  1. Communication Breakdown, filmed sometime between Feb 11 and 15th, 1969, at Thee Image Club in Miami, "...probably one of two numbers video taped for "The Rick Shaw Show", a local TV show hosted by a popular Miami Top 40 Radio DJ". http://www.ledzeppelin.com/video/communication-breakdown-1969-promo-film
  2. I think this is his website (with contact info): http://shelleyarchives.webs.com/ good luck!
  3. Steve, this came up in another thread...I seem to recall reading somewhere that Plant's appearance with Rockpile at the Concerts for Kampuchea was unplanned. He was there as a guest and then asked to participate. Or was it planned all along? It would explain the way the song ended...
  4. Jimmy and Robert just missed each other on this date...

    Bonzo

    Terry Webb and The Spiders with Mo Mills (AKA Terry Webb, Lead Singer), Dave Busby (Lead Guitar), Wilf Haddon (Bass), Ray Tew (Rhythm Guitar) and John Bonham (Drums)
  6. Based on this excerpt from a Toronto Star article he gave interview(s) on March 1st, so I would guess the press conference was the same day...maybe the conference was the "interview"...
  7. Interview with Paul Rodgers: http://www.rockcella...s-is-the-voice/ RCM: You recorded that album on the Swan Song record label, launched by Led Zeppelin in ’74. Did Bad Company and Led Zeppelin ever jam together? PR: I remember Zeppelin standing on the side of the stage at a concert in the Finsbury Park Astoria in London, and I waved them onstage because they were just standing there enjoying the show. They looked at me and went, “What!?” because they weren’t at all expecting it. So they came on stage and we grabbed a bunch of guitars and we had the most amazing jam session. It was incredible. The audience was high at the end of our set, but when the Zeps walked on they went absolutely crazy. We played some blues numbers, I think we did Rock Me Baby and if I remember correctly, Every Day I Have the Blues. RCM: How far back does your relationship with Led Zeppelin go? PR: Back in the early days I remember meeting Robert Plant in Birmingham before Led Zeppelin were formed, when Free was touring with Alexis Korner. He had a jam session with Alexis Korner and afterwards Robert came back to the hotel with me and had a cup of tea. He said, “You know, I’ve been invited to go down to London and form a band with a guy called Jimmy Page, have you heard of him”" And I said, “Yeah, he’s a session guitarist that everyone is talking about down there,” and he said, “Oh, yeah, well they offered me 30 quid or a percentage — what do you think?” And I said, “Take the percentage, man!” So, yeah, we go back a long way. RCM: You recorded two albums with Jimmy Page in the mid-’80s as The Firm. Do you keep in touch? PR: I do. Jimmy is a wonderful, really warm, quiet person. He’s a sweetheart and I always enjoy his company. I play with John Bonham’s son Jason sometimes also. He’s a fantastic drummer.
  8. My guess is Montreux...I`ve seen a few mentions/rumours that there were cameras there.

    Hot pics of Jimmy

    This one is new to me...any ideas where it was taken (looks like an airport)?
  10. Steve, I`ve always wondered about whether the boys played more than just Dazed and Confused at the Staines 69 show and if so whether any of these other songs might have been filmed. Any ideas?
  11. Christ Slade backing Tom Jones in 1964 on The Beat Room (a show on which Jimmy Page apparently appeared too) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRdNrwE13Yg
  12. Also circulating: Texas International Pop Festival 1969
  13. That would make sense. It couldn't have been a Led Zeppelin gig - I would think they were too well known even by that date.
  14. Page 1 Ad from the Leidsche Courant (Leiden, Netherlands) for a Saturday Sept. 20th, 1969 show !? Any ideas? Here's the online source.
  15. I'd have to agree with that... I really like this track
  16. I don`t know...that car looks North American, but I can`t say for sure.... What is the source info on the photo in Reddon`s book?
  17. Steve, I just read in an article in Uncut that Ian Stewart (or Stu) played not only on Boogie with Stu but also on Rock and Roll. Is that true? Any idea why he wasn't credited? Thanks
  18. Jason will be the guest on the George Stromboulopoulos show tonight on CBC tv. Not sure when it was recorded, but most interviews are posted on the site not long after.
