This issue of Classic Rock goes deep into Led Zeppelin at full power, framed around the band’s story told through their own voices. Built around an “In Their Own Words” style feature, it follows the madness, momentum and myth making of an era where Zeppelin were untouchable, and takes you inside the touring years that turned them into the biggest band on the planet.

The cover story focuses on an 18 month stretch on the road, exploring the shows, the culture, the excess and the creative peak that defined the group’s most legendary period. It’s a great collector copy for Zeppelin fans, and a strong read if you love classic rock history with real detail rather than quick nostalgia.

Also featured in this issue are additional pieces on Michael Monroe, B.B. King and Smashing Pumpkins, making it a packed edition from cover to back page.
