Notes

A comprehensive study of Led Zeppelin’s music, track by track, album by album
One of Britain’s most successful groups from the 1970s and still highly respected today
A group who had a new lease of life following their one-odd return for a concert in 2007
Part of the exciting and expanding Song by Song series
From their formation in 1968 until their disbanding after the death of drummer John Bonham in 1980, Led Zeppelin were the most influential group in popular music since The Beatles.
While seen as pioneers of British heavy rock, their sound also embraced blues, psychedelia and folk music. Earlier in his career, Jimmy Page had been a highly sought-after session guitarist, while John Paul Jones was a versatile multi-instrumentalist and experienced arranger, and Robert Plant was one of the most individual vocalists of the era.
A deal with Atlantic Records allowed them total musical control, and a deliberate policy of not allowing any tracks to be released as singles in Britain helped to ensure maximum demand for their albums and huge ticket sales every time they toured. Initially unpopular with critics, they were much loved by fans on both sides of the Atlantic and indeed throughout much of the world.
Led Zeppelin: Song by Song provides a thorough examination of each track on all the group’s studio albums, additional songs on official live releases and compilations of BBC sessions material.
