Led Zeppelin Takes Flight

Led Zeppelin Takes Flight: ‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’ in Theaters Now

I was lucky to win tickets to an advance screening of “Becoming Led Zeppelin” at the event center at 102.9 WMGK last week. Hosted by Tony Harris, it was the first event that the station presented in the intimate space.

The two-hour documentary, directed by Bernard MacMahon, chronicles the band’s origins and focuses primarily on the period from ’68 to’70.

Featuring old family photos of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham; lots of groovy live performance footage, some of which has never been seen; new interviews with the remaining members; and a never-before-heard interview with Jon Bonham, the film provides a musical and cultural backstory on the period and re-counts the formation of one of rock ‘n’ roll’s most influential bands.

As the surviving band members tell it, each childhood memory and story became the building blocks of Led Zeppelin’s epic story.

You’ll hear first-hand accounts of the musical beginnings of session musicians Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, the influence of all the R&B coming out of the U.S. that inspired Robert Plant, and the unheard John Bonham audio that visibly touches Plant, Page, and Paul Jones.

I won’t get into the specific concert footage or what is revealed in the storytelling, but I’ll tell you that it was very difficult for me not to sing along and play air guitar. It was a quiet movie screening, after all.

The film is in theaters now.  I thoroughly enjoyed it and I recommend it.  It’s a must-see for Zep fans.

VINYL REVIVAL MOVIE NIGHT featuring “Heart of the Beat” with David Uosikkinen

Vinyl Revival is partnering with Jamey’s House of Music to bring a Movie Night to Lansdowne!

Curated by Andrea DiFabio, head over to Jamey’s, 32 S. Lansdowne Avenue, Lansdowne, Pa.,
on each fifth Thursday of the month to enjoy an independent film screening.

The inaugural event, on Thursday, January 30th, 2025, at 8 p.m. (doors at 6 p.m.) features the feature-length documentary “Heart of the Beat” by director Jill R. Frechie.

Produced by John Ricciutti, and in association with Main Line Television, “Heart of the Beat,” tells the story of Hooters’ drummer David Uosikkinen. David shares his life story, and the ups and downs and ins and outs of being a drummer with The Hooters and other projects for over 40 years. His upbeat and infectious personality resonates throughout the film as he tells the truth about his struggles of being an artist, an addict, and a musician. He reminds us that we are all human.

Frechie is a Telly Awards winner and Emmy nominated filmmaker. “Heart of the Beat” has won multiple awards including Best Shot in Philly Documentary at the 26th annual FirstGlance Film Festival Philadelphia in 2023.

Tickets for Movie Night with Vinyl Revival are $5 and can be purchased here and at the door.

Enjoy HAPPY HOUR from 6-7 p.m. (sponsored by the Lansdowne Business Professional Association), Asian inspired American dining delights by Chef Suyun Reilly, and drinks provided by Conshohocken Brewing Company for an additional fee before and during the event. There will be a $5 food/drink minimum per person.

The multi-award-winning Jamey’s features restaurant style seating in an intimate, acoustically first-rate listening room, with stage-front long communal tables and stage-side two-top tables.

They also feature the art and photography of musicians, or musically related art by artists who love music, in their “Little Gallery” with monthly exhibitions and artist openings.
