LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-JAN 12, 2019…LED ZEPPELIN’S SELF TITLED DEBUT OFFICIALLY IS 50 YEARS OLD TODAY. THE ALBUM WAS RECORDED USING ONLY 36 HOURS OF STUDIO TIME. A LITTLE KNOWN FACT ABOUT THIS ALBUM IS ROBERT PLANT HELPED WRITE MANY OF THE SONGS ON THE RECORD, BUT WAS LEFT OFF OF THE CREDITS BECAUSE HE WAS STILL UNDER CONTRACT WITH HIS FORMER RECORD COMPANY.
LED ZEPPELIN MADE VERY LITTLE TELEVISION APPEARANCES. THEY FELT THEY COULDN’T CONTROL THE MIX, AND AFTER AN APPEARANCE ON FRENCH TV IN 1969, REFUSED TO DO TELEVISION.
SO THIS IS A RARITY ! CHECK OUT THIS GEM OF A LIVE PERFORMANCE FROM 1969 WHEN THE BAND PERFORMED “DAZED AND CONFUSED” ON A PROMOTIONAL TOUR IN DENMARK…AMAZING !!
