Maybe you or someone you know can answer this off topic question regarding the video provided about the Zeppelin fan 18 seconds in holding the Led Zeppelin banner. This person was also in the official DVD. Has this fan ever come forward and identified them self? To me it's iconic and synonymous with Led Zeppelin fans. I'm not aware of that fan ever being identified. Her photo was also featured in NME back then: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wants $60 for postage (US). . More than the price of the book. .thats insanity. . I'm really looking forward to this book. I know Mike Tremaglio, Dave's co-author, personally. Perhaps unsurprisingly, we met over a box of Zep bootlegs at a record convention about 20 years ago. At the time I thought I knew a lot about the band, but Mike's level of knowledge was encyclopedic, and it's grown by leaps and bounds since then with the endless research he's done into their career. I ordered my copy a couple of days ago through a third party seller on Amazon. It was around $45 total, including shipping within the US. I'm still waiting for it to arrive. The book is a hardcover and has around 550 pages, so I'm not surprised it is expensive to ship it from England to the States, but you should be able to get a copy for much less from the US version of Amazon. For those who are interested, here is a link to Dave's site with some more info about the book: http://www.tightbutloose.co.uk/tbl-news/evenings-with-led-zeppelin-feedback-lz-news-tbl-archive-led-zeppelin-iii-and-lyceum-1969-coda-london-gig-national-album-day-danny-baker-dl-diary-blog-update/ Edited October 11, 2018 by SteveZ98 Added link.

Not bad at all for international shipping. Assuming it arrives in one piece. I'm glad Dave is putting something noteworthy out for the anniversary.

Amazon didn't use any bubble wrap so it probably jostled around a lot in transit. Unfortunately , the one previously unseen thing I had most hoped to see, which is clear photos of Bonzo's drums form 68, is nothing revelatory. Loads of great pics though , very nicely printed on heavy stock paper. Definitely worth the $, IMO. Mine has the reel art press logo upside down lol. Also missing some gold like the other guy's. Did you order through Amazon or RAP directly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bozoso73 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I got it through Amazon today and cant see why some here would say they are disappointed. The chapter with TOE 80 is like 5 pages and of course R. Halfin gets his fill. Im not a big fan of shots laying across seperate pages but overall this is a great book. I wish it came with a slip cover to keep it pristene. It looks great next to my Jimmy Page by Jimmy Page. 2 hours ago, SteveZ98 said: It was around $45 total, including shipping within the US Thanks Steve found a copy. Im a big fan of DL and he is always gracious with my DMs and answers promptly. I would be glad to give him my $ I just have a hard time paying more for post than the actual product. I buy from all over and never get raked like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgeholder Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 Got my book yesterday. I think it's fantastic. Especially for the price, it's huge! Tons of shots I haven't seen before. There was a lot of effort put into this, not a lot of overly familiar shots (some, sure, but most are different) and the stories from the band members are great. One thing I noticed - Montreux '72 - recording mics on the drums. I think we will be seeing this show (possibly with video) in the future. To all involved in making this book (I'm sure Sam was involved) hats off, great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Several of the photos are confusingly labeled like that on different pages, it's not always logical.
