"<span style=""font-size: small;"">Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin and CBS' Late Show host David Letterman swapped one-liners last night during the band's very rare joint appearance on late-night television. Early in the interview, Letterman asked his fellow Kennedy Center Honorees if they'd ever received a comparable award in the UK and all three in unison simply said ""No!"" Laughs ensured, and later Letterman asked the band about the influence Buddy Guy (another freshly minted Kennedy Center Honoree) and other bluesmen had on Led Zeppelin's sound. Page said Guy, Sonny Boy Williamson, Muddy Waters and other legendary bluesman had a huge influence on his and Jeff Beck's playing. Meanwhile, Plant added Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochraneand Elvis Presley's names into the early influence conversation, recalling the one time the band met ""The King,"" saying, ""Elvis had a lot of chicks."" Letterman immediately quipped, ""That's something you all had in common."" Finally, Letterman expressed how cool it was to have been able to hang out and get to know the three of them as part of the entire Kennedy Center Honors celebration, and jokingly added, ""I feel like I ought to be in the band, don't you think?"" A deadpan Jones quickly replied, ""No!"" See some of the interview <a href=""http://www.cbs.com/shows/late_show/video/2312303684/david-letterman-led-zeppelin-s-viking-sex-music"">here</a>.</span>"
