Led Zeppelin were – and remain – one of the greatest and most revered rock bands ever to hit the world stage. Having sold over 250 million albums, their legend endures.
From their craven blues-inspired debut through the exploration of folk roots and British mythology, the progressive rock bombast of the early 1970s and into the stadium arena of heavy metal at the end of the decade, Zeppelin covered many bases in their twelve years at the top and gave the world a whole new breed of Rock star. They were the greatest of all the super groups.
Their albums contain their own unique and hitherto untold stories. The career and changing times of the band are chronicled in the lyrics and the sophisticated arrangements. Dazed and Confused will, for the first time, augment these classic albums, by looking at the entire output of Led Zeppelin track by track. This will reveal many little-known facts and quirky details behind the lyrics, the methods, the symbolism and the music. It will also convey the decadence of the period – the tours, the heavy living and the price the band paid for their incredible success.
