Merry Zeppelin Christmas

Episode 127 of Ramble on Radio is hitting the servers today. It is, I believe, the 4th annual Christmas episode where I offer Christmas gift suggestions for the Led Zeppelin fan in your life. If you are the family Led Zeppelin fan, feel free to forward the podcast to whoever might need to hear it. Below is the part of the list that includes links.

Many of the books or CDs mentioned can be got by clicking the sidebar links at this sight, and if your Amazon shopping for anything, if you start with a sidebar link, a portion of the final sale will be paid to keep this blog and podcast going.

Take a Picture of This - Part Two

In the spring of 2012, Jimmy Page made five portraits available for sale as fine art prints. Today, JimmyPage.com made another five prints available. Fair warning Christmas shoppers, once again, they are not cheap.

The five photographs, by Chris Dreja, Janet Macoska, Neal Preston, Tony DeFilippis and Claude Gassian, retail for £1,000 each - although the Macoska print of Page in 1977, strolling towards the camera with sunglasses on is sold out. A portfolio set of all five, limited to 10 sets, is also available for £7,000.
