sixpense Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I bought that Stills album the day it was released because Jimmy was on it. Back at that time (like today) I was looking for ANY music by Jimmy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knebby Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Yes it is I have Stephen Stills and the song "Right by you"... Is it not the album he's talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knebby Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Ah I see what you mean - in that he is talking about the album but the song is playing - I had only seen the facebook link, not looked at the page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstork Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Roy Harper and Jimmy Page - Short And Sweet - Live 1984 That is just fantastic. I for one really enjoyed the sound and style he cultivated with the b bender Tele in the 80's, just great emotional playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jabe Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 That is just fantastic. I for one really enjoyed the sound and style he cultivated with the b bender Tele in the 80's, just great emotional playing. Great song indeed. I remember it from an old David Gilmour album, who had a hand in its composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecube Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Great song indeed. I remember it from an old David Gilmour album, who had a hand in its composition. I'm sure this is known but I'll write it anyway: The song "20th century man", partly written by David Gilmour, from Harper's "Jugula" album, is the same guitar riff for the song "White city fighting", also partly written by David Gilmour, from Pete Townsend's "White city" album. There's a lot of classic rock in-breeding in there: Jimmy Page playing a David Gilmour riff on a Roy Harper album which coincidentally also finds its way on a Pete Townsend album...

ledzepfilm Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 On this day… 31 Jul 1967The Yardbirds play The Kerrisdale Arena, Vancouver After another strenuous and frustrating episode at the Canadian border, we had come from San Francisco to Vancouver to play a psychedelic bonanza at the Kerrisdale Arena on this day and at the Garden Auditorum on the 1st. At this time, the Yardbirds album 'Little Games' had been released for about a week. The music featured here is the home demo on 12-string acoustic guitar and auto-harp of 'Only The Black Rose' from the 'Little Games' album. I never saw the second picture on the website....

ledzepfilm Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 .01 Aug 1979 Led Zeppelin soundcheck for Knebworth Led Zeppelin did a soundcheck for the upcoming concerts over the weekends of the 4th and 11th of August 1979 at Knebworth, England. During the soundcheck, as we were playing 'Trampled Under Foot', I turned around to see John Bonham's son, 13 year old Jason, playing on his father's kit. This was probably the first time I played with Jason and was certainly not the last! John had gone out the front to hear to hear how his kit sounded through the Knebworth-sized PA.

FireOpal Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 What a fascinating look at JP's former studio - thanks, Stairway. Correct me if I'm wrong but this was previously owned by the great Gus Dudgeon, R.I.P. The soundboard looks very complicated. The glass chandelier is a surprising feature, one doesn't usually see that in a studio. UPDATE: That soundboard has been restored and is now at Thames Valley University: http://www.audiocourses.com/article-print-476.html Stuart Epps now owns The Sol. In this 2009 interview, he speaks about working w/ JP: "Gus sold it to Jimmy Page in 1980 and then Jimmy wanted to keep me on at the studio. I wasn’t a big Zeppelin fan, I mean, I obviously liked them and I knew all about them. Jimmy was quite a strange person; I didn’t actually meet him for three months when I was working with him. It’s like working for Howard Hughes a bit, you know, he really was eccentric and a very strange guy, but I became his engineer and we recorded, we mixed, the last Zeppelin album. Then, because of his connection with heavy rock, I then started producing artists for Atlantic Records, which were Twisted Sister, Vandenberg ... that was all a very good period as well."

Anyone knows where I can find the recording that was featured on that day of the home demo of "Only the black rose" (with autoharp and 12 string guitar)?
