On This Day 16 June

Having gained so much from his music, he gives back of his music

In 1969 Led Zeppelin recorded for three and a half hours at the BBC studio in London for a Sunday morning broadcast on June 22. The interviewing done by Chris Grant* is pretty funny in its own inanity but I'm thinking that it probably irritated Jimmy Page no end. Having a guitar in his hands to strum - as he often did then for those early interviews - might have been how he kept from saying something he might regret. Just a guess, mind you, but Mr. Page is not known for his patience with stupid interviewers.
