I was a huge fan of it being in high school 72-76 ....the music was spot on but no Zep...ive read a huge cut of the movies budget like 100k went to Aerosmith just for one song...Page wanted to use their music in the movie but Plant stopped it....Alice Cooper "use anything you want for free....It may help us turn on some new gen to our music..."

Alice Cooper is an awesome Rock Star.

Thanks! Well, there's my answer, one degree removed from the source. Yeah, when I was seventeen, going into my senior year, I couldn't have cared less about a thirteen-year-old.
