Been following the Vault since Feb of '06. I love it. But I have one beef. I want to know what's been added recently. Used to be able to do it but now we get Recently Featured. Oh great! A new show by my favorite band! Nope, the comments go back to last year. Heard it. Throw us old timers a bone and let us see what's new. At least let us sort by ...

3 years later and people are still riled up about my original post. I love the statement, ''There has never been three musians that ever assembled at one time that had more talent and ability than Jones, Bonham, and Page...'' Ever? John, Paul, George? Eric, Jack, Ginger? Ever? No jazz trio? No dudes who rocked with Mozart? Louis Armstrong, Johnny ...

Almost two years have gone by since I opened this thread. 164 replies. Over 133,000 views. And Led Zeppelin is still over rated. But it's been fun. I wonder if any artist related thread has more views or comments. (I use the term ''artist'' loosely.) Scanning through the comments, I have to respond to one thing: the theft of song writing ...

You just threatened to kill me. Hey moderator, this Led head just threatened to kill me. I go away for a few months and I get to come back to death threats? Sweet. Death threats...All so you could claim Jones as the 20th best bass player? (Presence not included.) You can't believe I dare to question Plant's singing?  You missed the point. ...

Finally, someone gets specific about ripping off songs. So Clapton stole Strange Brew. Do you mean the style is copied or do you mean that there's an Albert King song out there with lyrics that and/or melody were lifted? If so what is that song called? One of the things the first few Cream and Bluesbreakers albums did was steer me towards the ...

How not to be Led Zeppelin. No chipmunk singers. Rape is not cool. Unless you’re Focus and you’re doing Hocus Pocus, no yodeling. When you’ve got a good groove going, do not stop to show off. Give credit when you “borrow” more than a lick or a line. Don’t write about elves and gnomes because they don’t write about you. Popularity does not ...

I would buy anything that Jack ''the Holy Ghost'' would put out just to hear that bass such as... Sweeping Up the Spotlight - Jefferson Airplane Live at the Fillmore East 1969 Release Date: February 13, 2007RCA Legacy recordingsHas the Vault goosed the Airplane into new live stuff the same way it did with Neil Young?1 ...

HarryOgre,   I looked for terms and conditions on the LZ thread that indicated it was for the exclusive use of rabid fans only. I didn’t see anything that said I had to say only positive things. Please don’t go to the Madonna thread and criticize. Unless you want to. The good people at the Vault opened a forum and said, “go” so I

I have a long term substituting gig with some 11th graders and today they were bashing Hendrix as over-rated when compared to Yngwie Malmsteen and Steve Vai. I tried to explain his importance as an innovator and incredibly soulful guitarist but these uh, scholars wouldn’t hear of it. “But Mr. H, those guys shred.” Rather than telling them ...

Peter Grant, Overeducated? As compared to? I went to several schools. I won’t list them because that bugs you.   Resume flashing? Just putting things in context for the people like you who are curious about the genesis of my opinions. Oops, big words. Why I think stuff that I think. You make several references that might indicate

Oldhippy,   Head up my…? With my old back I’d never be able to get my head anywhere near my ass. There’s another post on this thread that ripped me for trying to bring some context by listing some of my rock and roll resume. Yours is impressive and implies a thorough British LZ background. As I’ve said, I saw them only twice and ...

Rory Yes no man is an island but as the Jefferson Airplane said “he’s a peninsula.” Once again, just because something is popular doesn’t mean it is necessarily good. That’s like saying that the popular kids in high school are the best because they’re popular. The majority isn’t always wise. (59,054,087 people can’t be wrong can they?)
