Customer Reviews
Essential reading
At £6 this is essential for any Zeppelin fan, and is a great illustration of what can be achieved with the ebook format where there is a wealth of multimedia content available. I love the audio descriptions of the various images and the related video interviews, plus the inclusion of documents such as ticket stubs and press releases.
A couple of tiny gripes would be the rather random sequencing (why not keep it chronological?) and the slight frustration in not being able to pinch and zoom very effectively on the strips of raw film that are included, but overall this is a tremendous product and I would recommend it to anyone.
Banging. Best e-book I've bought
What a great e-book. Neal Preston's exclusive images of the mighty Led Zeppelin are fantastic, unique and give great insight into the backstage lives of the greatest band on earth
As a fan, £6 represents great value for money. This book contains video interviews, lots of audio, hundreds of pictures you'll have never seen before and words by Neal and many others
Highly recommended. BONZO!!!!!!!!!!
