It has been an exciting year for Lou Anne and me. The past year saw the release of our first two e-books and there’ll be more to come in 2010. We’ve made a lot of new friends in Zep and it has been our pleasure to share with you some information about your favourite band that may have been news to you.
We could think of no better way to review the past decade than to have the man behind Lemon Squeezings: Led Zeppelin News, Steve “The Lemon” Sauer, give us the highlights. He very generously shares a recent interview he conducted with Myles Kennedy, who for the first time speaks in depth about the band he was nearly able to form a year ago with half of Led Zeppelin.
Before we get into that, we’d like to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas or a joyous holiday of your choice and every happiness for the coming decade.
As you know, my first book is called Sonic Boom: The IMPACT of Led Zeppelin. Well, folks, here’s an unusual example of how that impact endures.
This is a bottle of table wine produced in the Finger Lakes region of New York state. Look at the label. It’s called “Red Zeppelin”! On the back, the producers, Fulkerson Wine Cellars of Dundee, NY, admonish us: “Come on, wine people. Loosen up! Have fun with this zesty, etc. ROCK ON!”
We salute the musical taste of these vintners and will raise a glass to all of you this season.
Cheers!
