SteveAJones Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) It's my pleasure to announce on this forum the launch of a new website that chronicles Led Zeppelin's global press coverage over the past five decades. An astounding 1,400+ magazine covers are provided in chronological format. Visitors are encouraged to submit additions to the site owner for inclusion. The world's largest collection of Led Zeppelin magazines: www.rogerberlin.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Neue Webseite www.rogerberlin.de von Rogerberlin » Sa 25. Dez 2010, 17:34 So meine lieben Mitglieder - jetzt ist es bald so weit. Eine neue Webseite ist fertig und erscheint in Kürze. Hier nun in kurzen Stichworten die Entstehung dieser Seite. Roger produziert Bücher mit der Auflistung aller Magazine die er hat. Kaum ist ein Buch beim Buchbinder fertig liegen schon wieder 20 neue Hefte im Regal. Gerd sagt: Roger setz sie doch ins Netz dann haben alle was davon. Roger sagt: Ja toll Gerd aber ich kann so etwas nicht. Gerd sagt: Kein Problem schick mir doch mal eine Idee, wie in etwa Du Dir das vorstellst. Roger schickte und Gerd überlegte und überlegte und er überlegte lange, sehr lange. Und dann, es ist gar nicht so lang her, kam der Anruf. Und dann ging es los. Schneller als mir Recht war. Aber jetzt ist sie fertig und bald hier für alle zu erreichen. Das erscheinen dieser Webseite ist zu 95% Gerd zu verdanken denn der Inhaber dieser Seite kann so etwas noch nicht. Meinen persönlichen Dank möchte ich hiermit öffentlich gegenüber Gerd aussprechen. Ohne seine fleißige Arbeit würde diese Seite nicht exestieren. Manchmal müssen zu erst die Fetzen fliegen bevor man einen gemeinsamen Konsens findet. Aber aus und vorbei. Wir wollen hier das FOZ voran treiben und interessanter machen. Wer stehen bleibt der rostet. Wir wollen aber nicht rosten. Wir wollen glänzen und ich hoffe, dass wir jetzt wieder etwas besonderes zu bieten haben. Nochmals vielen Dank für Deine Hilfe Gerd. Und wenn Du mal meine Hilfe brauchst dann erinnere mich bitte an diesen Tag. Wir hoffen das uns viele Kritiken hier und auf der Homepage der Website erreichen.

kenog Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 Very cool site ! Ally, are you Scottish/of Scottish origin, because I notice you are using a photo of a great Scottish hero - Oor Wullie.

Steve A Jones, thanks for giving us the heads up on this. quote Aye lad, born but not bred in the homeland. Before the modern age, my granny used to send the Sunday Post so I could keep up with the fitba and every year I received the Oor Wullie annual and a 5 pound note. Love my black puddin' too Quote
ledzepfvr Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks Steve for bringing that to our attention, and congratulations to Roger for launching that site. I am sure he will have a lot of traffic from the die hard Zep fans researching the history of our boys. Quote
Matjaz1 Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Great collection! But is there actually a possibility of reading the content of this magazines on the site?? Quote
SuperDave Posted December 29, 2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks for this Steve. The scope of this collection is mind blowing to say the least. Great work Roger! Quote
BUCK'EYE' DOC Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 Photos of the collection via private email: WOW! Great collection! Quote
SteveAJones Posted December 30, 2010 Author Posted December 30, 2010 Great collection! But is there actually a possibility of reading the content of this magazines on the site?? I understand Roger is willing to expand the scope of the site to include magazine content. Scanning articles is very time consuming but I've already offered to contribute effort and content. I'm also encouraging others to contribute. I believe the site will present the articles eventually. Quote
BonzoLikeDrumer Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) Neet-O collection! Check the January 1970 UK Melody Maker, Jimmy looks wicked! I guess it's shadows from the lighting. Edited December 30, 2010 by BonzoLikeDrumer Quote
IanA Posted December 30, 2010 Posted December 30, 2010 What an amazing collection! It would be fantastic to see the articles gradually appearing on the site, but indeed a massive undertaking to do this!
