on November 6th, 1980 at 6:38 pm1980 – Led Zeppelin meet on the island of Jersey to discuss their future following John Bonham’s death. Peter Grant remembers, “What happened was the three of them – Jimmy, Robert, and Jonesy – went over to Jersey in the Channel Islands to have a discussion of what they were going to do in the future. I had never raised the subject with them. When they came back, we arranged to rent a suite at the Savoy in London and we had afternoon tea, just the four of us. They looked at me and said, ‘What do you think, Gee?’ And I said I couldn’t see them carrying on as it was, because it couldn’t be the same. It was a very emotional moment. They all said, ‘Thank God you’ve said that, because that’s what we thought while we were away.’”
