I played in Hiroshima on the first Led Zeppelin tour of Japan, the concert was to be a benefit for the victims. The mayor presented city medals and a letter of appreciation to the band and manager Peter Grant. It made me think long and hard about the concept of war and its concentrated horror.

The music featured on my captured film is ‘Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima’ by Krzysztof Penderecki 1960.
