    5 is very difficult... For some reason this thread sparked a memory from the summer of 1982... when the local rock station DJ was going off because he had the "new Robert Plant solo album in my hands and at 4:00 o'clock I'm going to play you not one, but TWO tracks from it." At four he told us the album was titled Pictures At Eleven and proceeded to play Burning Down One Side and Moonlight In Samosa...

     

    It was during Samosa that I knew Robert would be just fine on his own. It was a bittersweet moment... you know the guy is going to do well on his own... but you also are acknowledging the fact that Zeppelin really are over...

     

    Sorry... got a bit off on a different tangent... anyway... five songs from solo Plant that never fail to move me... no order in particular...

     

    Big Log... just perfect

     

    Moonlight In Samosa... ummm, just perfect... again...

     

    Come Into My Life... 1993 and still perfect...

     

    The Greatest Gift... do you sense a trend here?

     

    Great Spirit... ah yes... Great Spirit come... Great Spirit come...

     

     

    No no not off topic , THAT was a great story of a PLANT.  moment in time , your story took me RITE BACK to those first solo feelings i got too!

    GREAT STORY MAN, it moved me reminded me of me & an old high school friend , we connected cause he mentioned the solo release & i was like 

    “YEA MAN ITS GREAT , your the ONLYone i even heard mention it” then i think he rode over with it on his moped & we both knew rite then we were bros!! Not sure where he is today but hope he doin alrite! I reached out yrs ago & we hung & reminisced but then never heard from him again , such is life ...sad really, BUT we both got Plant & Zep in our blood!

    riden in my 70 BUICK GS , blowin the doors off most every hot rod out there & doin it with class wit ROBERT PLANT crankin out the windows !

    Same BAT station Same BAT channel bud! stop by!

    Yes, perhaps the best in his prime. I was just reading his 2020 interview in Rolling stone magazine. I think he still plays. He did give a short snippet of playing at the Play it Loud museum. Maybe he didn’t want to associate with that style, and that music. It was actually surprising that Clapton was on it really. When I read that 6 months ago or whatever it was, I remember thinking how odd it was that he participated, as well as Mr. Beck. But awesome for them. I have resigned myself to possibly never hearing him play again. I was lucky enough to get to see him 4 times. And of the 100’s of bootlegs I have, his 98 performances were some of the most inspired, and greatest playing of his career. He was on it. Just brilliant. Having said all of that, even though I’m not a huge fan of solo Ozzy, I appreciate him as a character, maybe even a treasure. It would have been cool to hear Jimmy on his album. We didn’t get that, I’m good with all that we have. Stacked up next to anyone else, I can’t think of anyone with a better body of work. For me there isn’t anyone who even comes close. Whether that is on albums, or live. Jimmy will always be the most creative, inventive, and studious player I’ve ever heard. When I hear people say he is sloppy it is laughable. He was a studio musician in perhaps the demanding time in history. He had to be more perfect and match fit. When he went out on his own, he took chances. And they were spectacular! Amazing!

     

     

    Well put! 👍🏼

  6. Ok ok , i give STP another chance , i tell u what , sex type thing & Vaseline are sO powerful & ? One other i forgot were unbelievably AWSOME SONGS !!!

    birthday death bed yea!  If thats what its officially called , sO great ! 

    Still i have doubts of the true creators , but those songs are actually sO amazing to me i think back off on shittin on them sO much! Lol  ill AIM ALL MY TURDS towards nickleback them , & blame u 😜

     Yea MASS respect to PRINCE! 

    I heard Plant even say some things in high regards of Prince!  😳!

    yea i agree with the era of music your referring to but i add alota big hair (need a new term , big hair is too disrespectful) bands ,  most of those bands & ANY  music in any era that has such POWER ! 

    & big hair had more than most eras !

    gosh not gonna try naming some ok i will real quick & only 1 quick song next to name

    Dio last in line

    Kiss All hells breaking loose

    skid row monkey business

    twisted sister the price

    ratt lack of comunication

    living color cult of personality

    def leopard , Tesla sO many more anyway sorry i prob went off track !

    ️hey  plant77 heres one u should go search & play from back then , I THINK EVERYONE FORGOT THESE GUYS   Although its nothing like your era  but  well maybe ..... ? Idk ? slipped under the radar , let me know how hard it rocked you!  

    BAND :Shooting Star

    It would have been great for Jimmy to guest on that album, especially with all the other greats. Ozzy is a legend and It wouldn't hurt Jimmy one bit to be on one of his records.  Would have to have been better than that crap he did with puff daddy.

    No doubt! & wouldn't it be great if Page realizes Angers so called curse on Jimmy (if it had any strength at all in the first place, doubt it) dissolved with Kenneth Anger when he died !

    & Jimmy was free to exercise his creativity (likely was there all along anyway) & dug deep & pulled of a read whopper of a riff ! & whoever the writing team Ozborne  utilizes did a good job with the rest of the song

    & it just smacked all the doubters & haters rite in the face ! 

    OMG ! I would find that a wonderfull thing , a perfect wave for Jimmy to ride out  & enjoy at this point in his career! 

    of all the Zep fans wants & wishes  a powerhouse of a  one last swan song he wouldnt be opposed to , if he found the rite riff then let several artists work in private & present their versions in secret & if it had enuf magic,  destroy the rest & publish the one with the

    Hammer of the Gods! 

    AMEN!! 

     

    Anything is possible if we pray !

    Nonsense, incorrect usage of the English language.

     I would seriously read though what you have written here. Go back to school you fuckwit

    You don't have to read threads that you are not interested in. This is what the brain and eyes are for, assuming you have a brain?

    Hey hey  RELAX fellow Zep brother i suppose your rite  i should just reply to what interests me ONLY. 

    However let me explain , then ask you some questions . I had just glanced  & noticed  all the odd threads  

    stay with me a sec

    👉🏼AND been annoyed with some changes , causing difficulty finding past threads re’ Zep  

    & some GREAT threads no longer OPEN to comment

    & some1 said was to streamline / eaiser to manage all the information this site generates.

    my point was  THEN  whats up with all the  additional  managing  of non zep related threads . I thought it was a valid question.

    -I DO have a couple college degrees however non of which are a

    Masters in Grammar

    like you may have so feel free.... “politely- like a grown up & respected member of the official site of such a high caliber band “

     re’ my miss use of the “english language” please advise.

    -ALSO Why so angry ? no need to curse at me & call me “Fuckwit”? (Whatever that is) .

    You dont see me calling you a “Grammar Nazi” do you 😅!

    BTW chillumppuffer  i like your site name , i think 🤔

     

  10. Well not that it wouldnt be GREAT if we could get ANYTHING new from jimmy , 

    in any shape or form , im kinda glad he didnt do it on an Ozzy album!  Dont get me wrong the 1st 2 ozzy solo albums have some of the best songs ever but Ozzy didnt have much to do with their creation! Bob Daisily wrote most of the words.

    Now id support Jimmy playing on a Bob  Daisily project. LETS just keep Jimmy outa the plastic scene ,  genuine leather the real thing !

    Try as I might I can’t stand Deep Purple. Of any era. Obviously a few talented musicians in the band. Not arguing that. But they have always seemed like a cover band playing cover music to me. Other than a handful of songs “ The Who “ do not do it for me either. 
     

    Best 3 bands Led Zeppelin, Stones, Prince, and if I’m going to put one band from my generation it is STP and tied with Layne Alice N Chains. And Janes Addiction. They were brilliant. So a few more than 3. 

    I’ll say this re’ your comment 

    PRINCE / good input , very nice u put him on this list, he certainly belongs on many lists !

    Deep Purple/ Perfect Strangers LP sure showed everyone they were a FORSE not to be underestimated! 

    STP/ were a fabrication by the industry & feed songs to capitalize on the music scene. Is how i understand it! Like a nickleback , songs written & promoted forced in high rotation , that being said there were 2-3 songs that were sO undeniably Power-full & untouchable! By the time the hitmaker teams focused on a nickeleback they really had it down & pumped out hit after hit !  When big $ is behind something u never know who really writes the songs!

    fun songs though! 

  12. QUOTE ROBERT PLANT (circa mid 70’s):

    ”Were just miles ahead of whoever's # 2”

     

    Ah i love when theirs an opening for me to post the above quote by Robert Plant.

    What a amazingly funny response or just banter to throw out their without much thought sitting on TOP OF THE WORLD!

    TRUE ,to the point without skipping a beat or even remembering he said it  &  likely already moved on to next conversation 

    leaving me rolling on the floor as a teenager in the magazine isle in the early 80’s when i read it!

    Made me just LOVE 💕 the Band & him even more!

    Led Zeppelin has always been one of my most favorite things in my life!

    more than just their music ,  it’s their everything , their atmosphere , interviews , actions, quotes , cockiness  , JPJ the understated secret weapon  ALL OF IT such greatX’s !

    how could anyone just not be thankful we are around this close in time to even experience the after glow of what we (i) missed or caught the tail end of!

     

    idk whos fighting for spot number 3& 4

    but Zeps got #1 AND #2  totally coverd!

    Take that to the BANK!

     

     

     

     

  13. REALLY ???  Whats up with the nonsence threads? Like What are you eating and what is the weather where you’re at???

    I cant easily locate Interesting zeppelin threads that have been for some reason moved ? or clumped Under Unconnected topics etc  to streamline ? & LEDZEPPELIN.com our site here is allowing filler threads?

    The Zep boys wouldnt throw in filler songs & this is their OFFICIAL SITE, rite?

    Is Robert’s Jim Morrison quote from the Band of Joy concert on YouTube?

    Ive never looked but as i just responded to member Heaven11 on this site , try my suggestion to him . It definitely happened  as Melanie & Myself BOTH witnessed it  however it was quick & subtle BUT it was 

    WONDERFUL!

    try it , good luck & dont forget (would do ?whatever?)  i would like to obtain a copy also! 🤗

    so stay in touch & LMK thnx!

    Where can I find a video or audio of Robert saying “Is everybody in?” during the Band of Joy show in Ohio?

    I dont know of any1 who has that as a boot leg but Someone on this site (i cant remember who it was) can find a bootleg of just about anything Zep did & likely Plant solo also i think he said , it was some kind of underground? Type web address thats not for just everybody to know about it seemed . I pulled up the site & it WAS AMAZING & everything was shared FREE of charge at that.  This Zep site we both are members of has some majorly impressive & well connected other members THAT WILL help find it if it exists. Perhaps if u start a new thread asking for help “locating”  it he mite respond , he had recognized me from some of my threads / & or comments on here & felt i was legit or at least worthy of his assistance . He was sO knowledgable & helped me locate STH played live in cincinnati in 77 “effortlessly” !!  TRY IT!

    Anyway....my girl Melanie is a huge Doors/Morrison enthusiast, she had both of us anticipating a Morrison reference  at the mentioned columbus Band of Joy performance and BANG ! there it was....  

    I tell u what, i bet if u CAN FIND other solo yr Plant bootlegs you will likely find more references like this.

    AND IF you do get ahold of the show in columbus I WOULD like to get (purchase or ?) a copy !!! As it was a very special moment for us both that we knew would happen. Id like for her to/im sure she would love to have >a copy 🤤!

    stay in touch  please & LMK , thnx!

    The original working title for this project was Most High, which explains the angelic boys on the front cover taken by renown photographer Anton Corbijn.

     

    Ok .....well good to know.  Thanks for that information least I know something about it.  So its not Either one of them as children.  A strange choice by them! Like an afterthought or a non concern, geeeze!

    Seems like a lot of dropping the ball on some of their post Zep album covers! Album covers Are fun to stare at sometimes when listening to an album.  it kind of added to the music,Or the mystery of the band .

    take houses of the holy for example! Now thats an album cover worthy of the music inside!

    Yrs ago i questioned the outside cover of # 4 , but. I guess i got it , gives the feel of something classy i suppose . certainly more thought than this.

  19. You know the part im referring to, at the very end of the song.

    OMG! I would LOVE to hear more about it ! & more of it !

    Has that part in particular been discussed much? Is it natural ?Is it alterd  ? its just amazing. I dont recall ever hearing anything even close to that ever again by Robert, live or otherwise.

    or HOW ABOUT one  by a cover band? , if anyones ever done a comparable wicked “shriek” , i would love to hear it, pls post it!

     

     

     

    by itself >if one heard THAT “shriek”( i call it ) alone  ,outside in the dark

    YIKES!! 😳!!!
