Analogman Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 He moved it - and re-posted several things. I actually have a whole bunch of those bookmarked at home. If nothing else, I like to read the notes about the releases. I suppose that guy puts some people off, due to the fact that he does FLAC, and not Mp3 (which is what you usually find on these blogs), but I think he is doing a good thing. I just don't have the patience to mess with all those links. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

froggie Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 this'll be good!  http://www.thespoof.com/news/spoof.cfm?headline=s2i57203  LONDON - The manager of Led Zeppelin Christopher Dutchmill has stated that in lieu of going on tour, the heavy metal British band will instead record a Christmas album. Dutchmill stated that the reason that LZ decided against going on tour was due to lead singer Robert Plant stating that he would not be able to sound like he did in the 70s.Plant said that he had to be honest and state that he could just no longer hit the extremely high notes like he did 40 years ago. Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Paige said that he had to agree with his band mate Plant. Both band members said that they knew that they could still rake in millions but that it would not be fair for fans to pay to see Led Zeppelin and then end up getting a watered down version of The Cowsills. Plant said that he had spoken with Adam Lambert about taking his place. But Lambert is already set to go on tour with Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young as his opening act. Jimmy Paige remarked that LZ had in fact auditioned three other singers to replace Plant. The first was Jonathan Skeffington lead singer of the Manchester band The Ovulating Camels of The Kalahari. Skeff did a nice job of singing and he had no problem hitting the very high notes. But his only setback is that he has a rather dangerous obsessive compulsion of building terroristic type bombs and then selling them in the Manchester underworld market. The next singer Gavin Bristol front man for the Chichester band The Raging Female Hormones of Amy The Winehouse also did an excellent job of singing but his one draw back was his 40-plus marijuana cigarettes a day habit. And the third individual that Led Zeppelin auditioned was an amazingly fabulous girl singer named Rainbow Middlesex, lead singer for the heavy metal band The Bosomy Bitch of North Boarhunt & The G-Spot Sluts Band. The beautiful big-breasted 20-year-old lass has a fantastic voice and she sounds exactly like a female version of Robert Plant. The band members, including Plant, all decided that Rainbow would make the best replacement for the lead singer spot. The only stumbling block is the fact that there is currently a warrant out for her arrest. It seems that Rainbow has recently been involved in three train robberies on The Whale Island, Portsmouth Harbour, & Stubbington Railroad. An official for the WIPH&S Railroad said that the gang from North Boarhunt, which was led by Miss Middlesex was also wanted for bank robberies in Hardway, Bridgemary, and Funtley. So Led Zeppelin manager Christopher Dutchmill and the band members decided to record an album of Christmas classics which Robert (Plant) would not have any trouble hitting since they are all in the middle register. Led Zeppelin's Christmas Album is entitled: CHRISTMAS SONGS FROM THE BLIMP BLOKES 1. Santa Claus Isn't Coming To Town 2. Deck The Halls And Pubs 3. Frosty The Snow Ho 4. Joy To The World Of Wine, Weed, And Whites 5. Silent Night - Don't Ask, Don't Tell 6. I Saw Mommy Doing Santa Claus 7. Feliz Navagation 8. Jingle Bell Rock And Roll 9. Sarah Palin Shot At But Missed Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer 10. I'm Dreaming Of A White Line Christmas   Led Zeppelin's Christmas album is due in stores in late November. Or it can be purchased direct from Robert Plant at www.blimpblokes.mic Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jones was miffed that he was never contacted. That's it. And then Robert said in an interview or somewhere, that he was down on one knee (tying his shoe) and apologized to him.

I forget where that was said. nah, this is where Page and Plant were spinning general stuff about music. the JPJ came along and thanked the fans, the manager peter grant, and "his friends for finally remembering is phone number!" jimmy looked embarrassed, robert was rubbing his hands, licking his lips thinking "i'll kill you later". then jason and zoe bonham came on and the mood changed.

Analogman Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I listened to the Jimmy Page interview yesterday. There is not a whole lot of talk, but you do get to hear those Led Zeppelin BBC shows. OF course, you can now buy them on CD. I have read elsewhere that he plans to do some new music this coming year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moss Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009  Jimmy Page has confirmed that he plans to be performing a whole lotta new solo material on a upcoming 2010 tour. In a recent interview, televised by Sky News, Page revealed that he's been working on some new music since the Led Zeppelin reunion gig held at London's O2 arena in December 2007. "We're running up to Christmas now and next year I have every intention of playing music live and manifesting it," Page said during the interview. "I've got the music waiting, and that's what i'll be doing. It's been two years since the O2, so it's time to do that." There is no word yet on a release date for the new material nor are there any confirmed tour dates other than the newly announced show in Beijing on April 17th 2010.  Beijing?

Analogman Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 If anyone has a notion to get these discs, this a good place to get them: Led Zeppelin: Cabala 1963-1988 (8 CD Set) 8 CDs covering Zed Zeppelin and relevant pre-Led Zeppelin material, dating from roughly 1963 through 1988.Quality is variable, but all very listenable. I had these before in crappy Mp3 quality, so I think I am going to grab them. The files are FLAC files. I generally don't like fooling with Rapidshare links, but there is some good stuff on these discs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
