    Thanks for the vote LZFan77.

    I think the Bills and Dolphins are onto something. It's early, but I think they are finding a good groove.

    I think New England is onto something, and it doesn't feel good, lol!

    Hope I am wrong on all of it, but the Bills especially, and now with news that they won't be moving, seem to be one fired up hungry group.

    Agree with most of the others. Double live Gonzo is quite the little quick ride through Ted's best times.

    After that, it hasn't been much, honestly. Same old recycled hash mostly, occasional flashes of good stuff.

    Lawsuit over Stairway to Heaven

    in News

    Posted · Edited by in_the_evening

    Win, lose, or draw, all of these repeated theft allegations have impacted adversely on the name and legacy of Led Zeppelin. I am of two minds on the topic, but the damage done is irreversible at this stage. A case in point being The Simpson's characterization of Jimmy. It's all most unfortunate.

    Couldn't have said this better myself. As much as I love Zep, it is very disheartening to keep seeing these accusations. And more than a few appear to be quite meritorious.

    I did somehow miss the Simpson's characterization of Jimmy, I will have to Google it. Although sadly, JP is contributing to his own unattractive characterizations, with his promise to "play live soon", something we've been hearing for about 20 years now.

    Contributing late, so I'll just go all over the place, lol! Jeff Beck's TRUTH is a MONSTROUSLY good album!

    Edit: I found the Simpsons reference. Ouch.

    Tour over Europe 1980 best of

    in Led Zeppelin Live

    Posted

    I always thought the Tour Over Europe didn't get the respect it deserved. I find some of the shows very good, I like the trimmed down songs (no long solos and what not). Unfortunately it was really a warmup exercise for the planned US Tour, so some of the shows are sort of bland. There are some jewels (heck, the fact they would open with pretty raucous versions of Train Kept a Rollin was pretty amazing)

    It does seem like a huge accusation to make, but God knows Frehley has had issues since almost day one of the band. His actions during the interview with Tom Snyder should have got him booted from the band the next day. Stanley does not seem to be one to make idle accusations, so if he says it, it is a whole lot more believable.

    Bob Dylan

    The first time I saw Bob was probably 1993 or so, it was in Beverly MA on a college campus (Endicott) under a big tent....

    Bob was good, but like Strider says, he has a tendency to change things up every night. I became a fairly large Dylan bootleg collecter, and the setlists were never the same from night to night. He would have a core of songs, so 12 songs would stay the same, but he would mix in four new ones in each setlist....always in the same positions (so songs 2, 5,9, and 12 for example would be diff each night). For most of the early 90s, I remember song 3 was always "All Along the Watchtower" and the closing song was always "It Ain't Me Babe".

    I remember the show and sometimes he would be almost done the song before I realized what the song was. He would speed up ballads and turn them into rock and roll numbers and do the opposite to other songs. On one of his live CDs (Real Live) he does Tangled Up in Blue with an entirely new set of lyrics, and that is a long song with a lot of words. To do that, get all the syllables matching up and what not, pretty amazing.

    Some of his finest material he never officially released until "the Bootleg Series" stuff.

    Incredible he still plays to this day as many shows as he does.
