Good sh#t, Wally!

Mr. Brennan, the Black Crows flat out kick ass~ They were an obvious perfect fit to do Zep covers with 'The Man', Jimmy.

I cannot get enough of the album they did together...

Jimmy was great, not for his fretting ability, there were many faster and more adept.

He was a genius of a song composer! He was the best. Hands down at laying guitar music down. Sometimes it was simple, or quaint, but it always shook you.

Jimmy Page rocks!!

As much as I love Zeppelin, I do think they should have given proper credit for all the lyrics and music they didn't write (but shamelessly and knowingly took credit for). I know there's nothing new under the sun, and everything's a remix, but still, Page is totally full of shite. Here's about 20 minutes of examples:

Etc.

They were still a hell of a cover band.

my favorite quote about Zep was from Ted Nugent. When discussing the influence of British bands and Zep, Nugent replied "Led Zeppelin is about as British as a f#cking Ford".

There is some video out there of little Jimmy Page on an old black and white TV show in Britain. Some kind of talent show, little Jimmy and his guitar, classic!

'We're gonna groove' from how the west was won is probably my favorite. That footage from the 1970 concert at royal albert hall is seminal. I'm one of those who believes that early zep was waaaaay better than later zep. I think they peaked when IV came out - 1972. Just listen to Plant's voice over the years. After this things went downhill. There are exceptions...I happen to really love 'in the light'. Of course Kashmir is awesome. Other than that most of their stuff was thin after 1973 or so.

If you get a chance listen to hey joe from the band of joy (pre zep) - best Plant voice ever.
