Wonder where Bonham got the opening drum rolls to Rock & Roll? Look no further:

Wonder where they stole 'Whole Lotta Love' from? (Plus Steve Marriott was a far better vocalist than Plant!)

These are just two examples, I'm sure the music lovers on this board can point out many, many more!
Re: What a fantastic guitarist Jimmy Page was
This is more my type of thing. Great guitar player with a fantastic British cover band.

Sludge
I discovered the phenomenon of 'Trump Metal' on Youtube last night:
This is just one of the videos in that vein:

Re: What a fantastic guitarist Jimmy Page was
He is one of the greats.
Learnt his trade as a session musician and played with some of the biggest names around in the studio before becoming a star in his own right.
Maybe in true rock and roll style he did a deal with the devil as he was hugely into the life and times of the occultist Alistair Crowley. If so Robbie Williams may be a worried man. :biggrin:

Me too. I hate his voice. Thin and shrieky.

Re: What a fantastic guitarist Jimmy Page was
There are a few that actually work well as good songs. This is a good one from an Australain band called the Death Set that put out a whole album of mash-ups. At 1:41. 52 Girls vs. Shimmy Shimmy Ya (B52's vs. O.D.B.)

Re: What a fantastic guitarist Jimmy Page was
And my personal favorite. Eve (feat. Swizz Beats) vs Radiohead by the Hood Internet.

Was it consciously ripped though? When I used to play on my guitar as a kid I used to play something and think, Christ this is amazing! Then few hours later get told “Yeh, that’s a song already”.
Either way every band takes influence of others I just wish they’d credit it rather than dispute it for the sake of money

He lives in Holland Park these days, I seen him do a guest spot at Roy Harpers 70th bash at the festival hall about 5 - 6 years ago Harper was a big influence on LZ.

The Firm were a pretty damn fine band. Saw them from the front row at Hammersmith Odeon in December '84 and they were certainly better than anyone else live, around at that time.
Caught them again in May '85 at the dreadful Birmingham NEC (my one and only time at that awful aircraft hanger of a venue) and they were still shit-hot.
You just know that any band with Paul Rodgers in is going to be da dogs bollux, apart from his stint in the perennially over-rated Queen
The Firm and mean Business were two of the best albums of '84 and '85. Having said that, thee wasn't much opposition around at the time

One of my favourite Roy Harper albums back in the day was 'Whatever Happened To Jugula?' the album he released in 1985, a few years after Zep split up. Have you not heard this, Sludgey?
