Over ten years after WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH, Mick Wall's seminal biography of the band, comes this major and extensively researched revision, which provides an unflinching look at life inside one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time, and presents the definitive, final word on Led Zeppelin.

They were 'the last great band of the sixties; the first great band of the seventies'; they rose, somewhat unpromisingly, from the ashes of the Yardbirds to become one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time. Mick Wall, respected rock writer and former confidant of both Page and Plant, unflinchingly tells the story of the band that wrote the rulebook for on-the-road excess - and eventually paid the price for it, with disaster, drug addiction and death.

WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH reveals for the first time the true extent of band leader Jimmy Page's longstanding interest in the occult, and goes behind the scenes to expose the truth behind their much-hyped yet spectacularly contrived comeback at London's O2 arena in 2007, and how Jimmy Page plans to bring the band back permanently - if only his former protege, now part-time nemesis, Robert Plant will allow him to. Wall also recounts, in a series of flashbacks, the life stories of the five individuals that made the dream of Led Zeppelin into an even more incredible and hard-to-swallow reality: Page, Plant, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, and their infamous manager, Peter Grant.

Great Sheets. Just Not what I was looking for
Color: 01 - White, Size: King, Color: 01 - White, Size: King
I purchased pillow cases which are silky thick and somewhat stretcy.. They felt very high quality to me so i wanted the corresponding sheets as well. I purchased sheets from the same manufacturer but they were made from different materials (my fault for not checking that). The sheets i ended up with very nice in their own way. They are King Size, 100% cotton, and look silky, just not what I thought they would be. They are not that thick but fine. The sheets i wanted were a combination of Cotton, Polyester, and some spandex.

Great sheets and value!
Color: 03 - Gray, Size: Queen
Super soft, cool temperature, grey color matches sample. We got the standard queen for our Murphy bed mattress and it fits perfectly! The fitted sheet stays in place with the elasticity of the banding and the thickness is perfect, not too light, not to heavy.

Soft but very thin
Color: 01 - White, Size: Full
Soft but very thin. Not sure these will last long. Didn’t realize how thin the were until I washed them. They do not come out of dryer wrinkle free. Not horrible but still wrinkled.

Ralph Lauren quality without the price!!
Very soft sheets!! Exceptional quality! Good fit and great value! Got them for my guest bed on queen.. but hubby slept in there a few nights due to his back hurting. Gonna get some for the master king bed this spring. These are Ralph Lauren quality! And that’s all I have on my bed until now! We are those strange people that like sheets to feel cool when you get into bed.. and these are!

Disappointed in quality
Poorly made and not good quality. I had high hopes for these sheets because I love the color. However, after only the second laundering the hem stitching on the pillowcases is actually coming undone. Sleep-quality wise, I found the sheets a little scratchy for sateen, and while we’d hoped they would “sleep cool”, that is not the case. Unfortunately I washed them so I’m unable to return. They’ll go to the end of the line for rotation in emergencies only.
