Led Zeppelin: Shadows Taller Than Our Souls by Charles Cross

Led Zeppelin: Shadows Taller Than Our Souls by Charles Cross

Led Zeppelin retain one of the biggest followings of any band on the planet, even though it is decades since they were still together, touring and recording. Their one-off reunion at the O2 a couple of years ago was the hot gig ticket of the decade, and confirmed by those lucky enough to be there as the greatest gig they'd ever seen. The simultaneous Mothership CD reissue of their greatest hits reinforced the massive explosion of interest in them. This illustrated biography of the band - by top Hendrix and Kurt Cobain biographer Charles Cross - is a visually stunning record of the band's tumultuous career: epic live photos, counterpointed by an informed, lively and trenchant text - and complemented by a rich range of facsimile memorabilia: set lists, concert posters, backstage passes. In the archaeology of rock music Led Zeppelin's American tours of the early seventies, and their final giant Knebworth gig in 1975, have entered legend for their grandiosity, excess and sheer elemental force. They are fully commemorated in this volume, which every Led Zep aficionado will need to have.

Charles R. Cross once had hair as long and busy as Robert Plant's but his trousers weren't quite as tight. Cross was editor of American music magazine The Rocket from 1985 to 2000. He is the author of seven books, including Room Full of Mirrors: A Biography of Jimi Hendrix; Cobain Unseen; and Heavier than Heaven: The Biography of Kurt Cobain, which won the ASCAP Timothy White Award for Outstanding Biography. Cross writes for numerous newspapers and magazines on music, pop culture and parenting. He lives near Seattle. You can find him, and information on his books or lectures, at www.charlesrcross.com.
