After two years of podcasting, we finally get to one of rock’s most iconic bands, Led Zeppelin. Aussie guitar god and Melbourne rock institution Ash Naylor, frontman of Even, joins me at his local football grounds to talk about Zep’s 1973 album ‘Houses of the Holy’.
How does the record mark the transition between the first and second parts of the band’s career? What Keith Richards quote applies to the band’s style? How did they replace blues with funk? What did Ash learn about the album from having to play it live? and how did it go when he met Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones a few years ago?
