Jimmy Page knew Led Zeppelin had to conquer America

Here’s how they did it...

Dear Friend,

Forget about mudsharks and bean baths. That fanzine-type stuff is interesting but it’s been done. And what could I possibly ask the members of Led Zeppelin that they haven’t been asked before?

I really get off on hardcore research. I’ve spent the past 12 years or more analyzing Zeppelin’s music in a very unusual way. But…

Along the research trail, I met the most amazing people who shared their stories with me.

Suddenly I realized no one had EVER written about Led Zeppelin from this angle before!

So I put my music analysis on hold (for awhile) and started interviewing the guys who promoted the band. DJs. Musicians who shared the bill with them. Audience members who were there in the earliest days of Zeppelin’s history.

University professors who gave me their take on the music itself. Over 50 different people. It’s been an eye – and ear - opening journey!

Then, on the 40th anniversary of Zeppelin’s first-ever gig, I published my first book: Sonic Boom: The Impact of Led Zeppelin. Volume 1 – Break & Enter.

Here’s what people have to say about it:

“One of the most thorough and engaging books ever written about Led Zeppelin.”
- Gerard Sparaco, Music Collectors’ Reviews, Little Valley, New York

“The curators here at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame just LOVED Sonic Boom! May we please keep it in our department library?”
- M. Rutledge, Assistant Curator, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Cleveland, Ohio

“As an exercise in solid research work, Sonic Boom is as good as it gets and essential reading for Zep fans keen to find out how the seeds of the Zeppelin legacy were sown.”
- Dave Lewis, published Led Zeppelin author and editor of Tight But Loose magazine, Bedford, England

Sonic Boom is just FULL of exciting, never-been-known-before stuff like this.

Here’s a sampling of what you’ll discover:

• Insights that stunned the Zep community because no one had ever thought to interview the people who were there when the band “broke” in Scandinavia and “entered” the North American market

• Put yourself in the audience, seeing and hearing Led Zeppelin for the very first time. These people were THERE…now you’ll feel you were, too

• Hear things in Led Zeppelin’s music you’ve never heard before

• Interviews with university profs and musicologists that will blow your mind, even if you’re a seasoned musician yourself

• Gain a deeper appreciation for the band’s musicianship and Jimmy Page’s production expertise

• Unravel the mysteries of WHY the band’s music still dominates classic rock radio after more than 40 years

• Go back to that very first gig. Three people who were at Gladsaxe Teen Club tell you all about it. Jerry Ritz took Zep on the band’s first tour of Scandinavia. Jorgen Angel caught the band on film

• At last! Proof that Zeppelin really did perform as The New Yardbirds

• Hundreds of pics, including many you’ve NEVER seen before

• 736 pages of fascinating info in a collectible hardcover book you’ll want to read again and again

So here’s what I’m going to do to take the sting out of the shipping charges…

When you buy Sonic Boom Volume 1 and pay for shipping, you'll get my ebook on J.J. Jackson as a FREE BONUS! That’s a value of $47.

J.J. Jackson Remembers Led Zeppelin:
The Music and The Guys Who Made It

The late J.J. Jackson was a DJ in Boston when Led Zeppelin first performed at The Boston Tea Party, in January 1969.

Peter Grant and the band credited him with much of their initial success and J.J. became a close friend to the guys in Zep.

• Relive those Tea Party gigs with someone who was there! J.J. describes the venue, the audience and – best of all – he compares the actual concerts to live vinyl recordings of them

• Be among the first on the planet ever to read these six EXCLUSIVE interviews that renowned Led Zeppelin authority, Dave Lewis, called “fascinating conversations” in his Foreword

• Unique, brand-new information you can’t get anywhere else!

• Robert Plant dedicated Since I’ve Been Loving You to J.J. Jackson at Led Zeppelin’s Inglewood concert in June 1973. J.J. tells you how he felt about that

• Find out why J.J. hid from John Bonham at the party following “Bonzo’s Birthday Bash” gig!

• J.J. sent me some pics from his private collection. See Jimmy Page checking out his wah-wah pedal on stage at the Carousel Theatre on Aug 21, 1969

Steve “The Lemon” Sauer of ledzeppelinnews.com had this to say:

“Reddon makes a brilliant move seldom seen elsewhere: He provides his interview subject with some live audio recordings of Led Zeppelin shows Jackson personally attended, prompting further recollections.

There is no other book on the market like this one!

It lets you experience the firsthand accounts of someone who not only had those concert memories but also had unparalleled access to the band in its formative days. It is a joy to read!”

This ebook is $47 because it contains unique information that NO ONE (except Dave Lewis, some reviewers, my editor and I) had EVER read before. You won’t find it anywhere else.

But you can have it FREE with the purchase of Sonic Boom. And you can download it and start enjoying it right away.

If you don’t LOVE Sonic Boom – Volume 1... You can return it for 100% of your money back within one full year of purchase. No hassles. No questions asked. And you can still keep the J.J. Jackson ebook as my gift to a fellow fan. The only risk is waiting too long to order, because we only printed a limited number of these first editions. Once they’re gone, that’s it. Forever.
