V nedavnem intervijuju je Jimmy Page vprašanje o morebitnem ponovnem reunionu Led Zeppelin zavrnil z besedami, da ‘zelo močno dvomi, da bo legendarna zasedba v prihodnosti še aktivna’.

»You’ve just got to face facts. We’ve gone past the 10th anniversary of the O2 show, where we managed to do one serious concert. That’s the only thing that we’ve done for such a long time, so I very much doubt we’ll do anything else. I really think the time has gone.”

Led Zeppelin so nazadnje izvedli skupni nastop več kot deset let nazaj, decembra 2007 v londonski O2 Areni. Koncert je bil posnet in izdan 2012 na CD in DVD verziji ‘Celebration Day’. Obeležil je prvi skupni nastop Pagea, Roberta Planta in Paula Jonesa po smrti Johna Bonhama leta 1980.

V istem intervijuju je Page napovedal tudi izdajo še enega Led Zeppelin Live albuma, ki je napovedan za drugo polovico 2018.

“I can’t give the game away, but there’s a recording that’s another multi-track that we’ll release. It’s so different to all the other things that are out there. It’s another view compared to ‘How The West Was Won’ or ‘The Song Remains The Same’. I’m looking forward to people hearing that. There’s a lot of stuff to come out, a number of releases. I’d like to say that they’ll be coming out over the next 10 years. There’s more to come for sure.”

Kljub temu, da skupino že veliko časa spodbujajo k vsaj še eni seriji koncertov, Plant ostaja odločen in zvest svoji novi bluesovski usmeritvi.

“It’s tough enough repeating yourself with something that’s a year old, never mind 49 years old. I’ve got to keep moving.”
