...No, just more photos..........

....MSG, you are deserving of every gracious comment. Should there be any further developments with any additional photos, I will stay in touch with you and the fans - Old Taj late 70's (The one Richard likes), Thanks MSG for sending this photo...

Thanks for your friendship Ally. MSG is indeed great friend. She was always there to provide great contacts, assistance whenever I was unsure of things.... Here is the article written by Sidarth Bhatia, journalist from Mumbai during this archival search, a great story he felt; Sidarth responded to my original inquiry of search of photos and he became interested in Led Zeppelin. He was a young freshman in college in '72 when Zep arrived in Bombay, Sidarth informs me that he wrote this article for the "young generation" in India who are not familiar with "those" times, they do know Led Zeppelin, but the visit of '72 was indeed magical... Time out Magazine - Various State Editions throughout India; http://www.timeoutbangalore.com/music/music_details.asp?code=154&source=4 MSG - Thank you again, you made this article very special, your willingness to assist the writer with great contacts truly acknowledge.......

Photo of Musician Madhu Das on Cover of JS - He was also photographed for further '74/'75 issues of JS, but the JS folded around these mid years, starting with publications from 60's on... http://www.bigdooker.com/milestones.html ...worth few cents back then, the scanned entire issue of JS is produced at approx. $900.00 U.S. to date; Madhu informed me about the lost JS Issues/photos of Zep that he owned before, and that his girlfriend Sophia, now wife (pictured on his Official Site with him) use to plaster Zep photos on her wall... - The Original Photos cannot be found. The Statesman confirms that a lot of their film has been destroyed over the years, unfortunately.

.....thanks SAJ, hope you enjoyed the photos; yes there is, I cannot think of everything at once to post, too many details at once... Yes, the Junior Statesman, in which these photos were published is said to be dated November 25, 1972. The Statesman from Kolkata forgot to attach the Junior Statesman Front Cover, P. Banerjee will send me the scan tomorrow. (It has some other sports related photo). I will post the scan. In those days, the photos for publishing were sent via regular mail, from Bombay to Calcutta. This is why the photos appear in Nov.'72 issue. ...as you know, there is no visit to Bombay in Mar'72 for the purposes of Bombay Sessions Recordings.
