LED ZEPPELIN 'WORKING ON NEW MATERIAL', DRUMMER REVEALS

A record-breaking show may not have been the last fans will hear of Led Zeppelin after it emerged that they are working on new material.

The 70s rock legends reformed for a one-off concert at London's O2 Arena last December in honour of Atlantic Records founder Ahmet Ertegun but rumours of a full-scale reunion have been routinely denied.

But according to drummer Jason Bonham - whose late father John was the band's original drummer - he, guitarist Jimmy Page and bass player John Paul Jones have been experimenting with new material.

He told Detroit radio station 94.7 WCSX that creating original material had been "on the cards" since the eagerly-awaited concert at the O2.

"I've been working with Jimmy and John Paul and trying [out] some new material," Bonham revealed.

"I don't know what it will be, but it will be something. At the moment, all I know is I have the great pleasure to go and jam with the two guys and start work on some material.

"When I get there [in the studio] I never ask any questions. If I get a phone call to go and play, I enjoy every moment of it.

"Whatever it ends up as, to ever get a chance to jam with two people like that, it is a phenomenal thing for me. It's my life. It's what I've dreamed about doing."

He continued: "[The] possibility of doing something [like an album] is on the cards. I really felt it was on the cards from the moment we walked offstage at the O2.

"Lots of politics [would need to] get ironed out [before an album could be made]."

Singer Robert Plant has spent much of the year since the O2 show touring with Alison Krauss and has not yet been involved in any Led Zeppelin recording sessions, Bonham confirmed.
