London, Dec 2 - Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page was so traumatised after drummer John Bonham's death that he refused to reunite with the band.

The legendary rock group split after the drummer's death almost 32 years ago and Page was too shocked to ever return, reported contactmusic.com.

'After John Bonham's death I spent 15 years not even wanting to think about Led Zeppelin. But I also have difficulty thinking it's all over. Now at least one concert is planned and I'm incredibly happy about that,' he said.

It was finally the music that eventually convinced him to reunite with his bandmates for a comeback concert last week.

'If I listen to our records from that time now, I think, 'My God, we were incredibly good!' We really blew everyone else off stage and in that way created a separate status for ourselves in the music world,' he added.
