Miles Davis, arguably the best and most influential American musician of the 20th century, was known to be a major a-hole. Yet, I listen to no artists more than him and his dozens of "sons".

Pat died a few years back, so he can't tell his side of the story. Then, of course there were the exploits of Harvey Wienstien and Bill Cosby.

Mick Walls biography strongly suggests that tour manager Richard Cole (the primary and most repellent perpetrator by the sound of it, and possibly the instigator of the mudshark incident). From what I remember, Wall after his research points the finger at Cole and a few shady characters he brought on board, for creating the creepy and violent atmosphere that marred the band's later days and contributed to their downfall. I think in truth is it's more of a Richard Cole story, than a Zeppelin story. Think I'm right in in saying that Cole fabricated many stories in a cash-in book, which left both Plant and Page furious and feeling betrayed. Plant even remarked, "Farewell Ricardo... sadly no more tall tales...." when Cole died in 2021

And some of those things would be legally actionable today. By the way, if you're up for another such video how about one on the 'billboard incident' in the marketing campaign for the Stones's "Black and Blue" album -- including what Sir Jagger said when he was asked about it. That's another questionable moment in Rock history that would go down very differently today
