Tetragrammaton

When I was 12 years old, my mom was an antique dealer, and there was always boxes of totty junk around the house.

And in one of the boxes, the little paperback book called

Led Zeppelin by Howard Milit. And I actually have a copy of it here. Fantastic. I'd like to see it.

And it was in the bottom of book. And I didn't know who they were. I found the story really

inspiring because it's four very different guys that as little boys have this idea of doing music and they kind of pursue this dream.

Each in their different ways, you know, two of them becoming session musicians and working within right in the belly of the beast, you know?

Yeah.

And the other two as West Midlanders who, you know, are kind of ostracized by the London music scene.

So you were not a Led Zeppelin fan when you read the book?

I didn't know who they were.

Yeah.

Never heard a note of their music.

So the book really was your introduction.

Yeah. I found out years later when this film came out and I was meeting aficionados, they said this guy was

on the few people the group were close and friendly with. Interesting. And he actually, he had lots of

access to them. They didn't collaborate on the book, but he was around.

Yes.

And there was a tiny number of people that were allowed into the Zeppelin in a circle.

And he was one of them.

And so there was a real sense of who these people were.
