Led Zeppelin Autographs

Quickly renaming themselves Led Zeppelin, the band toured the United States as the opening act for the American rock group Vanilla Fudge. They released their first album, Led Zeppelin I in 1969, which earned mixed reviews. As John Mendelsohn wrote in Rolling Stone magazine; “jimmy page autographed concert ticket, around whom the Zeppelin revolves, is, admittedly; an extraordinarily proficient blues guitarist and explorer of his instrument’s electronic capabilities. Unfortunately, he is also a very limited producer and a writer of weak, unimaginative songs; and the Zeppelin album suffers from his having both produced it and written most of it (alone or in combination with his accomplices in the group).” While critics may not have been thrilled by their work, music fans enjoyed such tracks as the now classic “Dazed and Confused.” Their songs showcased Page’s skills as a musician, often featuring his intense guitar riffs.

Songs

Led Zeppelin soon developed a strong following. Music fans really enjoyed the band’s hard rock and heavy metal sound. Their second album, the aptly titled Led Zeppelin II (1969); featured “Whole Lotta Love,” “Ramble On,” and “Heartbreaker.” “Whole Lotta Love” reached the No. 4 spot on the pop charts, and the album reached the top of the charts by year’s end. Again, Page worked behind the scenes, serving as producer for the recording. He also wrote or helped to write the music for many of the band’s songs while Plant served as the group’s main lyricist.

In 1970, Led Zeppelin released the more folk-influenced Led Zeppelin III. The single, “Immigrant Song,” became the band’s latest hit. Many critics saw the group’s fourth album, however, as their best work. This 1971 untitled work is sometimes called the Runes Album for the symbols on the cover; which reflected Page’s interest in the occult. The album offered listeners such songs as the legendary “Stairway to Heaven,” which became one of the most requested rock songs of all time despite its startling 8-minute length. “Black Dog” and “Rock and Roll” were other significant tracks from that album.

Returning to music, Page helped revive Led Zeppelin in 2007 for a special benefit show for the Ahmet Ertegun Education Fund, named for the late co-founder of Atlantic Records. Tickets sold out quickly for the first appearance of Led Zeppelin in 19 years; (with Jason Bonham again filling in for his late father on drums). The concert held on December 10 at London’s O2 Arena; and it proved to be a triumphant return for the famous 70s supergroup. Critics raved about their show, which lasted more than two hours. Rolling Stone had high praise for Page; writing he “was a continual shock on guitar. Mostly because he has played so little in public for the past decade. In addition, at sixty-three, Page is undiminished in his sorcerer’s mix of reckless ferocity—stammering runs. Strangled howls, granite-block chords—and guitar-army wow.” Rumours swirled about a possible Led Zeppelin autographs reunion.
