Because you obviously don't know how to operate the Poll function on this board. As for the last choice in the poll did you actually intend for that to be two separate choices because "None All" doesn't make a lick of sense. In the future, I suggest using the "Preview Post" feature, that way you can work the kinks out before actually making a post.

It was a close one between White Summer and No Quarter but White Summer just tops it for me, I just find myself motionless watching him play that guitar. Moby Dick though is just an awesome performance.

No Quarter, definitely No Quarter. Some of my favorite No Quarter jams:

2-16-75
June 23 1977
August 11 1979
Earls Court May 24
Vancouver 3 19 75


:piano:

I expected White Summer to win it, in all honesty I have heard many of the No Quarter compositions and just find them long-winded and tedious.

White Summer just goes on and on and on....all fine & dandy in 1969 when you could get away with - nay, were expected to play - that kind of hippy stuff. But what's it doing in the 77-80 setlists? Were people still wearing beads and kaftans then, I don't think so.

Being a piano afficionado I'd have to say No Quarter.

Calm down, you were able to understand what it said and that's all that matters

All three solos are amazing, but my favourite of these is White Summer.

I like em all however, Jimmy should have dropped White Summer and used Brom-Y-Aur instead 77'-80'. It's much shorter, only 2.5 min, and IMO a much better composition. He gets more across in that brief 2.5 min than he does in 10 min of WS/BMS and it is a 100% original composition.

The name reminds me of an annoying commercial where they same the same thing 3 or 4 times fast to drill it in your head. lol

I voted No Quarter. I feel like mainly Page got to show his stuff in White Summer and Bonzo in Moby Dick but in No Quarter Jones played great and Page also created so great guitar parts especially for the longer live versions.

I didn't vote. I love 'White Summer' simply because I love any song played with the Danelectro. But, I also love the rhythm of 'Moby Dick'. I also love JPJ's solo's. The light really shines on him in "No Quarter'. Fabulous songs I must say, it's hard to choose which is why I'm not.
