The Savoy Hotel in London played host to the 1970 Melody Maker Poll Awards, where Led Zeppelin displaced the Beatles in the most popular group category. (The first time the Beatles had not been ranked #1 in eight years). Robert Plant was also voted best male vocalist.
John Bonham and Robert Plant make a rare appearance on TV, interviewed for BBC’s Nationwide.
Melody Maker stopped publication in December, 2000 after seventy-three years.
