    About this ebook

    No one knew Led Zeppelin like Richard Cole. The band's tour manager for more than a decade, Cole was there when they burst onto the music scene, achieved cult status, cut platinum records, and transformed popular music. Second only to the Beatles in sales for years, Led Zeppelin was rock's premier group. But unlike the boys from Liverpool, the excitement of this band"s music was matched by the fever pitch of their antics on and off the stage....

    In hotel rooms and stadiums, in a customized private Boeing 707 jet and country estates, Richard Cole saw it all -- and here he tells it all in this close-up, down-and-dirty, no-holds-barred account that records the highs, the lows, and the occasional in-betweens. This revised edition brings fans up to date on the band members' lives and careers, which may be a little quieter now, but their songs remain the same.

    • 4/5
      Let's just say it: John Bonham was a fucking asshole. Stories about Led Zeppelin as human beings are rarely flattering and this book contains many unflattering anecdotes while feeling like it barely scratches the surface. A great reminder to separate Art from Artist.
    • 5/5
      The story of the greatest band in history told by a man that was there. Explaining all the stories, the private jet, being kicked out of china, shark fishing, prostertutes and the octopus, drugs, booze, summoning demons but most importantly the music!
