Over time I have become increasingly convinced that Kashmir is one of the great masterworks of Western Civilization. Yes I am a proud Zeppelin fanboy given to flights of hyperbole. Getting to know this great song is like peeling back the layers of an onion. One consistent thread for me with this song is the deft, subtle nature of the arrangement for strings and horns. The more I listen to it, the more maddening it is to precisely separate which instruments are weaving in and around the drums, bass, and guitar. Being a big Beatles fan, I had an epiphany a few years ago when I realized

*****NOTE: I am new to this forum; I am NOT new to anything Led Zeppelin. Please, I ask you to ignore the first part of that sentence, and consider the second. Appreciated. ****** ***The Song Remains the Same Complete Re-EDIT On Way! *** [Note]: Individual evaluation only, not a means of piracy; this will NOT be distributed in any such way; again, my individual evaluations I've always preferred original TSRTS footage, be it a bootleg or 8mm. However, the actual viewing experience is rather limited by the subpar quality even terrible for 1970's cinematics. Honestly, the "film" portion -
Why John Paul Jones Won't Do Any More Solo Albums
luvlz2 posted a topic in Pre / Post-Zeppelin Forum
Why John Paul Jones Won't Do Any More Solo Albums MARTIN KIELTY l September 6, 2019 John Paul Jones was in a positive state of mind when he announced his debut album, Zooma. Released in 1999, the former Led Zeppelin member hoped his instrumental LP would lead to a return to major-league touring and also to further studio projects. And while it did, it wasn't a direct route, and he never got over the disappointment he encountered on the road. "No, no, no, I can't be arsed," he said in 2018 after being asked about further solo projects. "We toured the world, sold out sho -

Working on an anniversary piece on 'Walking Into Clarksdale' (jouro here_ and came across a really interesting exchange. Dean Goodman talked to Page & Plant in a dual interview and posed the question: "I UNDERSTAND YOU APPROACHED JOHN PAUL JONES THIS TIME, BUT HE TURNED YOU DOWN?" (caps his, not mine) Robert and Jimmy did their typical evasive attempt at humor to deflect the conversation, with the former basically saying nobody would be interested either way, Regardless, I'm curious, because I've never heard that Jonesy was even in the conversation at the time. It would have been incr

Does anyone know where I can find the original photo used in this single release cover from the Montreux show on August 7th, 1971: I've looked everywhere but the closest I can find is this one: A link would be much appreciated!!

Hello all, I will be visiting the United Kingdom this May. I want to take advantage of the trip and find places to visit that have significance in relation to Led Zeppelin. Whether it be venues they have played, places they have lived, or museums. Please let me know!

I am thinning my collection of autographed guitars (moving to smaller home) and unfortunately for me am getting rid of a Fender P-Bass that was hand signed by John Paul Jones. You can see it here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/172200305316?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 Please get in touch with any questions.

Hi all, first post! I've noticed that Robert Plant has made a drawing to support The Big Draw charity. It got me wondering, what other artwork has been created personally by the band? So thought it might be fun if everyone shared their pictures of Led Zeppelin artwork, or examples of any other art the band made outside music. By the way the bidding on the Robert Plant drawing is only at £100 at the moment, so it might be a good opportunity for any passionate Zep fans! What do you think is the story behind this drawing?

In between composition spells what with an opera and yet-to-surface projects such as the one with Finnish cellist Anssi Karttunen (among others, I'd bet), John Paul Jones took part in the Todos Santos Music Festival in Mexico on January 16, 2016. When the winter winds blow, rock gods head for the sun. http://todossantosmusicfestival.com/ This is a benefit concert for the Palapa Society of Todos Santos, A.C. http://todossantosmusicfestival.com/blog Palapa Society's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/palapasociety.org/ Here's some footage c

So most of these have been posted already, but as they accumulate, I thought it would be good to have updates and news about initiatives that the Zep lads support all organized in one place. First up is Jimmy's patronage of the wonderful Outside Edge Theatre Company. An amazing and important arts outlet: “Outside Edge produces artistically excellent work that challenges and entertains audiences at the same time as making a real difference. Edge’s work with addicts – and the ways in which their performances awaken audiences and provoke debate – is quite simply stunning.” —Jimmy Page, company p

I tried to pick songs where the bass line doesn't follow the guitar, with the exception of Black Dog of course. I included Black Dog because it is one of JPJ's riffs - thus a candidate for the best bassline. I chose Ramble On, reason being that the bassline is just so much of the song. It begins the song, and carries it through till the end. It is quite a good riff too. A very, very close second would be Achilles Last Stand. My favorite bassline, such thundering power

Could Them Crooked Vultures be up to something?
taker328 posted a topic in Pre / Post-Zeppelin Forum
Their online store just opened up again in like forever, and both Queens of the Stone Age and the Vultures Facebook page shared it. Seems kind of weird to do that when the band has been dead for almost 5 years now. Maybe something is brewing, they're gauging their audience and maybe going to work on some new music? Though it was very interesting nonetheless. https://www.facebook.com/QOTSA/posts/10153241279597806?comment_tracking=%7B%22tn%22%3A%22O%22%7D -

As anybody who's heard recordings of the 1977 tour knows, John Paul Jones (aided on some dates by John Bonham) sang the Sandy Denny sections of "Battle Of Evermore". It seems to be a somewhat controversial choice... What are yer thoughts on Jonesy's vocals? Like 'em, hate 'em, indifferent? They shoulda got somebody else? (an option I've heard a few times over the years- but in that case, who?) Cast yer vote... (FWIW I seem to flip between 'I can live with them' and 'they shoulda got somebody else'...I'm not sure anybody could do justice to SD's original vocal on the studio track, but -
John Paul Jones will present the tenth anniversary of the Mandolines de Lunel festival in France starting on the 29th of October.

So the riffs at 26 seconds in and 33 seconds for example are Page? If anyone repsonds, please feel free to send link to your source..

This would be exceptionally hard to live down... Apparently, guy gets backstage passes to TCV show, then passes out - just in time for JPJ and Dave Grohl both to happen upon him unconscious and get photos with him passed out. http://www.1031thevulcan.com/pages/jasonmack.html?article=11937953#.UsRxTDKQk0Y.facebook
