Ep026: Dave Lewis: Led Zeppelin Author

Музыка

From the moment Dave Lewis first heard "Whole Lotta Love," he embodied Led Zeppelin's spirit. In 1979, he launched the renowned Tight But Loose fanzine, igniting a prolific career as an author of many Led Zeppelin books and magazine articles. Having experienced over 150 Zeppelin-related concerts, his passion for the band knows no bounds. Today, he remains an active figure on social media, enriching fans with insights, reviews, and updates on all things Led Zeppelin. Widely respected as a premier Zeppelin historian, he lives by the mantra: "Not just a band, a way of life."

    I've met Dave twice in London so far. He is a very likeable and enthusiastic Led Zeppelin fan. He carries the Led Zeppelin torch further out into the world. Chapeau. Thank you Mark for your great work.

    One of the biggest Zep fans in the World , right here 👋 Discovered them in the late 80's as a teenager and they changed my life from that moment on. Never looked back. From there I collected everything I could get my hands on. Bootleg cassettes bootleg vinyl, posters, magazine clippings, etc etc. I listened to them every single day for years and years. My room was filled with Zeppelin memorabilia. I loved and breathed everything about them. I was obsessed. They are in my heart, and to me they are the best Rock band that ever existed. I'm 50 years old now, and I still firmly believe that, some 35 years later. I talk about them often on my Channel. Jimmy Page was my first concert for the Outrider tour, 1988. Was lucky enough to see both Page and Plant tours, saw Plant 8 times solo, and saw and met John Paul Jones in 2000 during his Zooma tour

    Anyone who has been a fan of the Blimp since the seventies knows Dave Lewis. He is the 'go-to guy' for all things Zeppelin. Synonymous to the Zeppelin name, a fan and a real historian. Eye thank yew Mark and Dave~ Rob/Boston

    Dave Lewis is an icon. He probably knows more about the band than the band members do.

    His Principle Of Moments band was the first time I saw him, I was 14. That band was great. Zeppelin got their own Universe and always in the present tense. I still have the Howard Mylett book.

    Dave Lewis is fantastic !!! So great to have him on Mark. Seen plant on all his 80s US tours so I like to see that book. I do wish he would sing more 80s songs on his current solo tours. Nice Eddie Vedder name drop, Dave :) . I wish I seen more of the Page & Plant shows seen 3 and I tried and tried but no luck or $$$ for the O2 show was so bummed. Really enjoyed this to hear you and Dave talk and share Zeppelin stories.
