ReviewsReview for Pink Floyd All the Songs : "This chronological presentation of everything Pink Floyd will satisfy the most hard-core fans and captivate those unfamiliar with the band's massive musical output." -- Booklist, Review for Pink Floyd All the Songs : "Even superfans of the rock legends will learn something new." -- Entertainment Weekly, "Here's a perfect gift for the Led Zeppelin completists who have every recording by the legendary rockers. There are also over 500 photos."-- Dayton Daily News, "Necessary for the rabid fan, certainly, but more than worthy of a look, and a whole lot of fun, for the rest."-- Jambands, Review for Pink Floyd All the Songs : "Even superfans of the rock legends will learn something new."-- Entertainment Weekly

SynopsisLed Zeppelin All the Songs takes a deep dive into the innovative recording history of the one of the most influential rock bands of all time--covering every album and every track that Led Zeppelin has ever produced. More than fifty years after their first practice session in a London basement, Led Zeppelin continues to fascinate new generations of listeners. While their legendary backstage antics have been written about extensively in other books, Led Zeppelin All the Songs focuses on the music, detailing the musicianship and lyrical inspiration that helped each of the band's nine albums go platinum, including Led Zeppelin IV, which has been certified platinum 23 times and has sold more than 37 million copies worldwide. This book is filled with fascinating behind-the-scenes stories of life on the road and inside the recording studio. Fans will learn the meaning behind some of the band's classic lyrics, as well as the inspiration for all of their album covers, which instruments were used on every track, and the importance of contributions from engineers, sound technicians, producers, and other behind-the-scenes professionals who helped Led Zeppelin become one of the most popular bands of all time., 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., Take a deep dive into the innovative recording history of Led Zeppelin, in this newest addition to the fan-favorite All the Songs series.

  • Too comprehensive, thankfully

    It’s great- very comprehensive, too comprehensive for my interest, so I just skip over all the technicals that make my eyes glaze over. But I have learned a few new things about music production and arrangement from giving some of those sections a chance. The book strikes an even balance of backstory/anecdotes-the who/what/where/when/why, with the how. Much to learn⚡️

  • A must for die-hard Zeppelin fans

    This book is loaded with information that even the most ardent fan will find interesting. It does come with a paper book cover which contributes to its cheaper price. Even though this is the one thing I'm not fond of, its a small detail that's easily overlooked .
