During It Might Get Loud, the joy on his face when playing the Rumble record was so genuine and honest and wonderful to see.

Well, I'll take a chance. Check out Rosetta West, Deeper Than Magic on the Rosetta West Bandcamp release "Labyrinth." Heavily Zep influenced. Zeppelin is my religion.

Just asking. Haven't been back in a long while

A million thanks Sue. The link was very helpful, and it led me to David Allen (who I now see has posted on this forum). What an amazing picture that is. Anyway - hope you're doing well.

Thanks Sue - it's been a long time since I posted here, but I always appreciated your insights. Any idea where I can get my hands on a quality print of this? You may remember that I'm a '77 fanatic, and this is the image that I've been waiting to come across - it really speaks to me, in terms of the magic of the '77 tour.

Can anyone tell me more about the '77 pic above? Never seen it before - I'd love to get a poster of that.

"Ten Years Gone" - June 25, 1977. L.A. Forum. Jimmy is amazing on this version.

This recording (and the story behind it) was a big thrill for me to discover when I first joined here. It's still awesome. Thanks to everybody involved for making it available and sounding so good.

Hey, LTT, I'll give it another listen. Eddie is my favorite show of all time, but it's been while (I tend to save it for special occasions now, such is my reverence). Thanks for the motivation.

Don't get cynical - there's no such thing as too much Sue! Quick...somebody say something UNPREDICTABLE!!! To be honest, it would be hard NOT to mention the O2 version...but I already did my part with the Page Plant selection, didn't I?

Sorry if I'm straying a little here, but I have to mention the Page/Plant No Quarter version of Kashmir. What an absolutely brilliant, magical performance!

For those who like the funk-rock side of the Stones, check this mix some guy on youtube made of dance pt. 1 and dance pt. 2. I think it sounds awesome.

I saw Rob twice in '88 (I'm thinking there might be a third time, but I'm not sure). A highlight of the first show in May was his performance of In The Evening, which blew my mind. There was a very cool psychedelic projection behind him for that song...kind of a rich swirling purple. I also remember that he did a neat little trick during that show - he was playing another Zep tune that featured harmonica (Black Country Woman?) and he didn't have a harp in his hand when the song started. When it got time to blow the harp, he flipped his hand and it seemed to appear of nowhere, right in time for him to play. I was in a state of mind which made that seem VERY impressive. I had good seats and eagle eyes...who knows, maybe it was magic. The second time was in the winter, I believe, and the highlight was In The Light. I don't think he did the whole song, but it was enough to really work for me. Immigrant song from that show was great, too, with a cool video projection to go with it. Great times. 1988 was a great year.

^^^ That's right - Record Convention! I was a little off yesterday. I'm not surprised that the traditional Record Convention is fading, but you might want to try a Guitar Show if they come around. Same kind of set up basically - huge room in a hotel or something similar...various vendors at tables with like, 10,000 guitars...but the ones I've gone to always seem to have a table or two where guys are selling bootlegs. It seems vaguely out of place, but I'm always happy to see them. Anyway, these guitar shows are alive and kickin' on a national level. And I seem to remember you're from New Orleans or around there. I'm sure they have them there.

I don't know about favorite, but I always think of the one on the "Heart Attack" bootleg. Anyone remember that one? It was a 1973 performance, but I was never totally sure where the D&C was from, because I think there was a mix of performances from Texas and Bradford. Anyway, I was listening to that in a nice "herbal" state of mind...and man, it just transported me in the most trippy way. I'll never forget that.
