"I listened to 'Lez Zep' as the sun went down and the light of my camp fire became the focus. What a programme! The music, the women, the perspectives of father and daughter: it was a wonderful examination of the music and the difference between tribute and interpretation, and I'm not even a Zep fan!" listener comment
