This definitive 368-page volume includes unseen photographs and artwork from the Led Zeppelin archives and contributions from photographers around the world.<\/p>\n

On September 7th, 1968, John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, and Robert Plant first took the stage together in Gladsaxe, Denmark. Then billed as \u201cThe New Yardbirds\u201d, the band would assemble in the studio for the first time later that month to start recording their debut album as Led Zeppelin, and rock \u2018n\u2019 roll would never be the same again.<\/p>\n

Before the band\u2019s 50th Anniversary celebration officially begins in September, Led Zeppelin will continue their reissue campaign with a new edition of their celebrated live album, How The West Was Won, originally released in 2003, featuring newly remastered audio, which was done under the supervision of Jimmy Page. Details of additional Led Zeppelin 50th Anniversary releases and events will be announced later this year.<\/p>\n

Originally released in 2003, How The West Was Won highlights the best performances from Led Zeppelin\u2019s legendary concerts at the Los Angeles Forum and Long Beach Arena on June 25th and 27th, 1972. Melded together and sequenced to replicate a single concert from beginning to end, the three-CD and four-LP collections capture the band at the height of its formidable powers. Standouts include a 25-plus minute version of \u201cDazed And Confused\u201d and a 21-minute medley based around \u201cWhole Lotta Love.\u201d The performances also capture the band introducing songs from its then-unreleased album Houses Of The Holy, which would be released nine months later.<\/p>\n
