It was a kind of baiting section of the post, anyway. I'm pretty sure mr. x likes Zep too, waiting for him to weigh in and berate me...<BR/><BR/>all I'll say is, when it comes to Led Zep, "I Don't Wanna Hear It"<BR/>how's that for a punx reply?<BR/><BR/>anyway, this wasn't what this post is about... It's entirely possible to enjoy the Black Keys - or at least, <I>Thickfreakness</I> and <I>Chulahoma</I> in particular - without worrying about whether you like Led Zeppelin or not.<BR/><BR/><BR/>...gabbagabbaheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07764368059568550318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305962566578166600.post-18466052521253711692008-01-22T16:20:00.000+00:002008-01-22T16:20:00.000+00:00crass is good. we need crass comments and behavior...crass is good. we need crass comments and behavior at times. otherwise things get too static and no one is challenged.<BR/><BR/>though i have to side with john dough on this one. I freaking love Led Zeppelin. I always have, and i always will. My mom bought me Led Zep IV when i was in elementary school, cuz she knew i liked music alot and she thought i would like it.<BR/><BR/>Led Zeppelin is one of the main reasons i became such a music lover. Now, how i got from Zep to Slayer to Fugazi to Swing Kids.... I'll never know, but then again i never looked back.blend77https://www.blogger.com/profile/15363982891479614565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305962566578166600.post-84699014707000527362008-01-21T23:21:00.000+00:002008-01-21T23:21:00.000+00:00john doe - heh, the problems of being facetious! I...john doe - heh, the problems of being facetious! I don't condemn all white boy blues (to say white people can't play the blues is, frankly, racist) but I just don't like that part of it represented (as the best known, most successful, influential, etc...) by Led Zeppelin.<BR/>but thanks for the compliment, I really enjoyed writing this piece.<BR/><BR/>mr x, i/blend - good to hear people digging the sounds of Junior Kimbrough/Junior Kimbrough as represented by the Black Keys. A little slice of my listening habits that I keep coming back to...<BR/><BR/>also, the phrase "raping" the blues, wasn't my own invention, I heard it somewhere before. It's a bit crass, admittedly.gabbagabbaheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07764368059568550318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305962566578166600.post-17117740456999992212008-01-21T22:54:00.000+00:002008-01-21T22:54:00.000+00:00you have a surprisingly well-written blog, I can t...you have a surprisingly well-written blog, I can tell that you put time, thought, and care into it.<BR/>A pleasue to read, even if I do disagree with you about Led Zeppelin. Surely if you do not condemn all white boy blues you cant single out Zep on that account and condemn them for "raping" the blues.john doehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10744383365435535062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305962566578166600.post-4452814023722318172008-01-21T19:31:00.000+00:002008-01-21T19:31:00.000+00:00hey man, i really liked the Chulahoma EP!!! great ...hey man, i really liked the Chulahoma EP!!! great stuff!<BR/><BR/>thanks so much! ive been craving more tunefulness lately...blend77https://www.blogger.com/profile/15363982891479614565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305962566578166600.post-7397090194332292172008-01-20T14:21:00.000+00:002008-01-20T14:21:00.000+00:00alright!cheers i've been really interested to hear...alright!<BR/>cheers i've been really interested to hear the originals since i heard chulahoma.<BR/>'preach bruvAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
