Finished it last night and was disappointed it only goes through Led Zeppelin II. I guess that’s why it is called Becoming though. 

Being Led Zeppelin is what we really want but that ain't happening...

They had to stop after II. Didn't need to covering all the heroin, underage girls, and mud sharks.

I hope it’s the start of a Zep trilogy.  First movie, then one covering their apex (3, 4, houses of the holy, physical graffiti), then one covering their last 3 albums, Bonham’s death and legacy.

Agreed.  No talk of arguably the greatest rock n roll song of all time.

had a hell of a winter and spring so did not have a chance to get this in imax

nice of netflix to spring for some quality content rather than their own made-up bullshit spacefiller

my rating is a tufnel-11

the workprint received a 10-minute ovation at venice '21

they need to bring the 3 of them together in a room while they are still alive

and yes, being lz, they have to do it

Huh. The early days are what I find fascinating. The British Blues scene was an incubator for so much amazing music. Led Zep, The Rolling Stones, Rod Stewart, Fleetwood Mac, Cream, Clapton, Jeff Beck, the Yardbirds, Van Morrison… they all started as young limeys obsessed with American blues, R&B, and rock ‘n roll. And they all matured in different directions to create a sizeable chunk of what many of us grew up with as “classic rock.” 

Plus, the first two albums are by far my favorites. They include the best examples of British Blues ever recorded, the perfect reinterpretation of blues standards with a harder, fuzzier edge to them. (John Mayall with Clapton and then Green is a close second.)
