“Very dubious”: the Robert Plant song Jimmy Page didn’t approve of

March 4, 2026admin0

When the 1960s gave way to the 1970s, rock and roll largely carried on its course. The music grew heavier and new subcultures emerged, but it was more evolution than revolution. The shift from the 1970s to the 1980s, however, was a different story. Suddenly, many rock stars were experimenting with questionable new directions, and […]

“We knew where we wanted to go”: The Led Zeppelin album Jimmy Page wanted “to be extreme”

March 4, 2026admin0

Released in January 1969, Led Zeppelin‘s eponymous first album featured long, exploratory tracks like ‘Dazed and Confused’ and was rooted heavily in electrified Chicago blues, with one eye still cast towards late-1960s psychedelia. For those recordings, Page even wielded a psychedelically painted Fender Telecaster, a fitting emblem of a band still emerging from the technicolour […]

“Has he gone mad?”: The Led Zeppelin song John Paul Jones thought was doomed

February 28, 2026admin0

After paving the path to heavy metal with their late 1960s releases, Led Zeppelin showed the full breadth of their instrumental dexterity as a leading force in the so-called prog-rock wave. Maintaining a heavy edge, primarily thanks to John Bonham’s thunderous percussion, the band separated itself from rivals through virtuosity in all four corners. An […]

HE SAT BEHIND THE DRUM KIT AND ROBERT PLANT COULDN’T BELIEVE HIS EYES. Twenty-seven years had passed since John Bonham died, and Led Zeppelin had vowed never to reunite because “no one could replace Bonzo.” But at the O2 Arena that night, the vow was broken in the most emotional way possible. When the lights hit the drum riser, the person sitting there wasn’t John, but Jason – his son. Jason was the spitting image of his dad, from that slightly hunched posture to the sheer power of his grip on the sticks. When the first thunderous beats of “Kashmir” rang out, Robert Plant turned to look. For a split second, the legendary golden-haired frontman was stunned. His eyes welled up with tears. It was like seeing his dearest friend brought back to life in the form of his son. It wasn’t just music; it was bloodline, a painful yet glorious legacy. But the thing that moved Robert Plant the most was the moment the song ended, when Jason made a small gesture toward his dad up above…

December 10, 2007. The O2 Arena in London. The atmosphere wasn’t just electric; it was suffocating. Twenty million people had applied for tickets, but only 18,000 stood inside. They were the lucky witnesses to the impossible: Led Zeppelin was back. For 27 years, the surviving members—Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones—had held onto […]

The classic rock song that Jimmy Page thought was inadvertently hilarious: “I fell out of bed”

February 26, 2026admin0

Jimmy Page wasn’t the kind of musician who did things for the sake of it, and when it came to writing and recording music, everything was intentional. Page worked as a session musician before he started Led Zeppelin, and that was a huge benefit for him in the long run. The first reason is because […]

February 25, 2026admin0

Any other guitarist would consider working with Jimmy Page to be one of the highlights of their entire career. Even outside of Led Zeppelin, Page was a wizard whenever he had a guitar in his hand, and every single riff that he could think of would have been worthy to be one of the best […]

The Led Zeppelin song about their broken relationship: “And I rue it so much now”

February 22, 2026admin0

By the end of the 1970s, Led Zeppelin were in a state of discombobulation. Having survived the onslaught of punk and disco, the mighty Zeppelin emerged intact as rock and roll’s truest survivors. Nothing could bring them down: not changing tastes, not harsh critical reviews, and not even car accidents or family tragedies. The only […]
