First Broadcast: 3/23/1969

"Almost exactly a year before, Top Gear had featured The Yardbirds’ last BBC session. Now, on 3 March 1969, Bernie Andrews did Led Zeppelin’s first, at the Playhouse. It was only renewing a relationship with Jimmy Page, who had turned up on many of Bernie’s BBC dates as one of the top session guitarists in London. The group had already conquered America, but their first album was only released in Britain later that month, and, save, for Top Gear, UK audiences were then indifferent. ‘They were very loud, but it was very good, says Bernie. " [-John Peel]
