Stairway to Heaven by Richard Cole

Stairway to Heaven by Richard Cole

As their tour operator for 12 years, the author witnessed the making of the band and the often bizarre life-styles of Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Bonham and John Paul Jones. This book tells the stories behind the myths: how a diverse rock group of musicians became one of the most powerful, popular and enduring rock bands of all time; how the group's unparalleled appetite for sexual excess exceeded the wildest rumours; how they had an almost mystical chemistry between them during their concerts; the friendship with Elvis and The Who; the tragic death of Robert Plant's son; the truth about Page's dabbling in black magic; and the group's descent into heroin, alcohol and other drugs, which ultimately proved fatal to drummer John Bonham.
