Love this podcast
This podcast is fantastic. For all of us zep fans this is best way to enjoy the power and glory of this band. Thank you Mark for putting all this together and continue the amazing work.
Invaluable
I didn’t know what to expect from this podcast, but it’s a cultural dream — especially an example like the interview with Artie Constanzo — these are the people who were there, and the people who have preserved the music for the future. Bravo!
Amazing!
Love this podcast and the latest episode with Strider is absolutely the best one so far. I have not finished it but I hope there is a part 2. If not, there definitely needs to be one. Keep up the excellent work and especially keep interviewing fans that were lucky enough to see Zeppelin back in the day. Thank you!!
