On this Day in 1980, Led Zeppelin Calls it Quits

On this day in 1980 (December 4th), Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Paul Jones announce that they've decided not to continue as Led Zeppelin in the wake of drummer John Bonham's death on September 25th, 1980.

One of Led Zeppelin's biggest hits is "Stairway to Heaven", released in 1971 on the LP Led Zeppelin IV. The song was never released as a single, it was however, the most requested song on FM radio throughout the 1970's.
