Ha! If you want an example of ripping off the blues see S.R.V. As for Jimmy page just ripping off blues musicians. I am sorry buddy while there are certain songs in the Zeppelin catalog that are based in the blues standard, Jimmy is far more diverse, and original than a simple Blues Clone. All standard blues songs, follow the same format, its part of the tradition and Zeppelin and Page were no different there except that when Zeppelin did the blues it was truly moving, as the blues greats do. The traditional Zeppelin Blues aside, I would like you to give me an earlier Blues Riff that Jimmy ripped off to make some of the classic riffs like "Whole Lotta Love", 'Immigrant Song", "The Ocean", "Dancing Days", "Achilles Last Stand', 'Kashmir", "Heart Breaker", and too many more to count Of course His songwriting invented the Rock Ballad as we know it today with "Stairway To Heaven" Find me one song that has the scope of that before its release in 1971. There are many other Epics in his catalog as well. "10 Years Gone" (with over 16 individual Guitar tracks, unheard of in its time) "The Song Remains The Same", "The Rain Song", and many more. His amazing ability at the Acoustic Songwriting format is also overlooked as well. "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You", "Black Mountain Side", "Friends", "Thats The Way", "Bron-Y-Aur Stomp", "The Battle of Evermore", "Going to California", and again to many more to count. Not only was he an amazing versatile guitarist, but an amazing Producer. His mic'ing techniques gave all of the Zeppelin Records a great, deep, and Rich sound that has not been matched to his day. Songs Like "When The Levee Breaks" and all of the other Zeppelin songs are Sonic powerhouses thanks to his Producing skills that many mimic in the music industry today. Jimmy Page's Guitarmanship was amazing because he took what the greats did before him, and invented his own standard that is truly unique and his own. His influence is so severe that every Guitarist since has shown the Influence of Jimmy Page, whether they know it or not. Sorry that you learned the hard way, but to say Jimmy Page was unoriginal is just preposterous. Who's Jimmy Page  |

hehe. So what do you do once you're "married" anyway? lol Since this is a "pretend" marriage, I think you pretend to argue about money, pretend to not go out anymore, and pretend to try to fix up all your single friends. That's about it. |

Niiiiice choices...I saw "Wicked" 3 days before Idina Menzel fell and had to leave early; my friend & I waited in the freezing sleet/rain (it was January) and got her AND Joey McIntyre's autographs, which was greatest thing ever haha. The revival of "Les Mis" is pretty good, but Daphne Rubin-Vega was Fantine and let's just say that she must've peaked when she played Mimi because it was NOT okay and I say that in the nicest way possible, but Lea Salonga (best Eponine EVER from the original run and the original Kim from "Miss Saigon") just replaced her, so I bet the production is awesome now. Sorry to get all long-winded about showtunes; I just got excited Have you ever gotten into "Into the Woods"? |
