Hyde always wore the most amazing Classic Rock shirts on the show. But his Zeppelin ones always stood out. For real though, I would love to have a closet full of some of the shirts he wore on the show. Great show. Great shirt. Great band.

the "BLAST OFF" solo in "IN THE EVENING"
BlackDog71 replied to z1inspector's topic in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
Love seeing a thread about that part of the song. It's always been my favorite part of the song. It shows how creative Page could be. Even in the state he was in during that period. So much energy and noise. I always turn the song up, and especially before that part of the song.- 79 replies

Rank the Zeppelin albums - favorite to least favorite.
BlackDog71 replied to Jukkin's topic in Zep Polls
1. Physical Graffiti 2. Houses of the Holy 3. Led Zeppelin IV 4. Led Zeppelin II 5. Led Zeppelin III 6. Presence 7. Led Zeppelin 8. In Through the Out Door 9. Coda ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The toughest part of making this list was ordering numbers 4-7. I like all those albums a lot. Having the debut title be #7 looks odd, but it's a testament to just how much better they'd get, in my opinion. This is not an easy thing for me to do outside of #1....and possibly #2. After that, it was almost painful for me. LOL! It's also kind of cool and Interesting to see all the above posts that have PG as their favorite as well. -
Led Zeppelin's most beautiful song?
BlackDog71 replied to TheStairwayRemainsTheSame's topic in Zep Polls
"The Rain Song" wins this one for me. -
"Dancing Days" was on 97.9 The Loop (Chicago) as I drove to work today. Good song to pep me up a little.

I'm not totally well-versed in what could be considered "Classical Music", but I have fallen in love with both of these songs, and both of the composers. Some really good stuff. And for both of these, they are one song plucked from an entire suite. They're both my personal favorite pieces from their respective suites. Camille Saint-Saëns Gustav Holst This is an awesome live version. Better than most of the studio ones on YouTube. Mars!

Heard "Ten Years Gone" on SiriusXM Radio's "Classic VInyl" station. It was immediately turned up!
-
Heard "What Is and What Should Never Be" on the way to work today. One of my absolute favorites. Put me in a better mood for work. Heard it on 97.9 The Loop here in Chicago.

What is your favorite ending to a Zeppelin song?
BlackDog71 replied to The Love That I Found's topic in Zep Polls
Out of the ones you listed, I would choose "SIBLY", but I have a couple personal favorite Zep song endings that weren't on the list, and caused me to vote for "Other" on your list: The Lemon Song Over the Hills and Far Away (personal fav) When the Levee Breaks Great list though. -
"What Is and What Should Never Be" was on the radio on my way to work this afternoon. It was on 97.1 'The Drive' here in the Chicagoland area. It's extra awesome to me because it's my favorite song off of Zep II.

Finding Led Zeppelin in unrelated places
BlackDog71 replied to marmorek's topic in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
Someone was telling me about how they're "over the hill" when it comes to their baseball playing abilities. I almost instantly belted out: "....and far away." He had no idea what I was saying, but it didn't matter. It was satisfying enough for me. -
I love both bands, but I have always felt that Zeppelin was a more well-rounded band. Their music branched out more. I love a lot of The Who's lyrics and sound (especially live) though. Led Zeppelin will always be the standard by which all bands will be measured. I guess I have a bias. I do know that I will always love both, and continue to listen to both.

Down By The Seaside... The story behind this song?
BlackDog71 replied to IzzyBlues's topic in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
I always thought the song was really good, and used to think that it deserved more mention. But then I came on this site, and realized that the song is more loved and appreciated by people who listen to all of their music. "Down by the Seaside" will always make me feel like I need to ust sit on a boat by the water. -
Led Zeppelin?!?! Sadly, you have been wrong all these years. I hope he wasn't too hard on you when (hopefully) you found out it was Aerosmith and ONLY Aerosmith (mainly Steven Tyler) who wrote and played the original "Dream On."

That's a perfect way to describe how I feel when I listen to Rain Song. It's something no other Zeppelin song gives me. Well said sir.
