Awesome stuff, LLC. The Stripes are AMAZING. Any and all clips that you wanna post would be much appreciated. I found a pretty cool one of Jack playing w/ THE WHO's Pete Townsend. Jack is the best modern guitarist along with John Frusciante of Red Hot Chili Peppers, I think. I found their whole Bonnaroo performance on youtube... I'll post them later. Also, their performances on Conan have always been great, as Conan is a huge Stripes fan himself, and always gives them generous time slots. In 2003, when Elephant had just hit stores, they were the musical guests for the whole week. And then, the other night, they guested, and they actually got to play two songs in one episode. I know NBC has been cracking down on youtube by removing a lot of Late Night clips, but I'll try and post all the Conan stuff I can find... They're quite good.

This is interesting... The CNN-YouTube Debates"What will you ask the presidential candidates?" "Turn your question into a video and you could see it broadcast and answered on live TV!" http://www.youtube.com/debatesI've been seeing various things on YouTube about the presidential race, with features on each candidate, but I just found out about this. I'd bet a few of you who are creative and savvy with making videos could have some fun with this and maybe even get chosen.

I guess I've been turning a few people onto the White Stripes... So, here is, first, Jack White's side-project, The Raconteurs performing my favorite song off their album at last year's Lollapalooza. Secondly, is perhaps the coolest thing I've ever seen on cable; Back in 2003, to promote their album "Elephant" the white stripes appeared as the musical guests on Conan for a whole week. To close out the week, on Friday, they played their song "Let's Build a Home" and, on an impromptu whim, went into the Blues classic "Goin' Down to Memphis"... Jack went crazy, ran off the stage, threw his guitar onto Conan's desk, played the craziest slide-guitar solo I've ever seen, and then threw his guitar on the ground and performed an acapella sample of the Stripes song "Cannon".... It's quite the performance. The Raconteurs - Level (live @ Lollapalooza 2006)The White Stripes - Let's Build a Home (Live - Conan O'Brien 2003)

Here's a "fake" interview the White Stripes sent out to promote Icky Thump, in which Jack Lawrence, bassist of the Greenhornes and the Raconteurs, pretends to be Jack White. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNBDowD0Aj8

Jools Holland's music show is the only one worth watching over here, for me, at least on the five-channel, terrestrial TV that you get with a basic TV license. I saw him and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra live last November. Lulu, Ruby Turner and Louise Marshall guest performed. It happened to be Lulu's birthday too, and we all sang happy birthday to her. So did my penis.

Both songs are in my Top Ten by G'N'R and Led Zep, respectively. I was really excited about "Houses" because I thought it was a live version, but still a cool compilation.  Usually all the radio plays from "Appetite" is "Paradise City," "Sweet Child," and "Jungle." But what makes that album so freaking great are songs like "It's So Easy," "Mr. Brownstone," "Rocket Queen," and "Nighttrain." One of the best debut albums of all-time, IMO. It's too bad Axl went crazy and ruined what could have been an truly great, long-lasting band. "Chinese Democracy" still has yet to see the light of day... A funny clip of Larry David and the actor who played "Bookman" on Seinfeld. Larry is waiting to see a doctor and gets into it with the doctor about using the waiting room phone: There's definitely a prick involved

I was really excited about "Houses" because I thought it was a live version, but still a cool compilation. This comment reminded me of something I thought I remembered reading at Songfacts. (A great site, by the way.) Here's what the page on "Houses" mentioned: "Despite being a fan favorite and about their shows, this was never performed live."Sort of ironic since "The "Houses of the Holy" are the venues Zeppelin played. It refers to the spiritual feel of their concerts."http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=357I'm not sure how reliable the site is, but I love all the fun trivia it gives.

(A great site, by the way.) Here's what the page on "Houses" mentioned: "Despite being a fan favorite and about their shows, this was never performed live." Interesting stuff, Gina - thanks! I wonder why they never played it live - Zep certainly varied their setlists considerably throughout their career. I always found it interesting that they didn't release the song until after the album of the same name was released. I thought Plant's voice was relaxed on this song and that the riff was pretty cool. Plant varied his voice throughout their career. My favorite Plant vocal style was the rough-edged sound he used on songs like "Trampled Underfoot," "Custard Pie." He countered that with his high-pitch wailing style on "Immigrant Song," "Whole Lotta Love," "Heartbreaker," and "Rock'n'Roll." His third primary style was his clear-as-a-bell approach as in "In the Evening," "Fool in the Rain," "Going to California," and "All My Love."

Goombah, we should've discussed Zep together long ago! Ice introduced me to the band - I feel foolish for never giving them a try before...it was like discovering what music really is, when I first listened to them. A rock awakening, as I switched from oldies (what I'd listened to for years) to stuff like Zeppelin, Queen, Jimi Hendrix, AC/DC, Guns N' Roses, etc. Not that I never knew of this music, but I finally immersed myself in it, and fell in love. What Plant manages to do with his voice amazes me. The "wailing" you mentioned is just incredible - in tunes like 'Whole Lotta Love' and 'Dazed and Confused,' his moaning and wailing, something that seems so simple, always just blows me away because of how great it sounds and how it really makes the song. I can't remember if Ice has posted it here, but I think you'd really enjoy the documentary-style videos he found on LZ at YouTube. LED ZEPPELIN INSIDE 1968 - 1980 A http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkpzbCMX4GwThere are many parts posted by the same user, and I think it goes up to Q. I'm still working through it, but it's really good stuff and fun to watch.

I'm still working through it, but it's really good stuff and fun to watch. Thanks Gina - I'll be sure to check your recommendations out on You Tube.  It's funny that you mentioned recently discovering Zep. I "discovered" them when I was in high school as well (I think you're about that age or early in your college career), long after John Bonham's death and after their popularity had faded. What makes this group stand the test of time is the fabulous musicianship. Let's face it, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant and John Bonham are always in the discussion as being among the best as guitarists, vocalists, and drummers, respectively. John Paul Jones will always be underappreciated, but he was a tremendous organist and bassist as well. This was a band that had an "all-star" at every position. The other thing about Zeppelin is the mystery that surrounds them. It's impossible for bands to have Zeppelin's mystique these days with MTV, iTunes, You Tube, and our age of instant media. There is the fact that there were rarely on television, which in turn made fans want to buy their records and concert tickets. It's different now, but Rolling Stone used to slam Zeppelin in its reviews. Then there is the urban legend that they sold their souls to the devil for their tremendous success (if you have not read Hammer of the Gods by Stephen Davis, I highly recommend it). I'm not into all that kind of voodoo, but it is interesting to see how high they went (popularity and wealth) and their tremendous hardships (Plant's near fatal 1976 auto accident, the death of Plant's young child, Page's fascination with the occult and dating a 14 year old, and John Bonham's unfortunate death).

It's funny that you mentioned recently discovering Zep. I "discovered" them when I was in high school as well (I think you're about that age or early in your college career), long after John Bonham's death and after their popularity had faded. Yeah, besides not finding out about them until now, I feel like I really missed out by not being around for their whole musical era. I was talking to my dad's friend after finding out he went to a bunch of concerts when he was younger and got to see some great musicians such as Jimi Hendrix, and it turns out he saw Zeppelin live. He mentioned that they played Dazed and Confused, so I asked if it was a long improv with the great bow work by Jimmy, and he said it was...which just made me jealous. Everytime I watch a live performance clip at YouTube, I just imagine actually being there, in front of those guys, and hearing them work their magic. I definitely agree about the mystery of the band...all that I've learned about them shows that, and I think it's part of what makes them so great. I've seen Hammer of the Gods mentioned in many things I've read online about LZ, so I'd really like to check it out. Your recommendation serves as further motivation - hopefully I'll get it online or at Half-Price books someday.
