LED ZEPPELIN: Rock Icons

One of the greatest rock bands of all time, Led Zeppelin's blend of rock and heavy metal with blues, soul, folk, pop, Indian and Celtic ranks them as one of the all-time greatest bands whose influence is still felt today, and whose music is still covered. This glamorous pictorial publication takes a chronological look at their career from the heady days of 1968 when they brought their unique sound to a worldwide audience, through the early 1970s when they were billed as the 'biggest band in the work', and to the 1980s when they became household names on both sides of the Atlantic. Chapters include Whole Lotta Success, On A Stairway to Heaven, Ripping Up the Rule Book, Rock Royalty, Exiled in America, Dazed and Confused, The Cracks Begin to Show and Rock Gods Return. Under the maverick management of Peter Grant, the band flaunted regular rock business conventions in a way that allowed them total artistic freedom. They constantly played audiences with long and compelling performances, and elaborate album covers added to the whole mystique of the band. More than 50 years on, the band remain very much in the present tense. This book is a story of their legend. Packed with quotes from other people, just a bit of history, buy for the revealing pictures alone. Packed with full page colour photos and archive black and white photography, 128pp, 20.3 x 23cm.
