This is really a 2.5 star read for me, but going to 3 because what the hell, it's about 1973. I wanted to love it, but I just really didn't. I remember some friends of mine going to Cincinnati to see Alice Cooper in 1973 and they loved it. I was never much of an Alice fan. I guess I didn't get them.....or something. Could take or leave The Who for the most part, but Zeppelin?? LOVED them......and my mom HATED them! Didn't really learn much about Zeppelin that I didn't already know from all the other books I've read about them. I did learn that Townshend was the asshole I always thought he was back in the day, and Alice's boozing has always been legendary. It's a wonder the man's liver still functions! Anyway, if you don't know much about any of these bands you could do worse for a read, but if you're pretty familiar with any of their histories already you're not going to get much from this one.
