That album is way different than when they started.
Just like Buthole Surfers with Pepper.
Like the after stuff, but much different.

My Dad worked with the bass players mother. Meet Arion at a company picnic in the early 90's. Cool dude. Never really developed a taste for their brand. Heard them played a lot on the local Bay Area radio but never ran out to buy any of their music.

An old, old girlfriend of mine absolutely loved that band. That's really the only song I got into, although the guy sneaks some filthy lyrics into what's essentially bubble gum rock.
Brother ran into the singer when he was working in Manhattan, said he was absolutely tore up at 7 am...I guess he tried to get my brother & his co workers to party with him. When they said no the singer went the, do you know who I am route. Bro was all, yeah, but im not losing my job for 1 day of blow & beers with a teen idol. I guess the guy stomped off after that, lol.

Robert Plant turns down $800 million for Zeppelin reunion
Robert Plant has reportedly thrown a wrench in another "Celebration Day" for Led Zeppelin fans -- though his publicist said the report was "rubbish."
According to a report in the UK Daily Mirror, the Zeppelin lead singer turned down a £500 million ($800 million) contract for a Led Zeppelin reunion.
The other members of the band -- Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones -- were all in, a source told the paper. Jason Bonham, son of the band's late drummer John Bonham, would have taken a fee.
However, Plant's publicist told the UK Guardian that the Mirror report was "rubbish."
The offer to re-form the band was reportedly made by Virgin chairman Richard Branson, a fan of the group, and would have set up dates in three locales: London, Berlin and New Jersey.
"Jimmy, John and Jason signed up immediately," the source told the paper. "It was a no-brainer for them but Robert asked for 48 hours to think about it. When he said no and ripped up the paperwork he had been given, there was an enormous sense of shock. There is no way they can go ahead without him."
Branson would have flown the group around in one of his jets and offered the group the opportunity to do more gigs if they so desired.
"He is gutted," the source said.
Led Zeppelin, one of the most influential groups of all time, broke up in 1980 following Bonham's death, but reunited for four occasions, most recently a show at London's O2 Arena in honor of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun, who signed the band in 1968.
Plant is currently touring with another band, the Sensational Shape Shifters, behind his new solo album, "Lullaby and ... the Ceaseless Roar." He has been skeptical of all the attention Zeppelin inevitably gets, as it has this year with the re-release of its first five albums.
