It's a family decision, not ours by any stretch.

Agree - def not Jimmy Page.

Happy Thanksgiving from Bagram, Afghanistan! Make it a Grateful Day!

What a sign of the times. The Army recruiting poster with a big peace sign over a soldiers face and hanging above a bunch of hippies. What a time the early 1970's must have been.

Doesn't he also play drums on a couple of Steve Miller tracks IIRC?

I can't believe we are discussing the length of someone's finger nails and debating why.......

This HAS to be where Jimmy got the inspiration for his symbol on the 4th album! GraZioso! - You know I'm just kidding right?

I was pretty skeptical before checking this site out and I'll be the first to admit I was really impressed. I've been into Zeppelin for decades and there's a lot of stuff I haven't seen before. The alternate Coda cover for example and a TSRTS Movie poster from Greece? Crazy! Some serious effort went into this and it's worth your time for sure.

I'd actually buy a Zeppelin Hello Kitty - I have a soft spot for HK and my daughter.

Pass - I like to wear high quality clothing but these are stupid high prices. Like a lot of you I wish JP would have invested the money into new recordings/releases. I'm guessing merch has a higher ROI? Shame.

Awesome indeed!

Doesn't Orlando 1971 have a pretty cool/unique intro to Celebration Day? It's always been one of my fave live tracks.

Oh ya! This is actually on my Rhino Music Calendar. I'll be rocking this all day - starting with the LZII Multi-track mixdowns - followed by LZII proper and then some live gig from around this time. I have a job were I get to listen to music all day. If it's too loud your too old - Lock it in and rip the knob off! Happy 50th LZII!

+1

1969 was a pretty good year for BB King - Opening for acts like Zeppelin and going on tour with The Rolling Stones near the end of the year. I wonder how often BB & Zeppelin crossed paths during these early years of touring. Wish I had a time machine!
