Mothership


This is a wee bit embarrassing, but today, at damned near fifty years old, I bought Led Zeppelin's Mothership. Wow. How wonderful it is to have great hearing and still have the uncontrollable urge to crank it up so loud the glass in the door vibrates. The funny thing is, I know every song and none of them sound the same. There is no mixing, no digitizing and no synthesizing. These guys are playing real instruments. This is when I miss my Camaro!! I loved to blast the music with the T-tops off while speeding to my next destination or nowhere in particular (gas was much cheaper then). Led Zeppelin makes me want to dance barefoot. I saw Jimmy Page in concert some years ago and didn't sit down all night. Such talent.
