Over ten years after WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH, Mick Wall's seminal biography of the band, comes this major and extensively researched revision, which provides an unflinching look at life inside one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time, and presents the definitive, final word on Led Zeppelin.

They were 'the last great band of the sixties; the first great band of the seventies'; they rose, somewhat unpromisingly, from the ashes of the Yardbirds to become one of the biggest-selling rock bands of all time. Mick Wall, respected rock writer and former confidant of both Page and Plant, unflinchingly tells the story of the band that wrote the rulebook for on-the-road excess - and eventually paid the price for it, with disaster, drug addiction and death.

WHEN GIANTS WALKED THE EARTH reveals for the first time the true extent of band leader Jimmy Page's longstanding interest in the occult, and goes behind the scenes to expose the truth behind their much-hyped yet spectacularly contrived comeback at London's O2 arena in 2007, and how Jimmy Page plans to bring the band back permanently - if only his former protege, now part-time nemesis, Robert Plant will allow him to. Wall also recounts, in a series of flashbacks, the life stories of the five individuals that made the dream of Led Zeppelin into an even more incredible and hard-to-swallow reality: Page, Plant, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, and their infamous manager, Peter Grant.

Made it through the first season
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
Product value compared to name brands not to bad so for. Not sure I'd use it for contract work, but great for homeowner use. Engine seems to have an odd burning smell, but performs good (yes I have the correct oil/gas mix ratio which is 50:1). This is very similar to the Stihl models, aluminum shaft tubing on the attachments appear to be slightly thinner than Stihl, but they perform fine. So far it's been a great value for all the attachments you get in the kit. Definitely like the angle capability of the hedge trimmer and ease of changing out the attachments. Chain saw blade did dull fairly quick, but expected that based on it's size. Jury still out on longevity.

Edger Does Not Fit The 52CC Trimmer
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
Might be a great cutter head?? I purchased the 52cc trimmer and edger as a package, however the edger does not fit the trimmer??? Therefore, it is useless... Will see if it fits my 25cc trimmer and maybe change the review... They should tell people in the description that their edger will not work with the 52cc trimmer....

Cut edges like a pro
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
Better, much better than the OEM yellow and black brand. This has an all metal guard and the blade does not bind when it comes into contact with concrete. I have used it all summer for edging two commercial properties and my own lawn, it’s still turning and cutting with ease. Being all metal adds weight but the trade off over fragile plastic is worth the durability.

OK for light duty use only
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
Not very strong or robust. Does fit my power head properly. Only recommend it for occasional, light duty use.
