keith Richards still smokes... 🙄
  6. Does this guitar-smashing incident bear resemblance to the scene in "Blow Up" or what?! Beck smashed a guitar there too 😆
  7. I'm in a similar situation: I now have a storage full of stuff; magazines, cds and books. I have saved my LPs and some of the cds and dvds, but I guess eventually rest of the stuff has to go. It's a shame that perfectly good stuff goes to bin. Well, what can you do. We cannot keep all the stuff forever and there's no point keeping it.
  8. Thank God for newspapers!!! 🙂 I wish I've kept more of my magazines and clippings...
  9. JPJ looked quite stylish in these 1977 photos 😄 Still not sure about Jimmy's trousers... 🤣
  10. Very nice photos!!! Especially the Hawaii ones 😃
  11. The whole first album already set the tone of Bonzo's drumming for me. Led Zeppelin's debut is near perfect for any debut anyway!!! And after that it only got better!!!😆

    Fotex.de

    German site Fotex.de has some nice photos from Led Zeppelin´s 1980 tour: https://fotex.wg.picturemaxx.com/?96240931679735518802 Or just search with "Led Zeppelin"...
  13. I have to agree on this: I've always liked the original Allman Brothers because of Duane and Berry!!! But I have to say I regard Dickey Betts highly, he has surpassed Duane in musicality and songwriting-wise he was also very prolific. But that original band just seemed to have a great chemistry.
  14. John Lennon may have liked Zeppelin indeed. Led Zeppelin ruled over many heavy rock bands hands down; say Mountain for example, who were quite heavy for that time. I never understood comparison between Led Zeppelin and KISS. Sure KISS was huge in the late 1970s, but Zeppelin were vastly superior music-wise and in global popularity, I think...
  15. Maybe worth if checking out?I think I may have Mick Bonham's book about Bonzo somewhere.
  16. These come from the spanish magazine (early 80s, maybe 1982, I think):
  17. Two of the last shows by Led Zeppelin that I´ve been into: Bath 1970 (no surprise here!!!) and Belfast 1971. Just to hear the audience not so much reacting to songs from the fourth album. For my ears, there´s a great feeling in many of the 1971 shows. Not saying it wasn´t present on any other years, but there´s something.
  18. Led Zeppelin were (or should we say was?) a photogenetic band 😛 I think Led fared pretty well in most of the groupshots. Many bands tend to look grumpy (which they may be) or just plain non-interested...
