Still love that quote that keef came out with sometime in the 70's when he described Percy Plant and Bonzo as "A couple of clueless Ernie's from the Midlands". 8>) *And i love Zeppelin btw.

apparently competition goes way back... Stones, Who, and Zep were always amongst the highest grossing tours of the early 70's. Who and Stones got much more favorable press coverage. Zep were seen as newcomers, usurpers to the 60's rock royalty throne, the US contigent was wiped out: Janis, Morrison and Jimi. {In The US, Zep, Jeff Beck Group, Spooky Tooth, Sabbath, Purple, Tull, TYA, Savoy Brown, Fleetwood Mac had a devastating impACT ON THE sAN fRAN BANDS. bRITISH BANDS WERE seen as more professional, better showmen, fiercer players, their arrival signaled the end of WesT Coast bands with their laidback attitude.} Apparently Pete tOWNSHEND HAS ALSO been unflattering towards Zep, though Richards has been appreciative of Page's playing , but not Plant's singing. Richards has also been dismissive of The Who. The Kinks don't even rate. Richard's most recent comments may be attritubed to Robert's Plant's assessment that the Stones' current tour" gives bored old men something to do" Hey in the end, they may be older, have talent, have money, BUT they are all just people... Petty and honorable, big and small

There probably isn't bad blood there. I think Keef is just being Keef and winding people up a bit. He says in the same issue that Oasis and Sex Pistols are crap. So what, he's entitled to his opinion. Who gives a shit? 8)
