Battle of the Bands Results: In Honor of Little Richard Zeppelin beats The Boss Handly

Sadly the world lost Little Richard. My battle of the bands play tribute to him by selecting his song "Long Tall Sally." Bruce might be the boss but he is not the mighty Led Zeppelin. Zeppelin wasn't just Robert Plant. This might not be his finest vocal performance as one reader commented:

"I think this could be titled 'Battle Of The Screamers'"

As noted by another reader:

"They have Jimmy Page... "

The band also had John Bonham and John Paul Jones which together made them Led Zeppelin. It is all math 4 greats better than 1. The votes agreed 5 to 1.

Let's celebrate:

 

                                                  

                                                  "Celebration Day"

"Over the Hills and Far Away"

"Rock and Roll"

Hope you enjoyed! I will have another battle on the 1st!

Happy Birthday Jimmy Page!

Jimmy Page turned 73 today. I figure his birthday was a good excuse to get the Led Out and more. Jimmy Page is a good way to start out my blog in 2017 in earnest.


Let's start out with The Yardbirds.."Shapes of Things"

Then a few years after Zeppelin ended Jimmy playing some Chopin..

"All The King's Horses" from The Firm...

Ah the solo album.."Wasting My Time"

Coverdale/Page..

"When the World Was Young" Page and Plant..

With the Black Crowes,,"Oh Well" an old Peter Green Fleetwood Mac cover...

Somethings missing.."Heartbreaker"

Then and more recent,,reunited Zeppelin.."For Your Life"

Vintage "Rock and Roll"

Hope you enjoy and see you around soon!
