Customer Reviews

For the hardcore Led Zeppelin collector only

This is a book devoted entirely to the collecting of Led Zeppelin non-commercially available recordings (Yes, the infamous bootleg of lore!) and that's pretty much it. Well researched, but listing only CD bootlegs and no vinyl recordings, this is a book for the hardcore Zeppelin collector only. My copy featured a CD that had a interesting interview with the group's guitarist, Jimmy Page, I'd never heard and my being a hardcore collector and fan I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

The only book like it!

Having collected Godwin's books since 1984 I can say that this one was as good as any other. Some reviewers have noticed it doesn't have everything in it. That's because it is VOLUME 2! The rest of the stuff out there was in VOLUME 1. Also this book was published in 1998 and obviously doesn't include the hundreds of new titles that have come out since then. Godwin has never reviewed the performances since his first book. He has always said that his opinion on the band was irrelevent. I would much rather have an objective opinion about the recordings than Rey's tantrums about whether Jimmy was good or not. It is also the only book with pictures of all of those bootlegs. When Godwin's first book came out it helped me avoid buying crap boots. It has been doing that ever since.

Indispensable!

A great update to the original volume, which saves the Led Zeppelin "live recording" collector lots of time and money! If you collect Led Zep bootlegs on CD, then this book is for you!

A MUST for collectors of live Led Zeppelin!

This book is the bible of live Led Zep CDs. Using this book, you will save many dollars and hours when you collect and buy Led Zep recordings. If it saves you from buying ONE bad CD, then this book has paid for itself! Buy it!

Full of information and LOTS of fun to look at!

Mr Godwin takes his book one step further, and enhances it with the medium of CDROM. Its so much fun exploring this CD, because you never seem to get to the end! There is always something new to look at! If you are a collector of Led Zep live CDs, then this book is also very indespensable in terms of guiding you on what is what. This CDROM can keep you from wasting your money on something that you don't want. Plus, Mr Godwin includes LP records in this version, which wasn't in the previous printed version. Recommended! A++++
