  1. Speaking of Sirius and Howard- he did a "tribute" to Bonzo Bonham earlier this week- talked about how he was the best and went on to show what he could do by comparing the earlier version of Levee to the official version. Then got in an argument about whether Peart was better than Bohnam- so on and so forth. They decided to settle it by having Lars Ulrich on the next day to make the official call. You can guess what the result was. Interesting stuff, especially for drummers.
  2. Intriguing- LZ is mentioned in this article: http://screamermagazine.com/interviews/greta-van-fleet-like-everything-nothing-youve-heard/
  3. Would like to see what TTB would be like with John Mayer- ala Derek & the Dominoes?
  4. Funny- I was familiar with later Genesis and solo stuff, but then I found out what he was doing on the drums in the Seventies with older Genesis and Brand X- wow.
  5. Didn't see this posted anywhere (sorry if a repost)- not sure what to make of it? https://www.yahoo.com/music/phil-collins-plans-new-album-comeback-tour-165959275.html Last paragraph: Collins said he has convened a band that includes drummer Jason Bonham, the son of Led Zeppelin’s late John Bonham.
  6. Yeah- Peart is another good question- as a drummer, I'd have a million. Hell, I'd never heard the man speak until the LZ DVD came out (I think that's where I first heard it). The book by his brother Mick is another good one (mentioned in other threads)...
  7. I read that in the book LZ-'75: The Lost Chronicles of Led Zeppelin's 1975 American Tour (chapter 24), and you're right- Mind Transplant was the other album- turns out he was actually playing along to them at 3am in his Riot House hotel room- hilarious.
  8. Alphonse Mouzon/Funky Snakefoot was the specific album I've read about him playing very loud in hotels. I've also read they used to listen to Little Feat at soundchecks, so maybe Richie Hayward was on his list (?)
  9. While I was familiar with him, I wasn't too interested until I happened upon Live at the Beacon which public TV was running. What really caught my attention wasn't really a blues tune- it's called "Mountain Time" with a really cool intro and outro. His bass player (since 2005 I guess), Carmine Rojas, has a hell of a resume as well. Anywho, check out Mountain Time- the guy can sing and play!
  10. I haven't been as big a fan of the post 70's stuff either, but I still appreciate him- the Crossroads DVD's are great (as is his biography) and he continues to turn me on to new acts. BTW, his place (very nice) in central Ohio is only about 5 miles from my place (I saw one of his classic Ford's in his driveway the day of one of the Columbus shows a couple years ago- turns out he drove that one to the gig!)- also saw him at a pumpkin patch with his family and enjoyed a chili dog from one table away (never approached him out of respect)- I was verklempt for weeks...
  11. Cool you posted that! I had this one on cassette tape and would dig it out and fast forward to that solo (from Thank You) often. GOOD STUFF
