"PROXIMITY" Vol. 9, No. 31

-LED ZEPPELIN IN JAPAN-


New "PROXIMITY" has issued and features "Led Zeppelin in Japan"! This time I got a chance to work with Hugh Jones for this issue (Thanks, Hugh!). Japanese characters on Obi strip means "Proximity (Heading) - Led Zeppelin Collectors Journal (Sub-heading)". This issue contains: Collective magazines Part 3 (Japanese magazines and photo books), The Tours (Reports, set lists, boot CDs of Zepp's Japanese tour 71/72), Dicography (Of Japanese albums, singles & CDs), The History of Japanese Bootlegs, Page & Plant Unledded in Japan and many usual columns. All contents are really great, I especially recommend "The Tours" featuring the concert reports and rare photos by the people who luckily experienced the Japanese tour. Must have this issue and Time-slip to Japan 1971, 72!
