You still got link to the para-para video with the chick spewing out birds and stuff? It was pretty good tbh.

he loves eurodance, who cares

You don't like eurodance? You need an x-ray immediately to know how big a chunk inside you you're missing

I appreciate you are a blues fan and don't like Led Zep remaking a lot of blues tracks, but they radically transformed all of the tracks they covered to create something very different and at the time quite new.

do a little research jack. I think zep was good for what they were. What irks me is that they used to write written by Robert plant and Jimmy page...which incidentally have been changed since due to almost constant litigation for copyright infringements. we aren't only talking older songs either, Zeppelin released plagiarized tracks sometimes only months after the originals...not much of anything was changed, they were straight up copies...yet on the album they were still marked as written by plant and page.

google led zeppelin plagiarism, there are some neat youtubes that play tracks side to side to show you this. I can't post them on my phone.

led zep introduced arena rock, and like the Beatles it was marketing over talent.

I'd write a novel on this but phone typing hurts. read a bit on this subject j, not only do I think you will find it interesting, but you might he surprised.

This thread is officially the most retarded place on the internet.

yeah, you just posted in it...duh.

I wouldn't say that. Aside from Ringo, all of the members of the Beatles were incredibly talented. Especially John and George.

of course, but even the band members themselves got tired of the act they had to put on. Paul for instance stated during an interview before a show here last year that being in the Beatles was the most musically depressing time in his life because his creativeness was hampered by being contractually forced to do music he found extremely simple and uninspiring.

read up on this too...music history is a very interesting subject.

led zep was huge in terms of merchandising and non music revenue. kiss essentially stole the business model and took it to the next level with no talent. gene Simmons said it himself.

and Paul Rogers is the best brit blues singer from that time. Free was much better musically than zep.

btw George Harrison? really? lol.

Yeah but what about Wings? Answer that fuck head!

sure I do, just spewing some poor insults because he dissed 005, that's all

not a huge fan but the "drop stop" riff in let me roll it always gets me. I saw Paul last year and for a man that age he can still do it. he played 3 hours. didn't like it all but it was a good show.

Originally posted by zyklon-jay btw George Harrison? really? lol.

Yes George. He was by far the most talented guitarist of the group. He may not have had the talent for songwriting as the others, but he was definitely one of the most musically talented members. I believe he was recently voted 11 on the Rolling Stone list of top 100 guitarists of all time.

And I'm really not surprised at Paul saying that. I would take it with a grain of salt though. I actually took a music history class my senior year that was completely dedicated to the Beatles. Granted, their early work was rather formulaic as they were playing what the teenage girls wanted to hear, but they absolutely grew immensely as a band throughout the 10+ years they were together. Compare stuff from With the Beatles to stuff from Revolver or The White Album. I wouldn't call their later stuff simple or uninspiring by any means.

Paul was just a complete control freak, which ultimately was a larger factor to their breaking up than Yoko Ono was. Paul wanted to control everything they did, even to the point where he was caught going in and re-recording Ringo's drum parts when they were recording The White Album.

I'll give you the simple and uninspiring nature of their early work, but their breaking up had nothing to do with their music being uninspiring or simple.

Paul is meant to be a solo artist. He just doesn't work in a band.

This list makes me wonder what current popular artist/band will still be remembered after 30 yesars. Can you think of anything?

I think I'll go listen to some Madeon.

Ok, I've never heard 005. I just like 009 a lot. Disc one anyway.

I don't like the entire record but there are a few chilled out tracks on it I really really like.

Jay, there are images on Discogs of the original vinyls from 1969 that clearly show Led Zeppelin crediting the original writers where known. I've looked at the Youtube videos and they only reiterate what I already knew - they covered a lot of old tracks and often radically changed them. The only example I can find of them plagiarising a contemporary track was Stairway To Heaven sounding a bit like a Spirit track from two years earlier, and even then they still altered it somewhat.

If you want to post some specific examples, go ahead and I'll admit there's shit I don't know, but I'm not doing the research for you.
