janeswurld says:

is it weird that i feel intimidated by Page. Not just in this interview but
in others too. all i hear about him and all the history he has. it makes me
cautious 🙁 I like Plant so much better though 🙂 he seems more friendly
and approachable lol not that id ever but if given the chance i would, id
think twice about getting near Page i dont know why :(

rockhard says:

The GOAT no one comes close. I got into zep by pure chance in 1991 a m8
kept wanting to play a tape he had for weeks and I kept putting him off
because I thought they were some heavy metal iron maiden type shit i was 18
and into the doors floyd etc. One night there was 3 of us and we were on
acid he asked again so i said yeah okay just so he would stop asking to
play it and stfu about it. 1st tune that played was babe im gonna leave you
and that was it. An incredible spiritual energy infused me and lit me up
inside like a christmas tree while at the same time a powerful presence
manifested itself within the room. You gotta remove the aldous huxley veil
to understand these guys, they are a conduit.

MIA says:

We had tickets when I was 15 to see Led Zeppelin and then the horrible
tragedy happened to John Bonham. I was blessed to have seen Jimmy Page
twice with The Firm and Jason Bonham opening up for them. It was awesome! I
also saw Robert Plant when he was solo with drummer Phil Collins.
Celebration Day I recently saw on TV and they blew me away. They will
still be the number one band of all times. That’s why I get so upset with
these young kids listening to rap. Zeppelin played their own music and the
lyrics were so incredible and you can tell they were well read. I would so
love to meet them in person. I was mystified by Zeppelin the first time I
heard them when I was 13. 

Spiro Mentos says:

Best plagiarists ever!!! They STOLE a lifetime of music and Royalties from
countless American Bluesmen. Randy California wrote Stairway To Heaven.
That’s okay Zep…Your Time Is Gonna Come. Those bluesmen are waiting on
the other side for you with a shive. Thieving Limey pussies.

Edward Anthony Leone says:

BY FAR the best band to EVER grace our planet. And probably ever will.

Johnny Rocket says:

4:00 Women still just laying it down at Roberts feet. Ha. Amazing.

Claude Rains says:

I wish people would just let it be and enjoy what they gave us. It’s like
they want to go back and do it all over to coin Eddie Money’s song.

I’m just happy I got to see it before Bonham died and that’s great. Besides
you can only touch lighting ones and to go back for more is ridiculous when
their 60+ years old.

LibertarianGuitarist says:

For all the Zep fans born after they broke up, we urge you guys to do one
more tour! We love you and want the honor to witness your glory live!

mike young says:

Born in 1958 I was a child of the sixties, I grew up with Buddy Holly, Bill
Halley, the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Led Zeppelin came along but I
never had an understanding of their music it was so contrary to what was
out there. My older cousin had the Zeppelin album that was out at that
time, which was Led Zeppelin one. Stairway to heaven was always in the
background for me and really the only track I knew of. it was only in my
late 30’s that I ‘rediscovered’ them. I now understand their music and also
understand how far in front and how advanced they were with their music.
I’m now 56, almost 57 and I love to listen to led zeppelin at any
opportunity, like all of their fans. I have so many happy memories of their
music and I think inadvertently helped me through a tough time, listening
to the various albums discovering new tracks and opening up a whole new
World of fantastic rock. May their music live forever. their skills and
talents unites all of the fans. I want to enjoy their music for the rest
of my life.

james marshall says:

jimmy got rob and rob got john and jimmy had john baldwin and thats all
jimmy needed unbeknownst to him lol…..lotta good tracks eh!

ilikepeasandpenis peasandpenis says:

holy fcuk the body language 

rockhard says:

you can tell JPJ is DYING to get back on the road.hes like
were professional musicians, we play music, what the fucks the problem?

Kirk Davis says:

It is never going to happen people so get over it and move on with your
lives.

john s says:

2 out of 3 realize you can’t go back without looking like you’re desperate
for past glories

dennis sagwitz says:

so grateful to have had their music to tone down the teenage angst…and
more….what heights we humans can soar to is demonstrated by our artistic
talents…

tom stewart says:

Jimmy looks uncomfortable with robert’s reluctance, not that i need to tell
you that 

damian damon says:

The Best band in the history of music. Period

Tempest Fury says:

Thanks CBS and this goofy reporter!

WTF is wrong with you? Don’t you realize the MEDIA has a huge influence
upon you – not just to “report” but how entertainers react to it? How the
television audience reacts to your so-called “news” and “truths”?

So, many …many…and many more times I’ve heard the same questions asked
to the members of Zeppelin (or any band really).Don’t you get it? This
isn’t your “big story” you f’cking leaches of human despair!

Let the audience and the band decide “reunions” or whatever….the free
market works! The media is simply a corruptive influence upon millions of
schmucks. Do yourself a favor and shut off your tv – for a week- and read
a book.

Stoneyburke says:

ok they stole lyrics,and That made them famous,they should have credited
the song writers. But those songs were shit without Zeppelin . Those songs
were blah by the original Artists. They were just some songs .Zeppelin made
them Great.

Renee Hill says:

Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix and Slash are in my option the best guitarist of
my time.


Guitar Tech says:

WHO THE FUCK IS ON A SKYPE CALL????

Dave Allan says:

Mad, Bad and Dangerous to know-perfect!

mathew marcus says:

robert plant and jimmy page copied stairway to heaven from the band spirit
and their song taurus. and they also copied lots of other songs. they are
frauds

Azznbad says:

Plant understands something most atheletes, and rock stars don’t get. Even
though they could mount the stage and put on credible shows, you can’t go
back and “kick ass” the way you did back in the day. I think he probably
saw people like Sinatra preforming after his talents had left him and just
doesn’t want to be remembered as less than the extrodinary band they were.
Page on the other hand, craves the spot light. Neither is right or wrong,
they just need different things.

T Thoy says:

Not only did Led Zeppelin have 10 albums at #1 on the Top 10 Billboard
Charts, they had an industry first 6 albums on the charts ALL AT THE SAME
TIME. No band has ever remotely approached the drawing power that Led
Zeppelin always commanded.
No band before or since has even come close to Led Zeppelin. PERIOD

toxie vope says:

Yes! Their good musicians, Their not my God.

amasalg says:

“That’s must have been you, John.” Hahahaha… Jimmy’s face says all. Epic
! He was mad bad and dangeours to know. Fuck*** awesome, still is.

Tim Rubin Halcomb says:

Well, believe it or not, no wrinkles so far LOL
But, I was a teenager in the 70’s and seen these awesome dudes quite a few
times.
I will always love and cherish those memories and GOD DO I MISS THE CHIX!
LOL

Brian Rapp says:

1975 marta hersh and Brian rapp were the del mar surfkids of the LED zep
generation canyonlocalfilmscom

Giovanni Garzelloni says:

Do they look like a bunch of left over geriatrics or what? They have NOT
aged gracefully that is for sure. They all look like 10 miles of bad road.
Robert Plant looks the worst. Looks like he got beat with an ugly stick.

Gary Chen says:

11:40, Jimmy is so funny!!

Rahoorkhuitable says:

6:00 I have this as a poster – fantastic picture!

elvisP says:

Blah , blah , blah, Robert Plant leaves out the part where he had to become
a Freemason. and make a Luciferian pledge, hats how they made the big
time. Buy prostrating themselves to the Freemason scum suckers who own the
entertainment industry and want to morally denigrate the world . Jesus
Christ is Lord

FAITALA tube says:

Haha 01:33 Plant “How was that?” Page “Superb..” (nudges John Paul)

Brian Rapp says:

1965 Paul rapp my dad put me in the opeaning of the wild angels with peter
fonda smoking a joint canyonlocalfilmscom marta hersh rules

mottthehoople684 says:

I saw them in 1975 at the Garden….

Anti Goon says:

Page looks chinese a bit! Ah ha! No wonder. I was wondering why he would
steal so much work that others did. Now I see! He’s chinese! I figured it
out!

mathew marcus says:

robert plant and jimmy page copied much of their music from other artists.
they are both big frauds

david harrison says:

their stoned…

FR22AN28 says:

Jimmy looks still aesthetic, very attractiv. He appears like a member of
the pre raphaelite brotherhood. 

XTheSonofTheSunX says:

hella head of hair on robert for being 64

zep fan for life

moncorp1 says:

Plant has a giant head….and I don’t mean ego…. I mean he physically has
a giant head!

Heidi Davies says:

Celebration Day is AMAZING! And as a fan born after their hey day (but
growing up with Zeppelin), I’d give big money to see them live. Just one
more tour boys, with Jason Bonham. 

Ellie Arceo says:

Oh goddd Jimmy you’re killing me 2:05 

98kiyoko says:

bahaha is anyone else cracking up at jonesy’s fingers

Escape2Muszik says:

One more tour. I was born in `74 so I was too young then. One more for us
who were born too late. I bougt Celebration Day and loved it. What I’d
give to see them play live. I personally think a farewell tour would be a
hit for them. The day those 4 men got together to jam was the day the rock
gods blessed this world with Led Zeppelin.
