I'm not sure if I've posted this one before, but beards ahoy! They look like a happy little bunch, and JPJ definitely bathed this day! His hair looks really soft... FIN.
"Since I've Been Loving You", Led Zeppelin III
Mmm, the reverberating warmth of Jimmy Page's guitar, which sweeps, ascends, and ultimately carries this delectable blues jam. With intricate, subtle additions of Hammond organ, they create a beautifully entrancing piece of music. A true work of ART. Its so powerful, thick, and emotional... Everything I look for in music. What I love most about his playing is that identifiable tone, its sometime jagged sound, but its always pristine sophistication. Its wondrous and captivating, pulling you deeply into their world -- as Robert Plant provides a shattering vocal performance, and John Bonham rhythmically holds it all together. FUCK the squeaky bass pedal, it sounds just fine! Its so massive, and I don't mean its size. Clocking in at just over seven minutes, it doesn't seem to be extravagantly lengthy, just perfect, if not swift. But its such a rich number, which I gobble up with intense glee. It reminds me a bit of the explosive Otis Rush, but that only adds to its splendor...
