Wolfman Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5M4txE231I&feature=related Go to around to 5:02. Is that a real photo or did someone do some photoshop action? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dazedjeffy Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) It is, indeed, quite real. ca. June 1979. Photo by Kate Simon. Edited December 15, 2010 by dazedjeffy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magic Fills the Air Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 No that's a genuine picture I believe. I think I've seen that one somewhere before. Jimmy's wearing white shorts, rather than boxers. I guess he must have been pretty hot on stage that night! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reswati Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 That was actually a rehearsal, not during a concert. The picture was taken in Bray Studios prior to the Knebworth Festival, according to the book "On tour with Led Zeppelin" by Howard Mylett (page 136/137) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
3DayBender Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Has anyone actually seen any of the footage that was shot during those rehearsals? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hecube Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I wonder if this pic made it in his book... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jabe Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 It was a Chippendale audition. Jimmy, was exploring potantial options... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Led Hed Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Looks like someone unwrapped their presents early... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Knebby Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 (edited) That was my avatar for two years on the old forum. Bray studios I believe. And they aren't boxers (underwear), they're shorts. (Ooops sorry MFTA you beat me to that! ) xx Edited December 17, 2010 by Knebby Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reswati Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 (edited) I actually always wondered about the sleeve of this bootleg how warm it was during this photoshoot (most likely photoshopped but anyway, we now finally see how a Led Zeppelin looks like) http://www.discogs.com/Led-Zeppelin-Roberts-Last-Stand/release/2053485 You may supersize the image if you please. (Since frontal nudity is forbidden here, just the link, and not the picture........if it's offensive anyway, feel free to delete this post Sam) Edited December 17, 2010 by reswati Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stargroves Tangie Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 I wonder if this pic made it in his book... Actually I think it did- if you watch Rick Barrett's YouTube video of him unwrapping the book, he flips through a few pages & there's one that sure looks like that pic.(at 5:41).

The same Bray Studios where Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing starred in all those Hammer horror movies of the 1950s and 1960s?
