  1. "All You Need Is Love" (live) - Paul Weller & Noel Gallagher
  2. One more from Townshend, this time playing with Bonzo on Paul McCartney's Rockestra: "(David Gilmour) had an enormous beer gut. (John Bonham) had a big beer gut as well. He played amazingly, incredible."
  3. Pete Townshend on Jimmy Page in 1990: "I knew Jimmy Page- Led Zeppelin weren't formed then but I'd seen him in various other bands & if anything his playing slowed down as he got older! He's an extrodinary player, arrogant, flash..."
  4. Just finished reading Bill Grahams autobiography & he dedicates a whole chapter on Zep & the Oakland incident. He was not kind. Here's a little bit: "Back then, Led Zeppelin was king of the world. They fucked with promoters by cutting costs & cutting corners. When I think back to that that whole incident, I think about the dealer sitting in that hotel room in a cowboy hat,waiting for his twenty-five grand. It was a time in my life when I had serious personal problems dealing with what I was doing for a living. I didnt like those people. I didnt like their influence on society or their power. I cant say it was Satanistic power. But they thought certain things were cool that definately werent."
  5. I chose "Ten Years Gone" out of those choices, but lyrically my favorites are "The Rover" & "Carouselambra".
  6. Pete Townshend & Ronnie Lane - Till The Rivers All Run Dry
