Great read
Interesting book for Led Zep fans. It provides a different perspective on how Zeppelin came to be.

More interesting for the non Led Zep aspects
Many already known anecdotes, but some unique Peter Grant insight make it interesting, particularly pre and post led zeppelin

Great read
Great book on a man with many sides ,not as many salacious stories to read instead more heartfelt, real, human Yes there were scandalous things like Oakland but told in a minute by minute account. A great rags to riches to rags to redemption tale

PETER GRANT...Bringing it on Home
Well, does the author "bring it on home"? Almost, but for me, this was an opportunity missed (mostly). Yes there are stories told, but nothing really tasty, or that perhaps a fan of LZ or music of the period doesn't know already (the Bindon years for example). Obviously Grant's life involved him with many many people and bands, and I found the constant naming, sometimes by christian name, sometimes by surname ro be confusing (a good index does help). Not enough detail about the huge concerts and recording sessions, or some of his more unsavoury acts. However, I read the book from Page One to the end though perhaps that was because I hoped as I turned each page the book would get better, as it did for me in the last few chapters. I have perhaps concentrated on the negative a bit much. I was so in love with the music of the period and there was a lot to enjoy. I just wish I had enjoyed it a bit more. Well worth a go, and I kept reminding myself - This isn't a bio of LZ - it's a bio of Peter Grant and is well worth 4 stars in my book!!
