linda. Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Sorry.... I mention the wrong book before.. The books name is The story behind... I was so happy receiving this book, because I wanted to learn about the story`s of all the great Zeppelin songs...but it was not what I expected.... Is there any one out there knowing what book who tells the story behind their songs, and what the songs is about,,who can help me??? Hugs from Norway Linda.

linda. Posted July 26, 2008 Author Share Posted July 26, 2008 Thank you so much for your answer:-) Yes that is the book...I was a bit dissapointed, because it doesn`t tells us about the story behind the songs. I wanted to know if the songs were about their wifes, children friends, or something like that...but the only thing it tells us..is were trhey were when they wrote the songs or werte they did record it. It doesn`t really tells us the story behind the songs,I must confess that I was rather dissapointed. Please excuse my enlish:-) Hugs from Norway. Linda.

Though I have not bought yet. I had only examined it. I heard this book is a kind of an explanation about what is the origin of the tune. Because it seems that they do not have original tunes, I do not like this book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maureen Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Dear Linda, hi! I'd like to know some stories too, I have a book...ah I hardly remember how it's called...but there's only the history of the band and something else... All I know - "The Girl I Love She Has Got Long Black Wavy Hair" song is about Robert's ex-wife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I was dissapointed...it has some interessting things and some nice pictures, but it was NOT what I was looking for??? I think the title "The story behind every song" is miss leading!!! The book doesn`t tell you this. Hugs LInda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
