  1. fantastic !! Always loved that keyboard part and it really comes through here. Thanks
  2. The bass in Heartbreaker is sublime. Fantastic remaster.
  3. Now that is how you do a 50th anniversary of an event. I hope Jimmy takes note.
  4. Great track - my favorite Robert Plant album by a mile.
  5. Does anyone at Ultimate Classic Rock fact check? 1978? I clicked to the linked article and it really says 1978. Also to say audience was "over 30,000" is interesting. The video of that day shows very few empty seats and the entire field is full of people. In 1977 the seating capacity was around 54,000. So if by "over 30,000" they mean about 50,000 I guess that is right. For the attendance to be around 30,000 the field would have to be empty and the seats would have to be less than 60% full.
  6. Opening track from this classic album released January 1958.
  7. No Quarter Los Angeles 24 March 1975
  8. 50 years ago next week. Sept 26 1969 in the UK and Oct 1 in the US. 3 weeks before LZII. At the time I was 10 and the Beatles were everything. Had never heard of Zeppelin at that point. Abbey Road blew me away. What an amazing album.
  9. The sound of Jones' bass in Dallas March 5, 1975 remastered by Grame.
  10. Great article - thanks for posting. Hard to believe it is 20 years. When I think back to the day I got this I can hardly believe how intense and amazing this record is. My favorite post Zeppelin album. Pure John Paul Jones - unleashed ! I mean Crackback and Spaghetti Junction were good but this is over the top. I was forturnate enough to see his first show in the US at Pearl Street Nightclub in the little college town of Northampton, MA. Oct 12. Holds about 500 people. I was standing right in front of Jones. The crowd was going bananas. After the show we waited to see if we could see Jones. Finally gave up and went home. The next day I read in the local paper that Jones and the band were staying at the Hotel Northampton right downtown near the club - they showed up at the bar later and had drinks with a local reporter and some fans. I missed opportunity for me but what an amazing show.
  11. Not sure it is "better" but it is very different from the original and quite a rock workout.
  12. Way back when in our naive days we thought this was a Skynyrd song.
