Drove 8 hrs to Ohio listening to Led Zeppelin (albums, live, solo) all the way there. Then listened to Led Zeppelin (etc.) all the way back. Fantastic drive.
Then the missus caught me "listening to music in my head" (Baptists don't dance) as I'm putting away the dishes we put in the dishwasher before we left. Missus: "You're 'listening' to Led Zeppelin in your head, aren't you?" ME: "..."
Still listening to Led Zeppelin. One goes through cycles, and a going thru a LZ one is always great.
Rock has its four Gospels: Beatles, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, & The Who. Bob Dylan would be Paul.
I've noted before that I bought The Complete Studio Recordings (and a mess of Pink Floyd) with my high school graduation. 
My next door neighbors were teenagers in the 1970s and introduced me to many great groups (LZ, The Who, Yes, Jethro Tull, ELP, & Pink Floyd - Yes, I said at the time, "Which ones Pink?" It took me another year to realize the depth of their laughter.
The missus was a huge fan of David Bowie (who I only began to listen to in well into college). Her favorite album is London Town by Wings, which became a top ten favorite of mine years later. Thought: It be nice if the cherubim "guarding" Yahweh's throne are McCartney & Laine.
Anyway, I was thinking this weekend how I became aware of LZ. Not from my neighbors as I initially recalled. And not waking up the middle of the night on Xmas Eve in my grandmother's house (1993) where she's watching an advertisement for "The Complete Studio Recordings" ...
Actually, it happened in the late 1980s. After church on Sunday evening, The Song Remains the Same film came on TV. 😳
