MHD Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Led Zeppelin: Dazed and Confused: The Stories Behind Every Song. I'm pondering on whether to purchase this. Is it accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Led Zeppelin: Dazed and Confused: The Stories Behind Every Song. I'm pondering on whether to purchase this. Is it accurate? Yes. Chris Welch is a well-established, highly-respected journalist who has appreciation for and understanding of their music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanelectroGod Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Great book, but if you don't have the Dave Lewis book, The Concert File, I'd recommend it first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reids Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Yes, I've seen him on the Eagle Rock Entertainment Classic Album series DVDs, like Queen's, A Night at the Opera, Pink Floyd's, Dark Side of the Moon and a few british series rock dvds (where they critique artists/albums). He seems to know what he's saying on the videos. I've never read any of his books, though. I own The Led Zeppelin Concert File, too and it's a great source.

hot dog Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Led Zeppelin: Dazed and Confused: The Stories Behind Every Song. I'm pondering on whether to purchase this. Is it accurate? I have it - certainly not my favourite LZ book but certainly worth adding to the collection. I respect Chris Welch - he's been a rock journalist since the 1960's and has been there and done that. He's been on the road with Zeppelin so at least can write with some kind of authority without relying (too much) on rumour, speculation or muck spraying.
