Gainsbarre Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 On one occasion I had an opportunity to approach JPJ but he was with his wife and all three daughters. They'd come upstairs to congratulate Diamanda on that night's gig. If I'd been the wanker Gainsbarre apparently thinks I am I could have asked right then "Hey, John did you accompany Herman's Hermits on a tour of Germany in '67 to take a break from session work?" This I did not do. It was their moment. However, I have found if you've got something particular interesting to discuss with them most people are receptive, to include "stars". Oh Stevie, you're such a sweetheart... Very humble of you to do that, an important man such as yourself to chose another moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Oh Stevie, you're such a sweetheart... Very humble of you to do that, an important man such as yourself to chose another moment. I thought so. By the way, the question has been put forward to him. Everybody wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangani Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 as for Hendrix-he never lived to see the full greatness of the band, if he had I could see him revising his opinion somewhat. I'm pretty sure I have read other things about Hendrix saying that by 1970 he had changed his attitude to Zeppelin and actually liked them. Most of his early comments about Zeppelin were before LZ II came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peppermint Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 What I do know is This thread began about Rundgrens current comments of Robert Plant--and the recent news reporting of them --It had nothing to do with comments that may or not have been made 5,10,20 or 30 something years ago.Nor was it a question of can you tell me who in the music industry other then Rundgren has ever said crap about Led Zeppelin or its members.For the record Rolling Stone in history past was not cool to them ,however that is not now,In case you were not aware Led Zeppelin was just on a Rolling Stone cover ? Never Mind the Bollocks! You need to grow up ! you can`t play oohhh poor me , you misunderstood.Buddy when you made an itemized list from history long gone past and then came back with more rubish you burned yourself even more . arguing again eddy!!!!!!!!

deluxe Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Hi all, I find it sad in many ways that anyone talking about anything has to put someone or somethiing down.It kind makes one want to vomit! As far as Jimi goes,I always saw him as this humble soul except when he was on stage! I read this a looog time ago in Guitar,Guitar Player,etc,etc,....it was a loooog time ago,.. Q: What do you think about Led Zeppelin? J: I don't think them too much,but Jimmy Page is a really good guitar player. I have this interview somewhere, but after Hendrix says he doesn't think much of Led Zeppelin he qualifies it by saying something to the effect that he likes them, but just doesn't think about them (as in not analysing their music. Hendrix studied musicians and had interesting positive perspectives considering his own prowess ). Also he said he liked Pages playing and that he was a very good guitar player, as stated.
