Led Zeppelin Aston Martin Car Crash


Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin fame has crashed and totaled his luxury sports car in an ironic twist of Rock Star fate. No, fortunately he did not total the beautiful Aston Martin DB5 thae he was reputed to own, as that car has been sold recently by a classic and collectible car dealer in the UK (London). However, he did have quite a bang up in his Audi R8, totaling out a Mercedes in the process in this accident where fault has not yet been determined in this celebrity OOPS car accident.

The collision brought two speeding vehicles head to head on winding back roads of England in what surely must have looked like a scene from "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" -- you remember... the Walt Disney ride and exhibit that angry Christians and Mothers Against Drunk Drivers made the theme park close down for promoting excessive speed in cars, reckless driving, driving while intoxicated, and driving under the influence as Mr. Toad got his game face on and whipped around the dark and seedy London areas and stoned countryside?

About Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin was initially shaped in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page below the name “The New Yardbirds,” based on Page’s prior band, The Yardbirds. whilst The New Yardbirds arose at first just to complete some shows pledges reserved in Scandinavia before the original band’s break-up, Page attempted to create a rock-supergroup out of the new band, which would have been composed of the Yardbirds’ own Page and Jeff Beck, The Who’s Keith Moon and John Entwistle (who were considering leaving their band), and possibly Steve Winwood or Steve Marriott.

After Page’s effort at making a supergroup unsuccessful, Page packed the band with vocalist Robert Plant, drummer John Bonham and long-time friend and fellow London footage session player John Paul Jones. Page’s first choice as singer, Terry Reid, refused the chance but selflessly suggested Plant, who acknowledged and then brought in his old friend Bonham from the defunct Band of Joy.

After a number of concerts with this new arrangement billed too much as the New Yardbirds, or from time to time simply The Yardbirds, the band’s name was distorted to Led Zeppelin, after a comment was made by The Who’s drummer Keith Moon at the same time as the New Yardbirds supergroup was still a opportunity. Moon (although some attribute the comment to the Who’s bassist John Entwistle) was quoted saying that the band would go down faster than a “lead zeppelin”. The band took on the name, intentionally misspelling the first part to stop fans from speaking it as “leed.”
