  1. It could be a thing, and I’m not joking. It wouldn’t surprise me if we get reports of the dragon and poppy suits etc. autographed obviously, to enhance the purchase.
  2. At £50000 I can’t see that many, or even any of these guitars will ever be played, which is a shame. There’ll be kept well out of harm or even in some millionaire collector’s vault. Fair play to any very wealthy fans who can afford to indulge themselves, if they can why not? And the same for Jimmy too. I wonder if Dan Electro will be his next contact now that he’s done his most famous guitars, to complete the set? there was a phrase that someone on the old forum wrote about Jimmy that still tickles me “he’s wanking over his own past”.
  3. It won’t be long until he sells his soul. It’ll be autographed obviously
  4. “Only” £40 for a tee shirt! Maybe he thinks we’re all as wealthy as him. What a swizz. I find it quite tawdry that he’s resorted to flogging his own image
  5. But conspiracy theorists will say Davies and Page only deny it to cover up the truth!
  6. Why did Planty wear the same shirt every night on this tour?
  7. Nah, I can’t see Bonham could have persuaded Plant to carry on without JPJ. I think Plant was about ready to leave and any such reason would have been enough.
  8. I’m not aware of underlying issues between Plant and JPJ during the life of the band. It’s obvious he was closer to Bonham and Page but it seems to me that he had the biggest issue with Page in the end. First described during the Presence sessions in 75, then the very heavy drug use, poor playing and self indulgence of 77, not attending Karac’s funeral,, and absence during the ITTOD sessions etc.
  9. I sometimes wonder why he doesn’t just open up a shop to sell his autographed wares. At least the amps and guitars are a step up from polo shirts and mugs
  10. Then, not think. That’s how it sounds on the album and also on the bootlegs
  11. Yep, my tape has a lot of drop outs in Kashmir too
  12. Ah sorry. I got mixed up with the eleven years gone quip being on my destroyer tape. I listened to the Copenhagen 79 show in the nights before and blurred the two
  13. I recently dug out my cassette bootlegs out of the attic, that I acquired in in the 80s. I have just one of two tapes tiled Destroyer but I don’t know which of the two night they played in Cleveland the only clues I can give you are two plantations.. before BYAS he mentions JPJ buying the stand up bass for £18 (I think), and before TYG in the delay getting the stage set he says “soon to be named eleven years gone” any ideas anyone? And of the two nights they played, which is regarded as the better? thanks all
  14. I enjoyed this and I’m going to watch the next part on the 98 tour. There’s no doubt that by the end of this 95/95 tour, and especially in ‘98, Jimmy had really got his feel back on a consistent level and played some magical moments unseen, in my opinion, for twenty years or more Like the narrator, I wasn’t crazy on Michael Lee either. His enthusiasm was great but I just didn’t dig his sound. But, hey ho, it doesn’t matter, Page and Plant were doing some great gigs. I’m glad I saw them in this phase: three times in ‘95 and twice in ‘98, including Glastonbury and Reading festivals. when my mate got married in the early 00s, he said, “I haven’t been this happy since Jimmy played Heartbreaker at Reading”
