The music, presence, lore, and mystique of Led Zeppelin have contributed to almost every detail of the modern musical world. They set new standards for live performances, broke down traditional musical barriers, advanced the art of recording by light years, and contributed to the very definition of rock music. Never has a single band done so much in the way of progress as Led Zeppelin. Together, John "Bonzo" Bonham, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and Robert Plant created new musical templates and explored them as would a horde of vikings; aggressively, reverently, and spiritually. Throughout their brief existence, Led Zeppelin forged new paths for musicians and music lovers alike.
