Unheard John Bonham Audio Features in Trailer for Authorized Documentary, ‘Becoming Led Zeppelin’


The long-awaited documentary arrives on Feb. 7.

Titled Becoming Led Zeppelin, the documentary has been in the works for some years, with director Bernard MacMahon helming the project following the success of his 2017 exploration into U.S. roots music, American Epic. Featuring the participation of the three surviving members – singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page, and bassist John Paul Jones – the project was taken to Cannes in 2019, at which point it was noted as being in the post-production phase. Such meticulous attention to sound detail is vital for a project of this caliber, which follows the group – including late drummer John Bonham – as they rise up through the British music scene in the 1960s playing in small clubs.
