RE: Today in History - Led Zeppelin introduced to USA
I do agree with you as how many bands release an album and there are more than one hit on them. These guys were talented and they have countless songs that are brilliant. They took a chance by touring and it certainly paid off. Nice write up as never knew how they started up. You always think a band would tour depending on album sales.
Yeah I feel the same way. I mean bands tour to support a new album, this is normal. But to tour before your album is even released to an audience that largely has no idea who you are? That takes guts or in their case a true understanding of how epic your lineup is and realizing that the people are going to like it.
I think they honestly knew they would make it as they are a talented bunch. I don't know if they themselves paid for the first album as record studios normally gamble on that part.
