aen27 Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 I loved this. I loved Jimmy's story about the Belgium girl and admitting he was 'an impulsive fellow.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WLL4LZ Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 So good to hear what it was like in their own words. There's been so much sensationalist rubbish written about them over the years & some journalists just trying too hard hype everything beyond recognition. This was just real & charming - as both the 'boys' are. Had a chuckle at Jimmy's story re the Belgian girl too! Thanks for posting the article.

Charles J. White Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 I bet if Robert, Jimmy, Jones, and Jason were to spend some time in the mountains of Maine or the Highlands of Nova Scotia they would find that inspiration again because there would be no paparazzi and press all over them. They would be free to create and record without any expectations. I thought it was a great interview Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperDave Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I really enjoyed that as well. One of the better ones with members of the band. Just great insight into the recording of Zep III. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I agree, great article - this is where they really secured their future as a band and for the Page/Plant collaboration writing process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
