" A letter from Peter Grant to Kim Fowley the future manager of Led Zeppelin was then office manger for Mickey Most. Mickey produced Kim Fowley on the Bo Didley classic "who do you love." Kim had to get to the studio on The Tube. " Source: http://www.kimfowley.net/victories/losttreasuresvinylclassics.htm ..doesn't look it has been posted before...

...I have to watch this part again....it's been sometime since I watched Earl's Court.... I do wish that Peter Grant would have played more active role in preserving Film Footage (despite of being poor quality at times) of Led Zeppelin...it would have been an extra ordinary vision, but nevertheless, Peter Grant changed History of Rock Music...he has earned a Respectable Title as a Rock Manager Must Be...

....keep us posted, love the pictures you posted....great to see you enjoying your passion...

..."Unfortunately I didn't get to see the Sex Pistols. Back then you couldn't catch the Sex Pistols because all the gigs were being cancelled. It was a weird time, too, and an interesting time to go in there because it was fashionable. Did it bother me when we were labelled dinosaurs? No. It really didn't. I was more interested to hear what they were doing. I knew what I did, and what I'd done, and I had no problem with that. But I wanted to see what these guys were up to. And in fact they were really laying it down." Jimmy Page Mojo February 2010 ...Hello and welcome... it is fashionable for us to continue The Tradition, most interested in what this generation has to say ...

Games on groove ZEP’S DEFINITIVE BASS GURU The Telegraph, Calcutta India Thursday, April 16, 2009 It is perhaps fitting to start our 2009 series of Learning With t2 with a bass player who has influenced whole generations — the inimitable John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin. It is nearly a must for every budding bass player — why, every musician — to study the groovy bass lines that act as the backbone for Zeppelin’s unique sound, and Jones himself is one of the most interesting bass players from the late 1960s. Every musician finds inspiration in a predecessor and so did Jones — in the bass playing of Phil Upchurch of Chicago. In Led Zeppelin, Jones’s bass lines were characterised by the coming together of powerful melody and time, going hand-in-glove with the band’s rhythmic powerhouse, drummer John Bonham. Overtones of genres like blues, funk and Motown are unmistakable in Jones’ playing, which is also a key to the success of this British rock band. People would not only come to hear Zeppelin play, they would also come to dance. Jones comes up as a perfect example on the subject of versatility of a musician. Apart from Zeppelin, he had done sessions as a bass player-composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist (playing keyboard, mandolin, guitars, ukulele, continuum, recorder etc) with bands and artists like John McLaughlin, the Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, Cat Stevens, Rod Stewart, Tom Jones, R.E.M., Peter Gabriel, the Foo Fighters and Paul McCartney, to name but a few. Jones’ contributions to the Zeppelin sound extended to the use of other instruments, including an unusual triple-necked acoustic instrument consisting of a six- and a 12-string guitar and a mandolin. He also advocated the use of pedals or single-unit processors to complement the sound of the band. His bass-lines were always intertwined with the melody of the song — sometimes with it, sometimes as a support — but always complementing the drummer, always powerful and usually promiscuous. He used a 1961 Fender Jazz Bass till 1975, before moving on to custom-designed Alembics for the road. The quietest member of Zeppelin, Jones released his first solo recording as a single for Pye Records in April 1964 which featured Baja. Some of his solo works are Scream For Help, The Sporting Life, Zooma and The Thunderthief. Since Led Zeppelin’s split in 1980 with the death of Bonham, Jones has collaborated with a number of artistes. Jones played in the Led Zeppelin reunion show at London’s O2 Arena on December 10, 2007 as part of a tribute to Ahmet Ertegun.
