Why led zeppelin disband?

The Beatles stopped performing live for a variety of reasons. One, they couldn't hear themselves due to the screaming of the teenage girls who invariably showed up at their concerts. Of course, the people who came to their shows couldn't hear them either. So what was the point of playing live anymore? At that time amps and p.a. systems were quite primitive and underpowered and simply couldn't provide the volume needed to rise above the thunderous audiences. Second, they were actually fearful for their lives, having received numerous death threats and endured some truly dreadful experiences while on the road. Third, they had by 1966 performed together many many hundreds of times; they (particularly George and John) simply were weary of going on the road. Fourth, they were experimenting with new sounds and arrangements and felt they could not reproduce their new material live; therefore they felt a focus on recording was more appropriate. Fifth, they made a lot of money from releasing records. They didn't really need the income from live appearances. I'm sure there are many other reasons...these are just a few.

Is Led zepplin a devil worshiper?

No, the members of the band Iron Maiden do not worship the devil. I don't know, they didn't confide in me. I'm pretty sure that publicly they would not admit to it though, because I know there are many mothers and fathers who would not allow their music in the home if they professed to devil worship.

No, they don't. They were accused of it in the 80s, but if you actually listen to their lyrics they, like Black Sabbath before them, warn against getting mixed up with the Devil. And in fact, many bands have claimed to be Satanic when they aren't to get the publicity; Iron Maiden aren't one of them.

Take your time and read their lyrics, watch a couple of video interviews on youtube and you will know what it's all about. No worries, there's no satanismus involved.

How much money did Led Zeppelin make?

How many of the Led Zeppelin band members are alive?

No, John Bonham is dead, if they lose 1 member, they are officially dead.
I assume that you are asking whether or not Led Zeppelin are still together. If so, no, they are not, as they disbanded on December 4, 1980, after the death of drummer/percussionist John Henry Bonham (A.K.A. Bonzo) on September 25, 1980. Bonham apparently died of asphyxiation after consuming 18-24 measures of over-proof vodka the previous night. In 1985, the surviving members of Led Zeppelin reformed to perform at Live-Aid, with Phil Collins & The Late Tony Thompson ( Ex- Power Station ) replacing John Bonham on drums. Then in 1987, Zeppelin reformed again to perform at Atlantic Records Anniversary , with John Bonham,s son Jason, replacing his dad on drums. The band then performed at Jason Bonham,s wedding several years later. Apparently, there have been rumours circulating regarding a Led Zeppelin reunion for several years. The reunion was a one -time performance to celebrate the life of Atlantic Records founder, Ahmet Ertegun, who died in late 2007 after hitting his head while attending a Rolling Stones concert. The success of this Led Zeppelin performance fueled rumours of a new studio Cd & tour, but despite the various media reports regarding this new Zeppelin Cd & tour, it seems that it will not happen, as Robert Plant has allegedly stated that he does not plan to do any touring for the next two years, having toured with country/Bluegrass vocalist/musician Allison Krauss, in support of their Cd Raising Sand.

Is Led Zeppelin going to tour again?

It seems highly unlikely. Although after the O2 Arena reunion it seemed fairly likely but shortly after Robert Plant stated he wouldn't do it. Recently Jimmy Page was quoted as saying "Zeppelin won't tour, with or wothout Robert". Whether you choose to believe him or not however is up to you.

Why is Led Zeppelin so good?

I feel compelled to field this one, being a contributor to sites like Allexperts, etc. Frankly, it's simple - they crafted infectious, memorable riffs and melodies that stuck in our heads for years to come. Sure, they had a "larger than life" stage presence, and "Stairway To Heaven" was unavoidable in the 1970s. But frankly, they drew people in with awesome, raucious, unforgettable melodies and guitar licks (like that of "Whole Lotta Love", "Black Dog", "Kashmir") and countless people found curiosity in this band, went out and bought one of their albums, and fell in love. Their music was just beautiful and varied - they went from folky acoustic tracks to hard edged, bluesy numbers, and everything in between. They earned the adoration of the millions through variety, soul, and just plain catchy anthems. It's simple all killer no filler

Who is Robert plant married to?

Of course it was hush hush.....it would be called UNDERAGE!!! At least his women aged as he did unlike Mr Page...........

So I will elaborate..................I saw an old flame of his at the Chatt Tenn concert with Allison Krauss. Funny thing is I recognized her right away only because I did a lot of photography work back in the day and those days my stomping ground was Miami. This girl appears in many of my pics of those days. There were a small group of girls(Groupies) that hung around the local bands here, but she stood out because she was not one of them. She was obviously VERY young, but of course so was Robert back then.........that is what my first comment refers to. I saw her a lot aroung the concerts, very tall, blonde and hot in an innocent way. No make up natural girl, unlike the other girls. I was at a party in Miami very early on and there she was, sitting with him, and it was a little weird, he just waited on her and it stands out because she kept sayng she had to leave because of the time but she didn't drive so the driver had to take her. Robert didn't even want the river alone with her so HE went WITH THEM!!!! When he left the guys were making fun of him saying they should call Mummy!

Thanks for the clarification.Unfortunately, I thought that most of the groupies were alike.Just the Sable Starr types.Is she still gorgeous even today?

Sable Starr!!! Not beautiful by a mile

Sable Starr was just ok but most people judge only by the groupies seen in pics......Sable, Lori Maddox, Morgana.....and Miss Pamela. There were so many more groupies and girlfriends kept away from the press for obvious reasons. The ones in all of the pics are the same girls you see over and over........ glazed eyed and willing to do anything with almost any band. Most of these girls were the ones in LA who later on in life tried to cash in on the fact that they were basically lost , stoned young girls sleeping with anyone. The claim to fame is ?????? So what I am saying is that there WERE other girls who know who they are.....and keep quiet...and these are the girls that had more of a connection to the guys than the groupies who just offered a quickie. I will get hatemail I am sure but I am 100% correct. I am a living breathing example......that NEVER breathed a word for self promotiion and never will

" I am a living breathing example......that NEVER breathed a word for self promotiion and never will"

Wow!!! I really envy you there.Wish it could've been me!!I would love to email you asking you about your experiences!

Ok I posted on the other question too.....IT MUST be the same girl Lauren that I know from back in the day. We were friend and the photographer that posted I think I know you too..........this is Crystal......from Crystal and Gail from the Grove. This Lauren was last seen by me in the 80's and not looking too much different from the way she looked from the 70's. I met her for a drink at a local club, she had a son and was working in the beauty biz. In the 70's she hung out with a guy named Alice with long blonde hair and his g/f and another girl short with black hair. The thing was that she was always the attention getter, never needed makeup kind of girl and with makeup we hated her....that kind of beautiful....but she was really sweet and really quiet and if I remember correctly was involved musically with a band too. The Robert Plant thing is nothing I know about BUT........she disappeared quite often from the scene. I recall she was still in school tho.......this is a long post ....sorry but memories of Miami and all the good times flooding in. BTW the club she was at when Zep was here on their first tour was Thee Image.......well I would love to find an old friend....lets all look on facebook !

What year did led zeppelin brake up?


Led Zeppelin were active from 1968 to 1980. John Bonham died 'from asphyxiation' by inhaling his own vomit after drinking heavily. After his death, on the 4th of December 1980, the remaining band members released a statement which read... "We wish it to be known that the loss of our dear friend, and the deep sense of undivided harmony felt by ourselves and our manager, have led us to decide that we could not continue as we were".

What Led Zeppelin album featured a brown paper bag for it's cover?

The album was In Through The Out Door. In through the out door The brown bag wasn't "on" the cover; as a marketing stunt, In Through The Out Door was released with five different covers, then packaged in the brown bag. Buyers didn't know which cover they had until they removed the wrapper. Kind of a sad way to try to boost sales.

Did Joan Baez write led zeppelin songs?

Not as far as I know- or at least, I don't believe she ever wrote songs specifically for Led Zeppelin. However, Led Zeppeling did cover material that she'd released (Babe I'm Gonna Leave You) but I think even that had been an adaptation of an earlier folk/roots piece.

Prepared to be corrected on any of the above by those who know more...

What does the song Kashmir by Led Zeppelin mean?

Originally called "Driving to Kashmir,a region in the northernmost part of the Indian subcontinent,Plant explained to rock journalist Cameron Crowe: The whole inspiration came from the fact that the road went on and on and on. It was a single-track road which neatly cut through the desert. Two miles to the East and West were ridges of sandrock. It basically looked like you were driving down a channel, this dilapidated road, and there was seemingly no end to it. 'Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face, stars to fill my dreams...' It's one of my favourites...that, 'All My Love' and 'In the Light' and two or three others really were the finest moments. But 'Kashmir' in particular. It was so positive, lyrically.

How did Robert plant and Jimmy page meet?

Nothing. They are still friends. Robert doesn't want to do the tour because he wants do more stuff with Alison Krauss.

After Walking into Clarksdale and the tour afterward did not make huge colossal inroads, I believe based on what I've read and seen that Robert wanted to try something else...this something different became the Strange Sensations, especially the second album by them is very "Zeppelin" like in many ways, after a concert with back up from the Black Crowes Jimmy toured with them . Page and Plant reunited in 2001 for two shows and in 2007 for the Zeppelin reunion, but they are in two different places musically these days.
