The winner of my last Battle of the Bands was Pomplamoose beating Weezer 4 to 1. Pomplamoose does mostly covers so no celebratory post this time around. Anyway this time around I am getting the Led out with Led Zeppelin's Black Dog.
Muhammad Ali was perhaps the first athlete I remember. Muhammad Ali is considered to be the greatest boxer of all time. He had a career record of 56-5 with 37 knock outs.
Here is his second fight with Leon Spinks, where he won the Heavyweight title for the third time.
Last year my theme was reptiles, this year my theme will be athletes and teams. It isn't that much of a stretch for me as I tend to blog about an athlete or team from time to time. I missed the official theme reveal as April kind of snuck up on me.
Are you doing the A to Z Challenge? If so what is your theme?
Well tomorrow is Day 1
Today Eric Clapton turns 77 today. In celebration we are just going to stick with music.
"Louise" with the Yardbirds live in 1964
My last post was announcing the death of Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins. Today's theme is your choice, and mine is to continue celebrating the Foo Fighters.
"Best of You"
The drummer of the Foo Fighters has passed away at the age of 50. Confirmed by the band and numerous media reports. Cause of death hasn't been revealed.
In this clip the Foo Fighters are joined by John Paul Jones and Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin. Dave Grohl plays drum and Taylor gets to front the band on "Rock and Roll."
Spring begins later this month. That reason helped me with picking ELO's "Mr. Blue Sky" as the song for this month's Battle of the Bands.
