I was never a fan of LZ, but their fans always told me that they formed in 65 with some help from The Who. It's been said that the 2 bands were hanging out trying to come up with a name and one of the members of Zep said "This is gonna go over like a lead balloon." Keith Moon then said "Yeah! A lead zeppelin!" Jimmy Page liked it....
Yeah, I agree. That's why I chose Greek. Maybe I should have selected Martian?Also, Mr. B, let's not go down the road of encouraging folks to post in foreign language(s) to attempt to evade the rules, we all have translation software available so that wouldn't work anyway
Just had a thought, it's been a long time since I heard the Martian Hop. It was on the charts.Yeah, I agree. That's why I chose Greek. Maybe I should have selected Martian?
I hear that if you play the original Chairman 45 (it HAS to be the original), backwards at 16 RPMs, the song sounds eerily like Barry Manilow's "Mandy."
And to think, I had that very 45 in my hand, bought it from the PX at Ft. Huachuca, Arizona, paid twenty five cents for it. Neighborhood kid's father had a component stereo and it sounded good, especially the opening. Backwards at sixteen rpm, maybe Manilow knew something. Actually, I like Mandy, that's a good song for a time in one's life.I hear that if you play the original Chairman 45 (it HAS to be the original), backwards at 16 RPMs, the song sounds eerily like Barry Manilow's "Mandy."

They say he ate too many Big Macs (you deserve a break, today)...
Also in the book, and other sources, Jimmy Page was still a very popular and in demand session guitarist up until "68"
The 4 of them played together for the first time in August 1968. Their debut album was released in the US on 13 January 1969.
That timeframe sounds about right, as the weather was fairly cool when I was riding around with my Jr. HS. friends in somebody`s beat up Comet, I seem to remember, car with a 8tk player with that just purchased earlier that day 8tk tape LZ debut album was playing, and my friends, and myself were completely blown away by it (Air Guitars were in action), and that first LZ exposure event was forever burned into my brain, even though I had already bought and had been listening to Jimi`s first two albums (Are You Experienced, & the follow up Axis Bold as Love) by that time, and no drugs or alcohol were in our brains that evening !
Not according to Yogi Berra. "It's Deju Vu all over again!"

You ain`t alone, brother ! HA !You want some random thoughts? Just crawl inside my head for 5 minutes and you will have had enough, for a lifetime. I'm amazed I function as well as I do.
