Representaion Concering Books Hammer of the Gods

They were legends based on myths—myths of fantasy, power, and black magic. The tales of their tours were the most outrageous in the already excess-laden annals of modern music. The era of Led Zeppelin personified sex, drugs, and rock & roll.

Based on interviews with the band's musicians, friends, employees, and lovers, Hammer of the Gods tells the shocking story of Led Zeppelin's successes and excesses in the 70s—when Zeppelin reigned as the industry's biggest act.

Exclusive sources. Documents. Interviews. Photos. Revelations about a band—and an industry—at its shameless peak. Read it all, and see why Hammer of the Gods is a classic of rock journalism in its own right.

Column Out Of Books Hammer of the Gods

Just a reminder that Robert Plant used to dress like a deranged fairy prince. I'm totally not judging. To recap: Jimmy Page was into black magic, guitars and underage groupies. John Bonham was the Jimi Hendrix of drummers. He was also a drunk. Robert Plant was prettier than you.John Paul Jones was the only sane one of the bunch. Someone told me there's a girl out thereWith love in her eyes and flowers in her hair One ticket to the land of the ice and snow, please.

A classic book about a classic band. It is completely up to date, until 2007 - that's only last year people! :P I really enjoyed it, I always wanted to know what was coming next and I just about cried when it reached 1980 and it was time to say goodbye to Bonzo. Maybe because I love the band so I'm

The book I have is from 1985, but I won't bother adding it to the database since it's just a mass-market paperback with the same cover shown here.OH MY GAWD, I read this book literally to PIECES in high school!!!! And I have carried it around with me all these years b/c it was just such an obsession for me then, along with my first soulmate, Laura Puffer. (In fact, it was "Led Zepplin #1" written on my shoe that first brought her to my desk in our 10th grade study hall!) I even made notes of all

Great band. Actually THE greatest ever, in my opinion. Not a great book. I've read it twice. Just not written very well. I'd like to find a better bio on Zeppelin and read it, if I could actually part from romance/erotica long enough!

Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. These guys invented it. Yeah, baby.

Book is not well written, but informative nonetheless. Despite claims by many people,this book did make clear that Zepplin is far from approaching any type of godhood status. While I was expecting some best/worst of bachanaal/ Dionysian debauchery... I didn't really get a sense of this band approaching either. Their antics fell more into a general malaise of just plain dumb, low class human debauchery that is related to people acting out that can't handle excess. I found many interesting

I must say that the Led Zeppelin 'family', mainly the manager, Peter Grant, Richard Cole and their road crew behaved more like a violent mob at times than a rock and roll entourage. The fact is they were bullies. They bullied their way on and off of stages, beat onlookers up for little or no reason, etc. Luckily, this author does focus on the music somewhat and does offer some balance between the mayhem and the artistry of the band. It was a rather quick read. I enjoyed most of it. My favorite
