At the end of November 2012, Low released a short video trailer for their forthcoming tenth full album, “The Invisible Way”.

Led Zeppelin are in talks to stream their backcatalogue online. The band are looking at giving at various music services including Spotify, Rdio and Rhapsody the right to put their music online, reports The New York Times.

The band's sax player Bobby Keys claims to have caused the incident in his new autobiography Every Day Is Saturday Night.

“The one thing that saved Mick at this point was Dylan,” Mick Ronson’s wife, Suzi, recalls in a terrific feature on her late husband by Garry Mulholland in the new issue of Uncut. She was talking about the shambles Mick’s career had become after he was dumped by David Bowie and his first two solo albums, Slaughter On 10th Avenue and Play Don’t Worry, had both flopped.
