1969:
Eleven months. That's all it took for Led Zeppelin to go from embryo to Carnegie Hall. No rock band had played that venue since the Rolling Stones, five years prior, when rock performances were banned after a riot at the Stones' show. But Led Zeppelin had shot into the stratosphere like a rocket and could not be denied.

"This performance makes me realize we can be bigger than The Beatles and the Stones," Peter Grant told Richard Cole shortly after.

2012:
43 years later, Jimmy Page was in Japan promoting the remasters, which have reached top ten on the charts once again. There won't be any more new Led Zeppelin - but Jimmy Page is, from his own account, working in his studio right now. New music from him sometime next year! What a gift!

I'm experimenting with a different media storage option for music files I can't find on the web. So far nothing I've found has made me happy. The two below are Amazon Web Services links. Do they work for you? I had trouble uploading, so don't know if I'll settle for AWS. Suggestions?
