His name was on the lips of all musos from the release of that album and for the next two years.⁣ I had heard him sing a couple of songs at a distance on the Other Stage at Glastonbury, where Page and Plant were headlining: you could feel him, it was extraordinary. I had listened intently to ’Grace’ whilst I was on tour and made a point to see him at the Palais Theatre in Melbourne on this day in 1996.“ – Jimmy Page, from his official Instagram account: “The Best Thing I’ve Heard All Year“ - 75 stars of stage and screen pop round to hog the stereo | MOJO Issue 38 / January 1997. Jimmy Page appears on the magazine cover, holding up a copy of Grace by Jeff Buckley: (Cameron Crowe, asked about his inclusion of Led Zeppelin songs in his film, Almost Famous): How’d you secure the rights to the music? They took us across the street to a wine bar. They said, “Well, ‘Stairway to Heaven,’ we gotta say no to, ’cause it’s just too much. We just don’t do anything with ‘Stairway to Heaven.’” We’re like, “Whomp, whomp, whomp.” And Page goes, “But I would like to give you an extra song that’s more of an acoustic busking vibe. We’ll give that to you free.” He replaced “Stairway to Heaven” with “Bron-Yr-Aur.” He gave that to us for free, just to have that texture in the movie, which was amazing. And we ran through the streets afterward. The rest of that meeting was spent talking about how much we all loved Jeff Buckley. Officially the coolest night ever, or the un-coolest night ever. I don’t know. That was a huge kind of buoy to swim to, because without Led Zeppelin, it’s just not the same movie. – Cameron Crowe on the 20th Anniversary of ‘Almost Famous’: ‘It’s Never Been as Popular as It Is Now’ | Rolling Stone article by Angie Martoccio, August 20, 2020: #JeffBuckley #RobertPlant #LedZeppelin #JimmyPage #JohnPaulJones #JohnBonham #FreddieMercury
