Just a heads up for Zepp fans, this documentary will be hitting IMAX theaters this Thursday.



Just bought my ticket. Excited for this.

If anyone is interested, the book "Led Zeppelin" by Bob Spitz is a fascinating look into the life of the band. Plenty has been written about Bonham and his adventures, but Jimmy was an absolute maniac. And just about all of them were hedonistic, perverted pedophiles outside of JPJ.

Gonnna post it again even if it isn't fully relevant, because it's my single favorite love perfomance ever. And shows what they mean to so many.

That was easily one of the best music docs I've ever seen.

It's almost two and a half hours long, but the editing and pacing is so well done that it flies by. When it ended, I was actually taken aback cause it felt like it ended too early.

That's probably my one and only complaint, that it feels like it cuts off in the "middle" of the story. I could easily watch 5 of these that take us through the entire history of the band.

I highly recommend this to be seen in IMAX for the fantastic sound. I've never heard any of those songs from LZ 1-2 in such high fidelity, and a whole bunch of live performances I'd obviously never seen before.

Can't recommend this enough for Zeppelin fans.

Saw it last night in Imax! It was really awesome, and I'm a LONG time Zep fan who has read all the books, had tons of bootlegs, etc. Some of that audio was absolutely amazing, and the interviews were excellent. Highly recommend!!!

I'm not even a Zep fan and that song has been played to death but dang if that tribute didn't bring tears to my eyes.

What a feeling it must be to be honored by those you inspired, performing one of your creations that well, with so much emotion.

I'd love to see this in IMAX but it's not being shown locally.

It's crazy to think about what ifs, but after the Yardbird's broke up, Jimmy Page was close to forming a new group with Jeff Beck, Keith Moon, John Entwistle and Steve Winwood as a vocalist.

All in all I'm glad things turned out the way they did.

To me Plant is easily the greatest Rock vocalist in history, and only Chris Cornell can even get close to the same universe.

Doesn't look like it's showing here in B/CS. Bullsh as usual.

Looks like my favorite old AMC actually has it through the 12th. Going to have to work this in.

Really good documentary and the sound in the IMAX is terrific. I had no idea that Jones and Page played on so many hits before like Goldfinger, To Sir with Love, Donovan, etc. In fact JPJ arranged the score for Lulu on To sir with Love.

Page was not only a savvy musician but did a great job on their contract with Atlantic Records, I'm guessing that came from his experience as a session musician.

Yeah. Not happy about that.

Looking forward to seeing this but would rather just watch it at home.

To this day, Jimmy Page at Madison Square Garden is the guitar tone I am always searching for.

Caught this over the weekend and thought it was fantastic. So much unseen footage, full song performances, insight from the members, on and on.

I hope this will be a series that covers their entire career.

FYI it looks like this is going much wider this upcoming weekend, beyond just IMAX screens.

Still won't play in every small town, but if you're in a decently big city you will likely be able to see it.

Jason Bonham, John Bonham's son, played the drums for that performance.

Step 1 steal from black artists
STEP 2 Drugs

Step 3 listen to Greta Van Fleet instead
