That song did it to me...one of my favorites...lead to me and my best friend starting up REDRUM in his garage...never did much, played a few parties for free beer and wuss...but we were rockstars on stage for a night
Bonham is my favorite drummer of all time. My sister bought tickets to see Led Zeppelin but, sadly, he died before the show so she never got to see them
I agree about Bonham. Damn that sucks about missing the show. Their 1977 tour also ended early because of plant’s son. They peaked in 75. After that they really struggled a lot. But presence is an underrated album. Achilles last stand really shows what kind of band that they could have become. It mutated from a segment of dazed and confused that the played live and plant’s obsession with Morocco. Bonham and Page allegedly wanted to do a heavier album after in through the outdoor. Some of Pages riffs that he was working at the very end can be heard with Coverdale page.
I got to see Page and Plant perform a few decades ago. It exceeded my expectations
I never got see Page, JPJ, but I saw Robert Plant in 1988. I was 5 years old. I remember how exciting it was. the only thing I can really recall is that he did Back in the USSR as his encore. that was basically how I discovered the Beatles. I only recently went back and started listening to the Coverdale Page album and it is a lot better than I remember it being when I was a kid.
