The planned North American tour was cancelled, and despite rumours that Cozy Powell , Carmine Appice , Barriemore Barlow , Simon Kirke , Ric Lee or Bev Bevan would join the group as his replacement, the remaining members decided to disband. A 4 December 1980 press statement stated that, “We wish it to be known that the loss of our dear friend, and the deep sense of undivided harmony felt by ourselves and our manager, have led us to decide that we could not continue as we were.” The statement was signed simply “Led Zeppelin”.
