Peter Grant

Peter Grant is one of those figures whose influence dwarfs his fame. Managing Led Zeppelin from formation to breakup, he used his imposing presence and uncompromising negotiating style to secure deals that were genuinely revolutionary for the time. What earns my deepest respect is that he did not just enrich his own band; he is widely credited with raising pay and conditions for musicians across the industry. That is the rare manager who changes the system itself, not just one client's bank balance. He died in 1995, but the structural shift he forced in artists' bargaining power outlived him.
