Exhibit E.6:

For all the years I thought the lyrics went "It's just a sprinkling for the bake-queen". As if!

Exhibit F.6:

For every slopped-up, missed note and bum chord Zep put out live in the heat of the moment, they are more truly alive moments (and they still head and shoulders taller than the best of all the pop piffle that gets flung out every week with just a little less care than breadcrumbs to park geese.)

because they 'pulverised' , as this sixteen year old fan wrote, after seeing them in 1975 San Diego:

"The next day at school, I was unable to even say a word about the show except that, “words can’t describe it…” In fact, I was at a loss for words for weeks. But gradually and with greater detail, I began to recollect moments of the show to my high school buddies. Funny thing is, 26 years later I am still in awe and still unable to really communicate my remembrances the way I would like to"

And yes, Dazed and Confused was still 30 mins of WARGHYEEeoeoeWchakaZhang!

Exhibit G.6:

For the echoplex abuse on the singeing guitar on "You Shook Me" from the now-legendary April 27, 1969 show at the Fillmore West that is probably STILL ringing in the darker corners of that once great auditorium of vibe.

Because Led Zep II changed the way I heard music forever. I was about 14-15 and got incendi-aerated. The next LP I got my hands on was Sabotage by Black Sabbath. Needless to say all the Iron Maiden fans at school looked shit to me.

ROCK!

Exhibit H.6:

For all the times snatches of their music pass through my head and instill in me the confidence that tomorrow will be a far better day.

Oh, and for the "Really oughta know..owww..oww"s on "Misty Mountain Hop"

Kick ass!

Exhibit I.6:

For the first time I heard "Gallows Pole": When everything just clicked for me and I knew they were without boundaries in their musical explorations. Plus, it struck me as being odd that a song about impending death could sound so....sexy, somehow. (sHIVER)
