LED ZEPPELIN ALL THE SONGS - JEAN-MICHEL GUESDO...

Fifty years after their first practice in a Soho basement  Led Zeppelin continues to fascinate
new generations of listeners. While their back-stage debauchery has been the focus of other
books  All the Songs is about the music  detailing the Page's studio magic and inspiration that
made all nine albums go platinum  including Led Zeppelin IV which was certified x23 platinum
and has sold more than 37 million copies worldwide. Studio stories will include their
productive time at Headley Grange in Wales  a poorly-heated former poorhouse where they
recorded parts of Led Zeppelin III  Led Zeppelin IV  Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti.
And how the first album was recorded in three weeks but their second took six months  done
while the band was on a world tour. They carried the masters of the recording session in a
steamer trunk wherever they went. Out of these chaotic sessions came the Whole Lotta Love 
which was finished in New York with Hendrix engineer Eddie Kramer helping create the
psychedelic middle part  as well as The Lemon Song  which was cut live in the studio. Page
worked feverishly with Kramer to mix the LP on a primitive 12-channel Altec board in a two-day
span. Fans will also learn the genesis of their lyrics  the inspiration for their album covers
the instruments used  and the contributions of engineers such as Andy Johns  who helped create
the iconic drum sound on When the Levee Breaks by recording Bonham at the bottom of a
stairwell.
