fuzzman Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Hi. I was just wondering if some of you fine folks would like to answer a few questions relating to the band. I'm doing a graphic design project on the Zep and I've got to produce a multitude of items for a mock promotional campaign, so it's here that I'm going to start some market research. I'm sort of basing the project on the Mothership compilation, only with a redesigned advertising campaign. Thanks ever so much if you could help me out. It's only ten simple questions afterall. 1. How long have you been listening to Led Zeppelin? 2. What would you say is your favourite album of theirs? 3. Your favourite song(s)? 4. In terms of design, what would you say is their most powerful album sleeve? 5. What colours or colour schemes would you generally associate with the band? 6. During which period of their career would you say they were at their creative peak? 7. In general, what do you think would be the most effective means of introducing the band’s music to the younger generations? 8. Who or what made you start listening to them? 9. Apart from the obvious iconic image of the zeppelin, what do you think is the strongest form of imagery associated with the band? 10. Finally, in no more than five words, what do you love about Led Zeppelin? Thanks everybody, I massively appreciate this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leandar Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 1. How long have you been listening to Led Zeppelin? Since 1988. 2. What would you say is your favourite album of theirs? Physical Graffiti 3. Your favourite song(s)? Your Time Is Gonna Come Good Times Bad Times Thank You Immigrant Song Friends Out On The Tiles Tangerine That's The Way Stairway To Heaven Going To California The Song Remains The Same Rain Song Over The Hills And Far Away No Quarter Kashmir Bron-Y-Aur In The Light Down By The Seaside Ten Years Gone Boogie With Stu Tea For One Fool In The Rain Hot Dog I'm Gonna Crawl Baby, Come On Home Hey, Hey What Can I Do?

What colours or colour schemes would you generally associate with the band? Tye-Dye 6. During which period of their career would you say they were at their creative peak? Early to mid-70's. 7. In general, what do you think would be the most effective means of introducing the band's music to the younger generations? Get them to listen to it. 8. Who or what made you start listening to them? This is actually a weird story. I got into Zeppelin through the hysteria back in the 80's about backward masking. So I didn't know anything about Zeppelin except that they were supposed to be satanists and such and then during the weekly Sunday night dedication party on a local radio station, they played Stairway to Heaven and it was the first time I heard the song all the way through and I just happened to record it. I was hooked on Zeppelin from that point on. This summer/fall will mark 20 years of Zeppelin-mania for me. 9. Apart from the obvious iconic image of the zeppelin, what do you think is the strongest form of imagery associated with the band? The amazing wall of sound, which even comes out during the softer songs. 10. Finally, in no more than five words, what do you love about Led Zeppelin? Enduring, honest, uplifting music! Thanks everybody, I massively appreciate this. You're welcome. 8. Who or what made you start listening to them? "Backmasking" I'm glad I'm not the only one that got into Zeppelin this way. I don't feel so ridiculous now. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonzoEqualsGoodStuff Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 1. How long have you been listening to Led Zeppelin? I started sometime in 2006. I can't remember the exact date.

In terms of design, what would you say is their most powerful album sleeve? LZIII 5. What colours or colour schemes would you generally associate with the band? Black and white 6.

In general, what do you think would be the most effective means of introducing the band’s music to the younger generations? Well I guess technically I'm one of the "younger generation," and I think you should just put their music out there. If the recipient's taste in music isn't deplorable, they'll enjoy it. 8. Who or what made you start listening to them? A lot of the musicians I listen to count them as one of their personal favorites, so I figured they couldn't be half bad. Plus I was visiting home during a break from school and really bored. There were a lot of CDs around... 9. Apart from the obvious iconic image of the zeppelin, what do you think is the strongest form of imagery associated with the band? Robert Plant's pants 10. Finally, in no more than five words, what do you love about Led Zeppelin? They kicked music's ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you say is your favourite album of theirs? Led Zeppelin III 3. Your favourite song(s)? This is a tough one. It really depends on the day.

In terms of design, what would you say is their most powerful album sleeve? 1. Led Zeppelin III. 2. Untitled (IV). 3. Physical Graffiti. 5.

In general, what do you think would be the most effective means of introducing the band’s music to the younger generations? Sadly, it seems these days people latch on to songs that are used in commercials. If their music was used in an iPod commercial or were featured in "Guitar Hero", people would be all over it.

Anything connected to Jimmy Page - his images, symbols, dragons, bow aloft - to me he is the embodiment of Zeppelin. 10. Finally, in no more than five words, what do you love about Led Zeppelin?

MHD Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Hi. I was just wondering if some of you fine folks would like to answer a few questions relating to the band. I'm doing a graphic design project on the Zep and I've got to produce a multitude of items for a mock promotional campaign, so it's here that I'm going to start some market research. I'm sort of basing the project on the Mothership compilation, only with a redesigned advertising campaign. Thanks ever so much if you could help me out. It's only ten simple questions afterall. 1. How long have you been listening to Led Zeppelin? 37 years 2. What would you say is your favourite album of theirs? It's a tie between III and IV 3. Your favourite song(s)? Immigrant Song, Black Dog, Bron-y-Aur Stomp, The Rain Song, Gallows Pole, What Is and What Should Never Be, Ramble On...just a few that first spring to mind 4. In terms of design, what would you say is their most powerful album sleeve? Houses Of The Holy 5. What colours or colour schemes would you generally associate with the band? Brown, orange, black and white 6. During which period of their career would you say they were at their creative peak? Their time at Bron-Yr-Aur 7. In general, what do you think would be the most effective means of introducing the band’s music to the younger generations? Persuade them to do the festival circuit this Summer!! 8. Who or what made you start listening to them? My eldest brother 9. Apart from the obvious iconic image of the zeppelin, what do you think is the strongest form of imagery associated with the band? The cover of Led Zep I, Jimmys' double-necker and the SwanSong logo 10. Finally, in no more than five words, what do you love about Led Zeppelin? The soundtrack to my life Thanks everybody, I massively appreciate this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
