Send a textEpisode 216He was a giant of a man, both in size and in reputation. Peter Grant, the manager who turned Led Zeppelin into the biggest band on the planet, wasn’t cut from the same cloth as other music executives. Fiercely loyal, brutally protective, and unafraid of confrontation, he ripped up the old rules of the music business and wrote new ones that shifted power from the record labels to the artists. But behind the legend of smashed bootlegs, stormed offices, and backstage intimidation lies the story of a working-class Londoner who fought his way from nightclub bouncer to the most feared and influential manager in rock history.Support the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.com
