LED ZEP

[william_kent]

are they your fave?

Led Zep gets a bit complicated

1969 bootlegs can't be my fave because at that time they hadn't unleashed tunes like "immigrant song". "whole lotta love", "in my time of dying", etc

how many boots ya got?

how many boots ya got?

lol, I failed hard at math

 

[william_kent]

it gets hard to work out, every LED ZEP concert is at least 2 to 3 CD ( 70 min per cd ) and I have tubs of CDs of LZ gigs

one of my favourite books EVER is the LED ZEP biog, HAMMER OIF THE GODS

Bonham shitting in a groupie shoe story remains ingrained

is this the book with the story of them sticking a piece of a shark in a girls pussy?

the avant garde sax player was endorsed by Julian Cope but I got into trouble when a boomkat related label rejected his next album

RED SNAPPERS

 

[william_kent]

HAMMER OF THE GODS

evil stories

Jimmy Page

( needs to be brought to court for NONCE crimes = just saying )

 

[william_kent]

Bonham and that psycho manager Peter Grant are both dead, John Paul Jones is a blank slate, Plant has suffered enough, so JIMMY PAGE MUST ATONE FOR THE SINS

 

[william_kent]

there is a funny story in one LED ZEP biography where a groupie gives JOHN PAUL JONES a book and she says "this is everything I know about you" and he opens it and it is ALL BLANK PAGES

no personality? or extremely guarded?

they're into lord of the rings so they're alright by me

what I learnt from the daughter of "maybe a sex worker" is that fish insertion is "better" if it is tail first, the other way around, head first, the scales get bent back and are difficult to remove, can cause havoc

I could tell you tale or two at the next great dissensus meetup @catalog @Murphy

I might fling some accusations around but I won't post anything that will damage me financially, you'll have to buy me some rum to hear the real dirt

 

[Mr. Tea]

I laughed so much when Robbie Williams defeated Jimmy Page in a neighbourhood feud by playing BLACK SABBATH at full volume

The Williams-Page Noise Wars story is funny as hell, of course, but I don't understand why Page would be bothered by Black Sabbath specifically. Members of the two bands were good mates back in the day, and Bonham was best man at Tony Iommi's wedding.

There was even a Led Sabbath jam session featuring all eight of them, which was apparently recorded, although for whatever reason it's never been authorised for release.

This is the one for me.

one of my favourite books EVER is the LED ZEP biog, HAMMER OIF THE GODS

a couple of years ago, pre=lockdown. I bought a led zeppelin rerelease from FOPP and the teenage metalhead girl behind the counter quizzed me 'what is your favourite led zeppelin tune?" and my immediate answer was



Immigrant Song

VALHALLA I AM COMING!

Also where the line Hammer of the Gods comes from right?

Anyway not exactly into LZ but Immigrant Song is undeniable. And also as we've surely said a million times now an inspiration for Lalo Schifrin, John Carpenter. But until I read it I never made the link between Assault On Precinct 13 and IS but the second I did it seemed so fucking obvious.

Jimmy Page lives near me and has been spotted in the local shops. I heard some Led Zep blasting from a next door neighbours garden party, and it took me a while to realise I was listening to a cover band performing.
