  1. According to this interview, they tried to get Jimmy play on the new Ozzy Osbourne album. Other players appaearing on the album are Jeff Beck and Eric Clapton. https://www.blabbermouth.net/news/new-ozzy-osbourne-album-to-feature-pearl-jams-mike-mccready-queens-of-the-stone-ages-josh-homme/ Chad went on to say that "the English royalty of guitar players" has been recruited to guest on Osbourne's new album. "Tony Iommi and Ozzy have never collaborated outside of BLACK SABBATH," he said. "Tony sent us a bunch of riffs and we took what we thought was the best of 'em, which was fucking great. So Andy's on the bass doing fucking great — the bass on the song is amazing. And Tony sent us the riffs — files; he's in England — and we played to it. It's fucking got everything. It's got all the stuff that you would want. Ozzy loves it. And so he's on that track. Then Eric Clapton plays a fucking wah-wah CREAM-type solo. We're, like, 'Eric, can you solo on this song? Wah-wah, please. Eric, what do you think about this, with the wah-wah?' Because that's his fucking thing. And so he's soloing all over this other track. Then Jeff Beck is on two songs. We tried to get Jimmy Page [LED ZEPPELIN], we tried to get the holy trinity, but I don't think Page plays anymore too much, unfortunately. But Mike McCready's [PEARL JAM] on a track. Josh Homme, my neighbor from QUEENS [OF THE STONE AGE], solos on a track. And then Zakk Wylde [BLACK LABEL SOCIETY] is on the record as well, all over it. So it's like if you're a guitar player, [it's] pretty fucking good." I guess this confirms what we discussed here for a long time. Page is not in any form to play anything substantial on the guitar anymore. Sad.
  2. That's 100% Bonham. Exactly the same pattern that appear in many solos and GTBT. If it is another drummer, I will stop listening to LZ.
  3. Nice one! The whole sequence is like GTBT. They roll into Foggy Mountain Breakdown.
  4. Only 43 euros in Europe! Looking forward to the book.
  5. Jimmy never does anything for free, especially these days Only his yearly album/tour-announcement is for free 😅
  6. Screaming can get annoying especially when it's overdone. Hughes is one of these guys. And the tonality of his screams sounds kinda "childish" compared to Gillan's screams (pre 1990) for example. I prefer singers like Dio who never or barely screamed.
  7. Anyone but Glenn Hughes for me. He is annoying a.f. especially his non stop screaming like a child.
  8. Rightfully so. Without Elvis there would be no LZ. I still think that Elvis had the best voice ever, studio and live. He was on top of his game till the end.
  9. I bought many of the Elvis reissues. They have better bonus material then the LZ reissues... Btw. Most of his early records aged well. Yes, his film stuff is mostly annoying, but other than that he has tons of great stuff.
  10. I agree. I like some of Ozzy's solo stuff more than some Sabbath. Especially the Randy Rhoads records are favourites of mine. Regarding Plant, I tried to like his stuff. But I just can't. I liked Raising Sand but that is mainly due to Allison Kraus. I still like his voice though.
  11. You better buy a real guitar than autographs for that amount of money
  12. It's the same with almost every member of famous bands. Often they suck outside the band context. My favourite example besides LZ is Queen. One of my favourite bands. But non of their members has done anything great after they lost Freddie.
  13. He can sell what he wants. But we are free to critizice this. Most critics like me are simply sad he doesn't release anything substantial. This is surely money-grab.
