LED ZEPPELIN: 'LZ-'75' Book Due This Month

October 15, 2010

There is no denying: LED ZEPPELIN is one of the greatest rock bands of all time. How much would you give to go on tour with them, party with then, ride in their legendary tour jet, hang out with groupies and roadies, and experience countless live performances of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham and John Paul Jones?

Rock writer Stephen Davis got to live out every fan's dream in 1975 as he toured with the band. He took meticulous notes, interviewed the band members, and took amazing candid photos to commemorate the time to share this never-before-seen side of LED ZEPPELIN with the world… but then he lost it.

Fast forward 30 years and Stephen miraculously found the notebooks with everything from the tour… and he wants to share everything with you in his new book "LZ-'75: The Lost Chronicles of Led Zeppelin's 1975 American Tour" (on sale October 28; $22.50). The book contains:

* Lost interviews with Robert Plant and Jimmy Page
* Revelations about a rock star who moonlighted as a heroin dealer
* A show-by-show account of the 1975 tour including technical details and descriptions of how the stage (and backstage) really looked and felt
* Insider info on what really went on at the "Riot House"
* The identity of the lover in "What is and What Should Never Be" and "Black Country Woman"
* Vivid descriptions of the extravagant lifestyle that the band lead while on tour: penthouse suites, weekend trips and late night parties on The Starship

"LZ-'75" will have readers feeling like they're on the road and backstage with the band, night after night. Strap yourself in and get ready to ride on the ZEPPELIN once again.
