He was only 66, that's too damn young. Very sad news. RIP

Fine tunes Kiwi

There's a new Traffic thread.........this seems appropriate.

Alvin Lee does his best John Lee Hooker imitation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPIfGucP-9A

This was actually a hit on the radio decades ago. Today it would be marginalized as "Christian Pop".

Freakin' awesome

I always wondered if Dusty Hill was born with a full beard?

My favorite Cure album "Disintegration" on 180 gram vinyl from Amazon.....

According to this: "copies of Led III contained the phrase The "Do what thou wilt/so mote be it" was a famous quote from a hero of Page, Aleister Crowley. It was only inscribed in the run-off areas of early pressings of the album." http://en.allexperts.com/q/Led-Zeppelin-501/2010/8/LZ-matrix.htm Sadly, my original LP is long gone. I vaguely recall it had some bizarre thing written on the run off and I'll bet that was it.

I can't help but wonder how many loyal Fox News viewers thought this was.............real. lol

Kiwi, I always enjoy your "listening to" posts a lot. You always seem to be listening to the most obscure old stuff which I think is pretty epic. Keep 'em coming.

That's The Way

Not too bad for a "boy band" I'd say.

I am very old, I bought that single way back then. Pretty good album too.

Strider, just tremendous...................seriously a great read.

Counting down the days until The Walking Dead starts again.

Great show thanks for the link. If I didn't know that was Nick Lowe I would have never recognized him. Amazing.

What a kooky kooky groovy scene............ Man talk about a time capsule, terrific photos.

Mel Schacter was a remarkable bass player, very very melodic. He doesn't get the credit today that he deserves.

http://www.stevehoffman.tv/forums/archive/index.php/t-211803-p-4.html Somebody posted about a recollection by Mark Farner of Grand Fund Railroad...........I don't know if this is the specific instance but truth be told, if I was in that audience I'd have booed too. 'Here's Mark Farner's account below. Peter Grant did pretty much the same thing at the Bath Festival in 1970 (on a band called The Flock) so that Zep could go on as the sun was setting. ------------------------------- What happened -- that story arose from an incident. We opened for Led Zeppelin at Olympia in Detroit. And the crowd was going nuts. We just broke into "Inside Looking Out" and the whole audience just (cheered) and at that point, Led Zeppelin's manager, Peter Grant, jerked the power on us. He shut the whole PA system down ... So then Terry (Knight, Grand Funk Railroad's manager at the time) comes out, they turn a microphone on, he says ... "Grand Funk is going to have to leave the stage." And the audience went boo. And Zeppelin waited an hour and a half before they went on, after we went off ... We were supposed to be on for a tour, but that was the only night we got to open for them ...

Brother Neil speaks the truth............
