Short story:

Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham play together for the first time when they rehearse, as The New Yardbirds, at a studio in Gerrard Street, London, England, UK, Europe. During the rehearsal, they play mostly blues covers, including The Train Kept A-Rollin' and Smokestack Lightning, but also a version of I'm Confused, which will re-surface as Dazed And Confused. A month or so later, they will begin using the name Led Zeppelin.
