Zeppelins popularity didn`t skyrocket here until at least the release of the remasters box set in 1990.

Until then they were just another rock band.
I realise it may be hard to beleive for someone bought up in a country where you have radio stations dedicated to stairway. But the fact is Zeppelin were never that much of a big deal in the UK. You didn`t hear them , you didn`t see them. It wasn`t even until about 1990 that I was even aware of them.
