LZ-’75: The Lost Chronicles of Led Zeppelin’s 1975 American Tour: by Stephen Davis

Brian Robbins December 3, 2010 No Comments

Rather than an “I was there and you weren’t” account of hanging out with ’70s rock gods, LZ-’75 manages to make all concerned seem rather mortal in their own way. The impetus for Davis to write the book after all these years was the recent discovery of a box of long-lost treasures from the tour. Call it a time capsule if you will; a happy accident seems more apropos.

Jeffrey Greenblatt November 15, 2010 1 Comment

Earlier this fall Robert Plant released his latest foray into the world of roots-rock with Band Of Joy via Round Records. The album, named in honor of the experimental blues band he played in with John Bonham prior to forming Led Zeppelin, features Plant backed by an impressive band of top-notch roots musicians including Patty Griffin, Buddy Miller, Darrell Scott, Byron House and Marco Giovino.

Plant & Co., who played a brief summer tour, have confirmed that they will head back on the road for a 15-date North American tour that will kick off on January 18 in Asheville, NC at the Thomas Wolfe Auditorium and includes a high profile stop at New York’s Beacon Theatre on the 29th. Joining Plant as the opening act will be DUOLOCO otherwise known as Cody and Luthor Dickinson of the North Mississippi All Stars.

Leslie Michele Derrough August 13, 2010 No Comments

With only 12 American concert dates scheduled this year, Robert Plant walked out onto the stage of the historic Saenger Theatre in downtown Mobile, Alabama, with a gleam in his eye and a smile on his lips. Resuscitating one of his first bands, The Band Of Joy, Plant is moving forward by actually stepping backwards.
