概要

Over ten years after WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH, Mick Wall's seminal biography of the band, comes this major and extensively researched revision, which provides an unflinching look at life inside one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time, and presents 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 protégé, 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.©2008 Mick Wall

批評家のレビュー

So this is the big one: a fat, juicy biography of the biggest band ever...Mick Wall, the veteran rock journalist, lays it all bare in a book that can only be described as definitive
As well as being the most complete account yet of a great British rock band, When Giants Walked the Earth is, as its name implies, a document of a bygone age....Wall has done his subject proud
It deftly strikes the balance between lofty authority and finding a way to get inside the heads of its subjects
This fantastic account of Led Zeppelin's wild and decadent heyday is as detailed and definitive as music biographies get
The definitive account of rock legends Led Zeppelin
A fascinating and diligently researched account of rock'n'roll excess
The definitive book about Led Zeppelin... Mick Wall has done a fine job here and certainly knows his stuff
That Wall can add so much fresh detail to the Led Zep story is in itself an extraordinary achievement. That he manages to humanise these planet-striding giants while doing so puts this book into the "definitive" category
We've read about the booze, drugs, devil worship and deviant sex... Mick Wall delves a lot deeper into the dark stuff
