I've just been wondering, how everyone got into listening to the greatest band in the world and what was the first song you heard??
My story is, I was 14 and at my uncles and he was helping me out with a school project, he said to me "Stick that disc there in and put track 4 on" so being the good lad that i was, i did just that... about 5 minutes later i said to him "Is this that same song?" and there it was I was hooked from there on... I know it's their most popular tune, but to a 14yr old back in 1988 when everyone else was tripping to the stone roses and inspiral carpets, Track 4 on Led Zep IV got me... Stairway of course!!!!
My brother had borrowed zep 4 off a mate.I came home just as black dog was ending.Then i heard the drum intro to rock and roll and to borrow your quote i was hooked.That as in 1971,i was 11.Two years later in december 72 i saw them live at the hardrock,stretford Manchester.I was thrilled when they opened with that now famous drum intro.3 years after that i saw them at earls court,having queued over night in manchester for my ticket.And they opened with rock and roll again.My kids dont understand how i can still listen to them after over 35 years,they wonder why i dont get bored.I may try to explain it to them one day.
