What Was The Beatles' George Harrison Thinking About Led Zeppelin?
Led Zeppelin’s music engineer, Glyn Johns spoke in an interview with SiriusXM and remembered the time when The Beatles guitarist George Harrison reacted to Led Zeppelin.
Here’s the story:
“I was working with The Stones around the same time this record [‘Led Zeppelin’] was made. We were putting together [1968’s] ‘The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus,’ which was a TV show which had a lot of different artists on it.
Just after I’d finished this record [‘Led Zeppelin’], I was going to a production meeting for that [‘The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus’].
We were all kicking around ideas of who should be on it and I took this record and played it at the production meeting to Mick [Jagger]. ‘Jimmy [Page] put this band together with John Paul Jones. It’s gonna be absolutely huge!’ But Mick didn’t get one side of it. Probably still doesn’t.
