Dear Brad,
First off, GO SUCK AN EGG YOU PINHEAD!
LZ not cool anymore? The BluRay of their reunion concerts sold quite well, and the concerts themselves sold out in record time.
LZ was NOT “just another band.” Like the Beach Boys and The Beatles, LZ was a band that experimented and evolved. Each album was different, in some cases REALLY different. For instance, compare LZ2 to LZ3, in particular the second side. The same band that played The Immigrant Song played Tangerine and Hangman. And they continued their experimentation and evolutions throughout the entire life of the band.
Face it, you (Brad) are a pinhead loser who knows nothing about music. And you probably smell funny.
Mark
MarkL,
Happy to see that you are respecting the free republic rules about not calling names. Your inability to disagree with someone with personal attacks shows how week your grasp of adult discourse is.
I never said that Led Zeppelin wasn’t popular. Being popular does not equal being cool. Yes Zeppelin was cooler than Kiss but not as cool as The Velvet Underground or Iggy and the Stooges.
As for knowing nothing about music you are wildly off base. Since you challenge my competence concerning music I will list SOME of my resume:
Own over 10,000 vinyl LPs, 8000 CDs and have a barn full of 2inch Master tapes from the RECORDING STUDIO I OWN AND OPERATE
aged 7-21 played classical piano and jazz piano
aged 19-23 Disc Jockey (very successful by the way)
aged 20 produced my first record
Aged twenty two - opened my first of three record labels.
All three labels had remarkable successes, including something called “gold and Platinum records”
Toured professionally as a guitarist and organist for about 15 years
produced over seventy records
Study music composition in college ( it was my minor)wrote a few hundred things called “songs” I could continue but I am not sure you are qualified to read the books or would know what “RIAA Rock Producer of the year means.
Since you have mounted the throne of judgment I would love to hear your music qualifications. Let’s hear it buddy....
