Led Zeppelin: The Biography by Bob Spitz

dark informative
I found this less enjoyable than Spitz's book on the Beatles, but I'm not sure that's any fault of the author's. Led Zeppelin are just kind of depressing people. Phenomenal musicians, but, just, wow, Page's "affair" with   the 14-year-old. Bonham's tendency to beat the crap out of people, unprovoked. Their cocaine loving manager.  I'm kind of glad to be done slogging through this book. I can't imagine the dedication Spitz had in order to write it.
