We’ve all groused for years that Jimmy Page’s body of work after Led Zeppelin is patchy, but that doesn’t mean we can’t find some diamonds in the rough. In that light, I collared longtime Goldmine scribe Martin Popoff (also author of one Robert Plant and two Led Zeppelin books) to survey the records and point out some positives. — Goldmine Editor Pat PrinceYes, and to be fair, for all the hoots of derision Jimmy gets, John Paul Jones didn’t stick his head up above the parapet much either.

By Martin PopoffAs we're nicely into 2025 and things in the world are quiet (!), we figured we'd remind our dear readers about what a cool year in the evolution of hard rock and heavy metal we had exactly half a century ago. Toward that end, we've got longtime Goldmine writer (and narrator of the Who Invented Heavy Metal? series on YouTube, based on his book of that name) Martin Popoff on the case, given he was boots on the ground in 1975. Take it away, Martin! -Pat PrinceThanks, boss.
