Inside the Cages of the Zoo
The Library of America • Story of the Week From Shake It Up: Great American Writing on Rock and Pop from Elvis to Jay Z (Library of America, 2017), pages 151–65. Originally published in Trips: Rock Life in the Sixties (1973). Copyright © by Ellen Sander. ▼ Ellen Sander Ellen Sander (b. 1944) was The Saturday Review’s rock critic in the mid- to late sixties and also wrote on rock for Vogue, The Realist, Cavalier, The L.A. Free Press, the Sunday New York Times Arts & Leisure section, and many other venues. She is the author of Trips: Rock Life in the Sixties (1973), an important source for those seeking to understand the texture and allure of 1960s rock culture. A unique aspect of that culture was captured in Sander’s piece “The Case of the Cock- Sure Groupies” (1968), a remarkably clear- eyed and nonjudgmental account of one of rock’s less celebrated scenes. After her years of rock writing, Sander worked in various capacities in the software industry, from tech writing to computational linguistics. She then returned to her first love, poetry; most recently she served as the Poet Laure- ate of Belfast, Maine (2013–2014). Several collections of her rock journalism are available as Kindle ebooks. ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ ▼ Inside the Cages of the Zoo Some years later, a group called Led Zeppelin came to America to make it, taking a highly calculated risk. The group had been put together around Jimmy Page, who had a heavy personal following from his previous work with the Yardbirds, an immensely popular British group that generated a great deal of charisma in the States.

A Tribute to Led Zeppelin from Hell's Kitchen Liner Notes
Led Blimpie: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin from Hell’s Kitchen Liner Notes Originally begun as a 3 song demo, this project evolved into a full-on research project to discover the recording styles used to capture Zeppelin's original tracks. Sifting through over 3 decades of interviews, finding the gems where Page revealed his approach, the band enrolled in “Zeppelin University” and received their doctorate in “Jimmy Page's Recording Techniques”. The result is their thesis, an album entitled: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin from Hell's Kitchen. The physical CD and digipack are adorned with original Led Blimpie artwork that parodies the iconic Zeppelin imagery. "This was one of the most challenging projects I've ever had as a producer/engineer...think of it; to create an accurate reproduction of Jimmy Page's late 60's/early 70's analog productions using modern recording gear in my small project studio. Hats off to the boys in the band and to everyone involved.. Enjoy!" -Freddie Katz Co-Producer/Engineer Following is a track-by-track telling of how it all came together by Co-Producer and Led Blimpie guitarist, Thor Fields. Black Dog -originally from Led Zeppelin IV The guitar tone on this particular track has a very distinct sound. The left guitar was played live with the band through a Marshall JCM 800 half stack with 4X12's, while the right and middle (overdubbed) guitars went straight into the mic channel of the mixing board and then into two compressors in series. For the Leslie sounds on the solo, we used the Neo Instruments “Ventilator" in stereo (outputting to two amps).

Original Art for Led Zeppelin Debut Album Offered at Christie’S Online
RELEASE | NEW YORK | 08 MAY 2020 ORIGINAL ART FOR LED ZEPPELIN DEBUT ALBUM OFFERED AT CHRISTIE’S ONLINE ONLINE BIDDING: 2 JUNE – 18 JUNE 2020 THE ORIGINAL ART FOR LED ZEPPELIN'S DEBUT LP George Hardie, 1969 Estimate: USD 20,000 – USD 30,000 New York – On 2 June to 18 June, the original artwork for the first Led Zeppelin LP: one of the most iconic album covers of all time will be featured in Christie’s online auction The Open Book: Fine Travel, Americana, Literature and History in Print and Manuscript sale, during the Classic Week series of sales. The estimate is $20,000- 30,000. George Hardie was still a graduate student at the Royal College of Art when his friend, photographer Stephen Goldblatt recommended him to Led Zeppelin in 1969. After rejecting his initial ideas, Jimmy Page suggested that Hardie adapt Sam Shere's jarring 1937 photograph of the Hindenburg disaster. Hardie set to work rendering the image in stipple on tracing paper, evoking the feel of a low-resolution newsprint photo. Led Zeppelin paid Hardie £60 for his work on what has become one of the most recognizable album covers in the history of recording. Peter Klarnet, Senior Specialist, Books & Manuscripts, comments: “The historical significance of this album cover cannot be understated. It marked a major turning point in the history of pop music, heralded by the debut of Led Zeppelin. It was louder, bolder than what had come before and would come to define the shape of hard rock for generations. This simple rendering of the Hindenburg exploding over Lakehurst stands as a monument to that important historical moment.

My colleague and fellow scribe Tony Wilson had secured the precious black vinyl LP and dropped it onto the turntable, awaiting my reaction. We were immediately transfixed by the brash, bold sounds that fought their way out of the lo- fi speakers – Robert Plant’s screaming vocals, the eerie Hammond organ sounds of John Paul Jones, and Jimmy Page’s supreme guitar mastery. But amid the kaleidoscope of impressions, the drums were the primary element that set pulses racing. We marveled at the sheer audacity, the sense of authority, the spatial awareness present on every track. Within moments, John Bonham’s cataclysmic bass drum triplets and roaring snare rolls had signaled a new era of rock drumming. The first time I saw Bonham up close was in December 1968, at The Marquee Club on Soho’s Wardour Street. While The Marquee has long held a mythical status in the rich history of the London rock scene – hosting early appearances by such legendary bands as The Who and The Rolling Stones – it was actually a dark and rather cramped facility with a tiny stage that fronted an even stuffier dressing room.

Bolero Rhythm in Rock
Proceedings of the International Conference on Music Semiotics In memory of Raymond Monelle University of Edinburgh, 26-28 October 2012, UK Edited by: Nearchos Panos Vangelis Lympouridis George Athanasopoulos Peter Nelson Published by: IPMDS – International Project on Music and Dance Semiotics Alison House 12 Nicolson Square Edinburgh, Midlothian EH8 9DF JH3 Copyright 2013 © Produced and Distributed by: ECA - The University of Edinburgh and IPMDS ISBN: 978-0-9576548-0-8 449 The Bolero Rhythm in Rock Mark Yeary, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, USA ABSTRACT The Bolero rhythm, a triplet-infused rhythm pattern derived from Maurice Ravel’s “Boléro”, appears in a number of rock music singles beginning in the late 1960’s. Although Ravel’s highly recognizable pattern is commonly quoted in many genres of popular music, the Bolero rhythm takes on added significance in the realm of hard rock: it acts as a symbolic musical topic that represents military fanfare. In this paper, I provide a brief history of the Bolero rhythm topic as it appears in rock recordings, and I explore the features that characterize this topic—triplet patterns, a featured snare drum, and a unison “riff”—as it is frequently heard in a rock context. INTRODUCTION In the genre of early 1970’s music that we now call hard rock, three bands fought for supremacy: Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, and Deep Purple. Although Deep Purple’s legacy has softened over time, their star burned brightly in 1970; the group that had offered the pretentious Concerto for Group and Orchestra just a year earlier met the new decade with a more focused, no-nonsense approach, as heard in their album Deep Purple In Rock.
