In a new preview clip, the Led Zeppelin trio shared memories of the band’s first jam session, which took place below a record store on Gerrard Street in August 1968.
Page suggested they try Train Kept A-Rollin’ and Jones recalled: “The room just exploded. I’d never heard anything like it.” The bassist said of Plant’s high-pitched vocal: “Screaming maniac with this fantastic voice, fantastic range. It was like, ‘What are you doing up there? You’ll hurt yourself man.’”

Meanwhile, Plant himself confessed: “It was devastating. Because it seemed like that had been like what I’d been waiting for.” Additionally, an archive interview recording of Bonham before his death in 1980 saw the drummer admit he was feeling “pretty shy” on that fateful day.
Becoming Led Zeppelin is exclusively in IMAX on February 5 and 6 and in cinemas everywhere from February 7.
