Good morning, dear ((HUGS))
Bummer the showers missed you yesterday...I’m hoping they don’t miss us today...we could use some too.
I hear ya re:COFFEE!
No chilling for us. It’s going to be back close to 100 by the end of the weekend. Blech!
Stay cool! :)

((HUGS))Good morning, Beach, LUV W.
How's it going?
Good morning Luv and (((HUGS))) to you.
John Paul Jones doesn’t get enough love. I loved his keyboard work. I heard Plante “blame” Jones for In Through the Out Door. But I love ITTOD. The sound was a welcome change to Zep’s sound, and still holds up well today. It’s a shame that they broke up at that point, because they were going in an exciting new direction.
——In My Time of Dying-11:04,
Carouselambra-10:32,——
Two of my favorites, and completely different.
Carouselambra could be three minutes shorter, but I guess they were short of material and had to fill the album. Too bad, because it never gets any radio play.
IMTOD has to be their toughest, hardest rocking tune. Amazing what they could do with a simple blues song. Amazing too, that it was completed in a handful of takes, since they could be very sloppy live.
Good morning, St_Thomas_Aquinas
Thanks for sharing that.
Do you have a song in mind when you think of JPJ?
Humm, don't recognize this one
HAPPY FRIDAY, Edward!
