  1. There's the crucial mistake: Page is one of the greatest Rock Producers ever, but he let two lesser men exert too much control. Theres a reason Roberts name has never received sole Producing credits. Albini quite simply not in same league as either one.
  2. Man that Pontiac video needs to come out
  3. I just can't get past the poor production, sorry. And there are some good songs on there for sure. I listen to it once every few years and I hate it more each time.
  4. A nice simple 30 minute acoustic set one off performance would be so EASY for them to pull off to commemorate 50th anniversary. No reason not to except egos & lawyers
  5. In a Richard Cole interview, he claimed one time Bonzo, in 1975, told him he'd just gotten a check for 5 million dollars. In 1975. That's like 20 million today. Imagine giving almost 90% to the government. Id be an exile too
  6. See Jimmy's comments on Syd and Jimi, believe it !
  7. Here's a Page mystery question. Who was Brian Goode his by all accounts completely inept manager from 1988-1994 or thereabouts. I can't ever recall seeing a picture of him or heard of him managing any other acts. How did Jimmy hook up with him?
  8. I don't think Jimmy had enough Jazz knowledge to hang with Miles, no disrespect to Jimmy.
  9. Thx for info wow hope that news footage turns up someday!
  10. I don't know if this qualifies as a mystery, but I want to know more about Zeppelin and the Peace Medal Ceremony in Hiroshima in 1971. 1. Who's idea was it? Zep or promoter? 2. Zep donated their concert proceeds? 3. Was this a big deal in Japan? Or did every rock band do this etc thx
  11. 1. Yes recorded at Musicland. This is clearly a professionally recorded multi track recording whereas SIR studios in LA was just a rehearsal studio. 2. Jimmy stated that Robert didn't come up with lyrics for it. To understand this, one has to understand Zep and Jimmy's approach to recording. In many cases, Jimmy would construct a song and deliver it in its final form to Robert. The Song Remains the Same and Ten Years Gone are two examples of this. So it looks like this track was worked up, but just didn't get to the finish line. 3. Lord only knows what the title means totally random bizarre and quintessentially Zep.
  12. Jason posted it a few years back maybe check his FB page
  13. Love them or hate them, Steve Perry is one of greatest Rock singers of all time. Dudes voice is golden. Mercury, Plant, Rodgers, and Perry those are the best.
  14. The Zach clone is Iggy Knight the lighting guy for Showco.
  15. Ramalamalamalama Rock n Roll is King. ?
  16. I was hoping you wouldn't notice it was missing ??
