So are there any decent modern rock bands at all? My new years resolution was to start listening to something from more recent than 1979. Can I have any younger chaps point me in the right direction please, my wife and daughter despair at me only ever listening to Zeppelin and the Stones ! PS if anyone says Greta Van Shit I’m going to put a contract out on them 😉

..give it time and there certainly will be 😉

The cassette version and LP 76 versions are surely the same ?

This is only “New” release I’ve seen 😉

Shit ..did I miss it ?.....

In a nutshell the reissued 2007 version of TSRTS was butchered by the producer Kevin Shirley (and Page) so that amongst other things the original solo from NQ is edited as is the original second solo on CD. Dont’t ask why...there is no sensible answer !

.......and ?

Haha ..yes ..maybe OMD or Depech Mode.😱. ..probably first -and last-time -those “bands” ever mentioned on this forum !

Now this kid in the audience from UK Channel 4 News last night -HAS to be related to Jimmy ?? See his 1960 (ish) pic below. (sorry I posted this previously in the wrong place —maybe this is still not it)

To be honest most of the current crop of books are just a rehash of older stuff ..my favourite is Heaven and Hell from ‘91

Simply awesome stuff !

Absolutely agree with you on this- Sakurai is phenomenally good at not just the technical stuff but also the look and the moves. I would like to see him put the odd bum note in tho-just to be totally authentic 😉
