Stairway To Heaven: Led Zeppelin Uncensored

This account of Led Zeppelin's decadent life on the road by their longtime tour manager dishes up the real dirt as only an insider's report can ( Kirkus Reviews ).
No one knew Led Zeppelin like Richard Cole. The band's tour manager for more than a decade, Cole was there when they burst onto the music scene, achieved cult status, cut platinum records, and transformed popular music. Second only to the Beatles in sales for years, Led Zeppelin was rock's premier group. But unlike the boys from Liverpool, the excitement of this band's music was matched by the fever pitch of their antics on and off the stage.
In hotel rooms and stadiums, in a customized private Boeing 707 jet and country estates, Richard Cole saw it all—and tells it all in this close-up, down-and-dirty, no-holds-barred account that records the highs, the lows, and the occasional in-betweens. This revised edition includes updates on the band members' lives and careers, which may be a little quieter now, but their songs remain the same.
