  2. Mysterious indeed. Has a kinda Clint Eastwood look to it too.
  3. Ok, not excatly a hot pic of Robert but....at physical therapy last week my therapist gave me this pose to do. I took one look at it and said, "that is excatly how Robert Plant stands, this should be called The Robert Pose." So he left me to draw in the hair.

  11. My beautiful Granddaughter. Now almost a month old. She was 6lbs4oz. 21 inches long. 4:13am. Her mom had a great first time delivery, no epidural. It was a wonderful experience.
  12. Hey Mandy. But you're doing what you love, so good on ya! Ok, here are a couple of things Donovan said that led me to believe he truly admires....himself. (I love his music though...despite himself.) " Mickie Most later said that the music we made in late 1965 and 1966 influenced the Beatles to experiment more adventurously on Sgt. Peppers. This may well be. I also stirred the Celtic Cauldron and encouraged Led Zeppelin to express himself with images and sounds from our Celtic European roots. ( )" "I gave our music the name 'Celtic Rock'." Hurdy Gurdy Man " John Paul Jones and I had worked together before, and he arranged and played on "Hurdy Gurdy Man" session. We were joined by drummers Clem Catini and John Bonham. Most people would think we used an effect on the voice, but it was natural. Layers of guitar were added by Page and Hollsworth, and a new kind of metal folk was created. The term metal had not been coined for music yet, but perhaps Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham were inspired be this session to form Led Zeppelin." Whatever. He also alluded to Bonham playing with them as a "studio drummer who knew JPJ, and JP" (before they-JP- had actually met.) Ah well, sometimes it's better to not know about people who's music you love.
  13. Great pics Swede. Side note: I just finished Donovan's autobiography and was stunned to read he bought three of those islands many moons ago. He sold them a couple of years later. And songbird....really cute one there.
  14. I like old books too. It may be a collectible. Though being the third printing probably not so much.
  15. Now this is just plain...Wilde Mine is old...1946. Third printing, with a groovy dust jacket showing the movie, and on the back sleeve it say's "You may send this book to a member of the armed forces for 4 cents." I'm on it next 'cos I have read the Ron Wood book...though I wound up re-reading parts of it anyway. Donovan....when I have the book handy I'll quote some what IMHO are rediculous statements. Like HIS influence on Zeppelin, Dylan, Flower Power...like he invented everything. Typical Scot.
  16. For me it's the jeans........
  17. FINALLY...on July 1, the new no more private club law goes into effect!!!! It will be partay city here. Like some states we have battled with liquor laws since the beginning of time. It used to be to get a drink you had to be a member of a so called "private club." Or only go to a bar/pub that ONLY sold beer. Before that...it was bring your own bottle and just buy your mix, or pay a friggen "bottle fee." NOW we and tourists, who were always confused, can just go to a club and order a drink...duh! When I went out a lot we enjoyed barhopping to see where the best action and friends were. When they passed the private club crap you had to buy a "membership" to every single club, about 25 to 35 bucks per bar. Or ask someone to let you in as their "guest." Now, I really don't go to bars/pubs a lot anymore, but just to celebrate I do believe I'm going to celebrate this (thanks to our Republican Governor....who Obama has snatched up ) law and go to all the clubs I like. Barhopping parties are in the works.
  18. NICE!!!! Actually HOT enough to turn on the AC. 89 degrees with a few tiny clouds.
  19. That's funny...I JUST picked the same book up a few days ago. I found it in a give away book box. I'll get to it after I read the two autobiographies I picked up at the library today: Donovan (Leitch) The Hurdy Gurdy Man just started it. I'm on a Donovan kick lately. In the thanks to page he thanks.."Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, Jeff Beck, Graham Nash, and to all my studio pals, diamonds all. Let's do it again!" Ron Wood...though I may have already read it...
  20. Oh, I just wanted to wish you a happy one if it was yours. But tell your neighbor happy birthday from zep.com.
  21. Thank you tangerine. I love to just hold her and marvel at her every move. Who has the BD EL?
