Listening to Led Zeppelin's BBC Sessions. Ask me anything.
I am just doing some homework for classes since I am trying to get into grad school and am listening to disc 2 now. Yes I am a Zeppelin freak.

4. No.
Maybe in overall history, but the overplaying of Zep is nothing compared to Brittany Spears etc. If you think that its bad listen to top 40 radio for 8 hours straight like I had to at this old retail job I had.

8. WRONG!!!
You're not listening, bro. Check out "Houses of the Holy" from the "Physical Grafitti" album. YEARS ahead of its time...

2. don't you just love
the British studio audience guests?How reserved right after Communication Breakdown you hear a smattering of polite applause.At one time if it wasn't Zeppelin I wasn't listening to it.When I was 18-19(around 1973/74)I would lay on m,y couch in my bachelor pad in Garwood NJ with those big bulky Koss headphones on my stoned head and would get chills listening to Robert Plantes' voice.I had all those bootleg albums back then of Zep live and even got to see them at Madison Square Garden in fact we had tickets for the 1`980 shows until we were told they were being canceled on account of Bonzos'death.Waited in line for a day at Ticketron for those friggin tickets.......

5. Me too
They played the Page/Plant "No Quarter" version of Kashmir on VH1 the other day and now I've been listening to "No Quarter" constantly.

I need to get an LP player so I can play all my Zep Vinyl!!

7. LOL, I love the solo for "Thank You" on that album
It kicks almighty ass, especially considering that beyond the main riff the song wasn't that great. :)

9. Why?
That stuff is 30 years old! There's too much new music to listen to that old crap.
