How it all began for Led Zeppelin | Music
Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham and John Paul Jones played for the first time together as The New Yardbirds. The name Led Zeppelin only occurred to them later after a derogatory comment by fellow musicians.
Re: How it all began for Led Zeppelin | Music
Led Zeppelin are among the pioneers of hard rock, perhaps even heavy metal. They are one of the most successful and innovative bands in music history. Since their founding in 1968, they have sold more than 300 million records worldwide. Even today, many musicians refer to Jimmy Page and his comrades-in-arms as an inspiration.

At the beginning of their band formation, the members were frustrated more than anything. The band The Yardbirds was in the process of disbanding. Guitarist Jeff Beck had thrown in the towel just shortly before. Jimmy Page then took over the management and the responsibility. Even though the last album had been a flop, contracts still had to be upheld and concerts had to be given. So Jimmy Page gathered together new musicians around him.

He could win over John Bonham for the drums, Robert Plant as singer and on bass, John Paul Jones. In this formation, he wanted to play more radically and uncompromisingly than ever before. "We wanted to start a frontal attack on the ears", Jimmy Page said later in an interview and "just make noise."

Legend has it that fellow rock musicians from the group The Who made jokes about the new band, saying they would sink like a lead zeppelin. That inspired the British rock quartet, calling itself "Led Zeppelin" from then on and catapulting its way into history.

Re: How it all began for Led Zeppelin | Music
This English rock band has been an inspiration for novices. Especially, I love the guitar performance of Jimmy Page. Even after the dissolution of the band, he did great work. Indeed, it is challenging to fulfil the absence of Led Zeppelin. So, Tribute to Led Zeppelin concerts are taking place and I will attend these concerts for sure. Though we can't see the band together again but can give them a tribute.
Work Hard!!!
