  2. I really like Terry Reid though I kind of view him in the same vein as Roy Harper. I think he preferred it small and intimate, don't think he courted fame nor really wanted it. Though had he taken Page up on the offer I believe without Bonham and the Plant dynamic the band would have been good but probably remained somewhat underground. Maybe two or three albums and that's it, a minor blip on Rock music's radar. That is not an insult to Mr. Reid mind you, it's just that a perfect storm is just that, all element must be perfect and in the right place, move something around just a bit and...POOF! Just imagine the Stones without Jagger, Gun's & Roses without Axl, Pink Floyd without Roger Waters. Wait, forget that last one, we all know how that turned out.

    LOL David Gilmour's version was awesome!!! saw both tours in Toronto (A Momentary Lapse of Reason 1988, The Division Bell 1994), Best concerts I have ever attended.

  3. I jammed with Brad Park when he was about sixteen even then he was amazing and when I commented on how much I enjoyed Jamming Zeppelin covers with him he told me " when I was five my dad bought me my first kit and told me to learn to play like

    John Bonham"

    He was a really cool guy and a great neighbor.

  4. The truth is, I believe a Jimmy Page/Tea Party tour would most likely be the greatest live thing Jimmy could do not only for himself, but for his fans as well since The Tea Party music tends to have a similar vibe or feeling to Led Zeppelin. It really is depressing that he doesn't see that with The Tea Party since they have reunited this summer, and Jimmy prefers to just show up at award shows with Ross all of the time instead of actually picking up the guitar...

    Imagine The bow duel they could have :huh:

  5. Funny how the person that uploaded "Down In Flames" on YouTube says it went on to become "You're No Good" from Van Halen II. "You're No Good" is a cover of a song by Clint Ballard, Jr. that was made famous by Linda Ronstadt (and was covered by several others as well). I realize cover songs don't always adhere to the original version sonically but I really don't hear Van Halen's version of "You're No Good" in "Down In Flames".

    No but its for sure the precursor for Tattoo.

    anyway I like down in flames version way better than the watered down version they call Tattoo.

  6. Don't think DC was the best choice for vocalists on this album. Not sure who he should have gone with, but I'm sure many of you can make a few suggestions outside of RP. Jimmy does some of his very best work and playing on this album, developing some many and unique sounds that we've never heard before. It probably just needed some tweaking to really make it exceptional.

    I'd Love to hear him play with the Ladies from heart

  7. I'm forced to totally disagree with every word of this post. C/P is easily Pages best playing post Zep. The music is completely natural and uncontrived. I really have to laugh to even have to try and convince anyone that the guitar on C/P absolutely blows away any Alternative/Britpop/Seattle and all that disgusting Grunge crap. The only good music that ever come out of the Seattle area was Heart which were Zep worshipers. Also Albini is a total piece of shit producer that doesn't even deserve to be in the same room with Jimmy Page. And as to Plant rescuing Page from this style of music that is such a freaking joke. Zeppelin did 10 albums of this kind of music! The real reason was that Plant heard the C/P record and got worried that Page and Coverdale might be on to something and just had to break that up. Thats why WIC is, except for a couple tracks, a watered down pretty uninspired effort.

    I Totally agree with everything you said!! :D

    also the Firm really did nothing for me IMO Paul Rogers didn't cut the mustard on vocals.

  8. Good work! Could you have 2 sections, one for the August 4th videos and one for the August 11th shows?

    To find the 4th show videos, I recommend going for the youtube channels "chriss999" and "Matthew9444".

    I would be happy to look into doing this in the near future.

    my intial idea was to put together a full set list of of the show TBH this might be a mix of both nights IDK. :unsure:

    I am hoping that as these were found on you tube that this site wont get me into trouble. :unsure:

    Glad to see people are enjoying my labor of love for IMO the best band ever!!!
