    Totally agreed. Just a personal remark: IMHO the problem was home-made to a certain degree, as Jimmy wanted the band playing that loud. Why did they have to play "10 times as loud as anybody else"??? A little volume reduction might have saved Robert´s chords, the audience would have had a far better sound, while still beeing as loud as contemporary bands.

    Interesting in retrospect for led zeppelin

    Although the 1988 robert plant shows were noticeably louder than jimmy pages 1988 shows

    The Stones, Keith Richards, at this stage in the game, need to get approval to release a song? I doubt this is how it works.

    They're capable & driven to write and play music. If you're able to do what you love, especially at their age, of course it's necessary. Jagger, Watts, & Richards are pushing 60 years of being an active R&R unit which continues to perform and write new material. That is fucking astounding and should be celebrated.

    Critics be damned. It's only pandemic Rock & Roll. But, I like it.

    But do we need the rolling fucking stones....reminding us that its a ghost town and this is a totally messed up situation?

    I would think a young hot band, wouldnt even want to write a song about it. But after, look what the cat dragged in, the rs are writing about any fucking thing. Also, god bless them 

  3. Actually in isolation,  i thought of an idea of a theramin cast in aluminum nickel or steel, whichever metal would work the best,  in the shape of the presence object....painted matte black of course. But i could see such an item on ebay, being a must have for zep geeks man caves, all over the world. We could make 2 models, one that gets hooked up to a stereo system and one that can be set up to guitar amps.

    I think that last photo sums it up

    JPJ is thinking "wrong pedal, Jimmy"

    Plant is thinking "Okay, this is not gonna work"

    Jimmy - "screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeech"

    On the first photo, jimmy is thinking....wait a minute, if i stand up maybe it'll sound better

    On 2nd photo, fuck this gimme the mandolin 

    boe makes the setlist, bigly goes dormant for decades

    Actually bigly imo is maybe the most memorable live song, of the page plant era. They poured alot of energy into that song in 98 and that band, played that song very well. 

  5. Well on cnbc, by far from the investor economy people, broadcasting from home, its been grateful dead mini framed posters, some janis joplin, doors, and zep 

    When i work im homes that have satellite radio,  i can listen to the beatles all day and i can listen to the grateful dead all day

  6. ^Speaking of the weird world of led zep, hey hey and travelling riverside and poor tom have the same element of fun that was very clear early on for them, cause they were so good together. Its totally there on the songs page and bonzo did with lord such also. Yet that light hearted element is implemented very sparingly throughout all of the records, good times, living loving, dancing days, crunge, ocean, mmh, candystore, hots on, southbound, fool

    So i totally agree that hey hey, should have been on 3, it would have totally made that record more memorable, accessible. Also, now that i think about it, it does have a end of movie, credits rolling aspect that would work as a closing song. Yet with that, i would suggest another upbeat song like travellin riverside and an edit of an acoustic song or 2 .

    Do you enjoy listening to the O2 ‘Celebration Day’ recording?

    Yes, why is it an all digital recording? I never read the liner notes

    Please excuse me for being an old ornery lz fan. I saw 2 robert plant shows in 88 and the shows were great, have really nice memories of hearing, in the mood and in the evening and all the zep songs. But that album was always an effort to listen to, for me. Those shows were loud and guitar and drum heavy....but those couple of albums lacked the vibe of fate of nations and mighty rearranger. I think mtv news said it best in 1988 when they interviewed rp, they said, " his own brand of electronic rock."  Also, am not a fan of the keyboard sound on those 2 records, to me rp was in a post shaken n stirred mode. Although,  if he had a few songs off now and zen on shaken n stirred, with that band,, it would have been a better record. 

    Still, a remastered video of "tall cool one" .......to me, could be posted in the, " is led zeppelin in the end game" thread.
