Not only very funny , but also well written. What a great story song. June 1973. Man this was big on the radio where I lived. We all loved it. -

Led Zeppelin Is Flying High On The Charts Again [Forbes] 4/14/24
John M replied to sam_webmaster's topic in News
We are 50 years or so from the middle of the Zep era. If I go back 50 years from 1973-75 we are at 1923-25. Recording technology was in it's infancy. Records were just hitting the market in a big way. People were buying 78 rpm singles of songs by Louis Armstrong's Hot Five and Hot Seven , Bessie Smith, Ma Rainey, Al Jolson, Paul Whiteman, Ben Bernie, King Oliver, Sidney Bechet, Bix Beiderbecke, Fletcher Henderson. The first Duke Ellington single I can find listed was released in 1927. -
Finding Led Zeppelin in unrelated places
John M replied to marmorek's topic in Led Zeppelin Master Forum
Great find. A few notes. First, that outfit takes me back to 1975. Second, I looked up the episode. It aired Nov 1, 1975. It was filmed June 13, 1975, just 3 months after the release of the album. -
The above posts about the old Jon Stewart show reminded me of this gem. My goodness. Thirty years ago.

Thanks to all who made this happen. At 10:22 before the guitar solo in Over the Hills the guitar drops out. Great 20 seconds of bass and drums follows. Edit - in the YouTube comments someone pointed out that from the film it appears Page broke a string and got another guitar. I had not noticed that on first viewing.

John M replied to The Pagemeister's topic in Other Bands / Music
1970 was the year of Creedence for me. My older brother brought the albums home, and my mom liked some of the songs that were on the radio. Well I had my first pair of headphones and when I got this 8 track (yes 8 track !) it was too much. This was all before I discovered Zeppelin the next year. -

Wow. What a treasure. Thank you. The bass is so amazing. Dig the rarely performed oohs and aahs from Plant during the outro to Immigrant Song. Funny how Page hits that one clipped chord before Celebration Day without going into the full intro he played at a few other shows. And is it just me, or is Celebration Day from 1971 just about the most exciting thing they ever did?

What show or live song are you listening to now?
John M replied to Misfit's topic in Led Zeppelin Live
Bloomington MN Jan 18, 1975 I was thinking what it must have been like to see one of those early 1975 shows, never having heard any Grafitti tracks. Second song is Sick Again. After Rain Song the audience is pummeled with Kashmir. Can't imagine it. Next up Wanton Song. After NQ they are blasted with Trampled. Hard to imagine what people were thinking. Moby Dick brings back the familiar. Then Dying Time. The mind boggles. . . Edit- I had forgotten how energetic and superb NQ is in this show. Page is on fire. Of course Jones and Bonham are too. -

Fantastic photos. I always like photos that include the audience. I looked up this venue on Wikipedia (I know, buyer beware) and it says that Zep was the first rock band to play the venue.

I read the title and thought "how can this not be good?" Then after I listened to it I thought about that Jones quote when Zooma came out. They said his album was Zep influenced. Jones said well I think Zeppelin was John Paul Jones influenced. Damn straight.
