I saw them at The Rose Palace in Pasadena, CA May 2nd, 1969 with:
Julie Driscoll – Brian Auger and the Trinity
The Elvin Bishop Blues Band
The Chambers BrothersThe four band did a full set, took an intermission and all four came back for another (different) set.
The stage had no curtains and no back stage area. The were no chairs, it was…Read More
Great story. Their first album from back then was killer. Zeppelin still rules!
Last night I watched “Becoming Led Zeppelin.” My wife stayed through the entire movie, but my kids didn’t. While I enjoyed it — and I’d pretty much watch anay official documntary on one of my favorite bands of all time — I thought it was just okay as a documentary.

Also, as we learned from the doc and I witnessed firsthand, in the second set they played Moby D!ck, Heartbreaker and Whole Lotta Love. The world did not know of those songs yet, but they moved me then and of course in due time I immediately recognized them when LZ II came out.

Zeppelin would have been great to see at any point, but the excitement of seeing them back then had to be incredible. I’ve seen a few bands before they became big, but the biggest one that I saw that blew me away with a new sound was Rage Against the Machine. They weren’t even booked at the club I saw them at, it was a surprise show (it was a cool…Read More

I saw them shortly after LZ III at the L.A. Forum too. We were three rows back from the floor at the middle on the side.

One of my favorite songs of all time, redone by Brian Wilson in 2009.

Very sad news. If I have a “favourite”, it’s him. Saw him with the BB’s in 1980. and several times with his own band since 2002. Al Jardine will be doing some shows with some of his band later this year. Brian was clearly a reluctant genius (“I’m just a hard working guy”). He had a warm soul, a lovely sense of humour and zero ego.

RIP Sly Stone. He brought us some awesome music.
Many years ago, Sly lived in and performed in Chicago at local clubs. A friend of mine, a very talented female rock singer in the mold of Janis Joplin, had sometimes sang with the band an dated Sly’s drummer.
Unfortunately, Sly had long battled addiction, and it had, at various times, led…Read More

I’m about to share another song and prove I really meant it when I shared this meme!

I know, I know, this one is controversial, but it gave me a laugh.

I’m just getting back in the saddle after managing to get a prolapse in my lower back, and fracture in the middle of my back at the start of February..
I’m doing some mixing, and some shouting on a Citizen Regen song these past weeks.
I’m still not able to sit at my studio desk for more than 45-60 mins a day for the time being.
Plus trying to…Read More2 Comments
Sorry to hear what you’re dealing with, but I’m glad to know that you’re on the mend. @bapu was one of our earliest LM members, and is a great guy and, of course, a talented musician. I put one his songs with Fizzy Pickle on the first LM Mixtape and plan on doing a Mixtape of heavier rock music with Citizen Regen on it.…Read More

I bought Wave Alchemy Triaz a couple of days ago and already nearly done with a song. I haven’t recorded more than 8 bar loops for over a year so I’m pretty pleased. Inspired.
I’m also totally pissed off that I bought the Caelum Audio sample bundle. Total crap.bapu posted in the group Open Mic (Open Discussion)
Citizen Regen is working on the 2nd part of “concept” song that may well be over 45 minutes long if not more.

45 minutes or more? I’m a huge Yes fan. Their longest song is around 24 minutes. ELP’s Karn Evil 9 is around 29 and a half minutes. 45 minutes???-Wow!!! Be sure to share it in the Song forum. I realize that it doesn’t get a lot of traffic at this point, but our community is growing, and I’m fully committed to that forum. Also,, I plan on…Read More

What are you working on lately? Are you writing something? Recording something? Are you bringing aboard some new hardware? Learning some new software? Share what you’re up to!

I’ll start. I’m more than halfway through a cover of The Beatles’ “Dear Prudence.” I’m hoping to complete it this weekend.
Now that Studio One appears to be working well for me, I am re-learning the DAW while also learning the Synthesizer V version 2 (vocal AI) that I just acquired. Studio One is great. and I think Synth V can do a nice vocal performance if I can stop rewriting the melody/lyrics.

You know a $450 million US-valued software company’s forum isn’t important to them when it’s outsourced to a SasS company and the server is down on a regular basis. It was down a lot of the day today.
Let your friends know about LinkedMusicians, including friends over at Cakewalk Forums, which I suspect won’t be operating very much longer.…Read More

Ed, the first rock record I ever purchased was Led Zeppelin III when I was around 7 years old. I literally wore out the grooves on “Since I’ve Been Loving You” and “Friends” because I played them so much. And I still have that original album with the worn out grooves in my basement and its replacement. Yet, while I’ve turned my wife and kids on to…Read More
