Editorial Reviews
John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant
came together in 1968 as Led Zeppelin. Over the next decade, the band
would become one of the most influential, innovative and successful
groups in modern music, selling more than 300 million albums worldwide.
Their songs are some of the most celebrated in rock n roll history that,
to this day, resonate with fans young and old around the globe. Still,
no matter how many times you may have listened to their music, you ve
never heard Led Zeppelin like this before.
With the 2014 release of deluxe editions of Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, & Led Zeppelin III,
the band will launch an extensive reissue program of all nine of its
studio albums in chronological order, each remastered by guitarist and
producer Jimmy Page.
The band wrote and recorded nearly all of Led Zeppelin II while touring relentlessly to support its debut album. Incredibly, the album was released just seven months after Led Zeppelin in October of 1969. Led Zeppelin II
features some of the band s most beloved tracks including "Ramble On"
and "Heartbreaker" as well as "Whole Lotta Love, " considered by many to
be one of the greatest rock n roll songs of all time. The album is
certified diamond by the RIAA with sales of over 12 million copies.
Led
Zeppelin continues to be honored for its pivotal role in music history.
The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1995,
received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005, and a year later
was awarded with the Polar Music Prize in Stockholm. Founding members
Jones, Page and Plant along with Jason Bonham, the son of John Bonham
took the stage at London s O2 Arena in 2007 to headline a tribute
concert for Ahmet Ertegun, a dear friend and Atlantic Records founder.
