What are you listening to now?

Sometimes it’s the simple little things in life that clear your mind. Like driving downtown to pick up a delicious pizza then going back home and they play one of the most overplayed songs from the greatest rock band ever.  All windows down and the radio blaring for everyone to hear.

Led Zeppelin were ahead of their time. I love them but, they kind of spawned lot of bands, that are not all so great. Being influenced by a band, is not always a good thing.

Been a Zeppy fan for as long as I can remember...some of those memories may be a bit fuzzy... 

 

As a young Sailor in the 70's I drove many, many a mile across country listening to Zeppy and in particular Houses of the Holy on 8 track or cassette.

I bought my first Zeppy album (vinyl) in '69. Been hooked since.

Still great music.

This band has been around a while but I've just discovered them. I dig it.

That’s some pretty good devil music but that phone ringing in the beginning pissed me right off.  I was literally about to stomp mine or throw it where it would never be found again.

Huge Zep head here. Heartbreaker is 1 of several of their songs that sounds normal and easy but is a musical feat. Kashmir, black dog, levee breaks, Achilles last stand, all insane musical works that wouldn't be possible without the talent of that group, especially Bonzo.

while I was playing it, my wife walking in the room asking if that was her phone or mine ringing.

Been running Metallica in the background as I work. Real plus of being home. Newer stuff, but I like the speed of a lot of this album. 

Like @FUJIMO I do like my Zeppelin though. I think Immigrant Song is one of my favs. Got to introduce Stairway to Heaven to a guitar player back in college. His parents were really religious and he knew nothing but hymns. At the end he looked like a fat kid you had just given a free All you can eat sundae bar ticket to. I probably corrupted the kid. lol

 

Then when I want some thing heavier

Its been a Sprung Monkey sort of day 

 

[Garufa]

This is completely NSFW but it’s killer bluegrassish, Americana type, not sure exactly what, lol.

Got to say everytime I see this thread pop up, I remember how much I miss Mars. 

Listening to nothing in particular.

Still love me some Johnny Winter. Just listen to the guitar in this

[Whisper]

It's always a good day for listening to Johnny Winter.  Here's a great example.  From about 1:20 onward, I doubt there's anyone else who could every play this.

 

[Alleycat72]

A book on asymmetric warfare. 

[Raoul]

ABB. Fillmore.

[Glenn]

Here's another one with some great licks starting about 1:08. I'll stop now. I could do this all day

[Whisper]

Just one more....
