The definitive final word on the world's greatest rock band, Led
Zeppelin. Over ten years after WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH, Mick's
seminal biography of the band, comes this major and extensively
researched revision, which will provide an unflinching look at life
inside one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time, and
present the definitive, final word on Led Zeppelin. They were 'the
last great band of the sixties; the first great band of the
seventies'; they rose, somewhat unpromisingly, from the ashes of
the Yardbirds to become one of the biggest-selling rock bands of
all time. Mick Wall, respected rock writer and former confidant of
both Page and Plant, unflinchingly tells the story of the band that
wrote the rulebook for on-the-road excess - and eventually paid the
price for it, with disaster, drug addiction and death. WHEN GIANTS
WALKED THE EARTH reveals for the first time the true extent of band
leader Jimmy Page's longstanding interest in the occult, and goes
behind the scenes to expose the truth behind their much-hyped yet
spectacularly contrived comeback at London's O2 arena in 2007, and
how Jimmy Page plans to bring the band back permanently - if only
his former protege, now part-time nemesis, Robert Plant will allow
him to. Wall also recounts, in a series of flashbacks, the life
stories of the five individuals that made the dream of Led Zeppelin
into an even more incredible and hard-to-swallow reality: Page,
Plant, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, and their infamous manager,
Peter Grant.
