  1. Hi Steve. Always love your work on these seminal shows. Please could you send me a link please?
  2. Hi Steve, Could I also get a link, please? This sounds great. Thanks in advance.
  3. Hi Steve. May I have a link to your latest LZ project, please? I thoroughly enjoyed all of your Led Zeppelin previous shows.
  4. Hi Steve. Always appreciate your work. Please could you send me a link?
  5. Hi Steve. Can I get a link, please? Thanks in advance.
  6. I'd also very much appreciate being able to listen to this show! Could someone show an available dl link, please? Thank you!
  7. Ok. Who is the most insincere, then, would you tell me? Jimmy Page, when desperately seeking to keep up appearances facing Robert's wild defection, or Robert Plant when he talks about Led Zeppelin becoming a cabaret thing? Was ever the O2 show looking like a cabaret thing, for God's sake! Open your eyes, Nicholas.
  8. Ah ah ah! Unrealistic. Robert Plant doesn't drive Japanese cars, and openworks of his shirt were on the front, not on the back.
  9. Good point. Not completely accurate though: Universal Japan has released a John Paul Jones live set, Guitar Wars, in 2004. Even if it's a short set and the bill is a collective one, the show is amazing. https://www.discogs.com/fr/Steve-Hackett-John-Paul-Jones-Paul-Gilbert-Nuno-Bettencourt-With-Roger-King-Pat-Mastelotto-Mike-Szut/release/7081323 There's also the Page & Plant DVD from Paris Amnesty show in 1998 which has been officially released. Short set, but superb playing.
  10. I see things this way: Jimmy doesn't know if it will happen or not. Because he is dependent on Robert's will of recording new music with him to see it happen. So he's only able to hope for Robert's future change of view. That's why he's ever playing for time.
  11. Well, we have some clues. There's the song "Save Me" which is featured on the second Black Country Communion album. If I remember it well, Jason has said this composition has been originally written with Jones and Page during the aborted post-O2 sessions. Hearing the song's strong leaning towards Led Zeppelin's style, it's very plausible. There's also the Jimmy Page acoustic sequence at the end of It Might Get Loud. Or more accurately, the sequence belongs to the film's bonus scenes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQCv6jmv-EU The right time to expose new music is when Robert agrees on singing on it, I guess.
  12. I've always thought it was pretty unfair to blame Jimmy for his musical inactivity, because he's NOT responsible for that fact in the first place. Jimmy originally wanted to carry on with Robert after the 02 show, as were Jason and John Paul. It was pretty clear there would have been more LZ shows, but ALSO NEW music along the way, if they didn't broke up just after the one-shot London 2007 gig. You can't always blame Jimmy if he wants the best for his music vocally. And the best is Robert Plant. As simple as that. As long as Robert will not agree to write new musical compositions with Jimmy, or as long as Robert will prefer to postpone his future collaboration for some reason, Jimmy Page will set aside his new music (which does already exists) for the right time to be exposed. Jimmy is so cautious and wise to not compromise these tenuous chances of future P&P(+) collaboration, he will NEVER drop the bucket on Robert for his forced inactivity. I suspect Robert perfectly knows every bit and angle of this arcane human alchemy. And he plays with it, for years and years, now.
  13. Interesting topic. Does someone know here if the illustration has been specially designed and drawn for the inner sleeve or if it's a rehash of a drawing preexisting to the record?
  14. 92% here. I missed 1 question (the last one).
  15. Hmm, do you remember the shooting scene featuring Cole and Grant from the beginning of the movie, The Song Remains The Same? Do you recall what happens to the dive guys playing some sort of strange, twisted Monopoly, complete with skull, watchtowers and swastika envelopes?

  17. Yep. This fact is also reported in the pages of Barney Hoskyns book. This is Keith Richards who is responsible for having turned Jimmy into an heroin addict. Pure felony. Richards the bastard.
  18. There's a new Black Country Communion album to be recorded and released in the near future. So Jason will be involved in composing new music soon. He has expressed the need to go back to writing's work.
  19. And now Ladies and Gentlemen, the question that kills : if Plant hadn't vetoed the post O2 project (new album and tour), do you still think Page would have considered relevant to immerse himself in this extended campaign ? I don't think so. They'd have known better things to do. For me, Page has lost his beautiful focus on action along the way with this project coming to reality. But I don't blame him at all. Because what he had in mind for his band in 2008 and so on was a total different beast that what we have now. So by deciding to remaster all the studio catalogue one more time, Page has made a choice by default. That's a problem when you try to think in terms of idealistic art direction.
  20. What about the five Montreux shows from 1970, 1971 and 1972 ?
  21. Led Zeppelin special (100 pages long) issue from the French magazine "Les Inrockuptibles". http://img15.hostingpics.net/pics/215536lesinrocksspecialLZ.jpg
  22. Thank you for the photo, I knew that one. This was taken in 1985, apparently. Frankly I have some serious doubt about Philippe Paringaux being the guy in black with mustache and leather boots beside Jimmy Page at the Paris airport. I've found some French TV archives on the INA (Institut National de l'Audiovisuel) website. The INA is an official administration which has in charge of preserving the memory of past TV documents. http://www.ina.fr/video/I00006372/ten-years-after-going-home-video.html Here is above an excerpt of Philippe Paringaux presenting Ten Years After in 1969. Be careful, Philippe is the SECOND journalist in order of appearances, NOT the first one. After watching this document which is dated from the same year as the photo, 1969, it's seems reasonable to say that Philippe Paringaux is NOT the person with Jimmy Page at the airport. I still think it's John Bonham itself. What do you all think about that ? Give us some feedback, please.
  23. The Paris airport photos are all signed by Christian Rose, I think. Photo credits are attributed to him page 54. Plus there's another explicit mention of it p.62 when they say one of Christian Rose's photos shot at the airport was selected to illustrate the cover of the 45 rpm French pressing of "Whole Lotta Love".
