Led Zeppelin complete their third album and embark on a North American tour in the summer of 1970 ahead of the project's release in the latest episode of the band's ongoing 50th anniversary video series. Kicking off in Hampton, VA on August 10, the band play a 7-week series of dates to rave reviews, wrapping up in mid-September with two sold-out performances on the same day at New York's Madison Square Garden. On October 5, the group release "Led Zeppelin III" and it debuts atop the UK charts while entering the US Billboard 200 at No. 3 after selling 750,000 copies in its first week and going to No. 1 the following week. The same month saw the band recognized for hitting US Gold status for US sales of more than a million copies of their 1969 single, "Whole Lotta Love", while also being honored for European sales of a million copies of "Led Zeppelin II."
In November, the UK rockers release the only single from their third record - "Immigrant Song"

I sit looking round
I look at my face in the mirror
I know I'm worth nothing
without you
in life one and one don't make two
one and one make one
I look at my face in the mirror
I know I'm worth nothing
without you
in life one and one don't make two
one and one make one

Happy Thanksgiving DJ's ! ... hope we don't see the Covid increase Canadians saw after their day of thanks, but likely our spreader will be super - it's what we do. Speaking of, One of Neil Peart's early Slingerland drum sets is going up for auction. The bass heads have the script from the 3rd lp Caress of Steel.
The original drum set used by Neil Peart during his early years with Rush is now available for purchase via an online auction by Bonhams in Los Angeles.
Offered as part of a Music Memoribalia event that runs from November 23 to December 9, Peart used the Slingerland drum kit with Rush between 1974-77. The package features a pair of bass drums with chrome wrap including the original head; blue resonant heads each with large silver Rush logo and "Neil" on one and "Peart" on the other (originals and additional replicas), and includes a 14-inch Tom Tom with chrome wrap and with original head signed by Peart. According to Bonhams, the drummer purchased the set in late July/early August 1974 from Long & McQuade in Toronto, ON and used it for three years before placing it in storage in 1977; the package later became one of three drum kit's donated by Peart for Modern Drummer Magazine's "Neil Peart Drumset Giveaway" introduced in their March 1987 issue. The set was awarded to New York drummer Mark Feldman in the October 1987 issue and comes with a letter signed by Peart informing Feldman that he was a contest winner and commenting on his submission; it was eventually sold by Feldman to the present owner.
Lakeside Park is about the same-titled park in Port Dalhousie, St. Catharines, Ontario, where Peart grew up and worked during the summer as a teenager.
