I Think She's Going to Ramble On

She's right

how dare you!

Peace.

The name was suggested byThe Who's drummer: Keith Moon.

He said the name they had chosen first (which I forget) would "Sink like a lead balloon". And the band took Led Zeppelin as their name in response.

Robert Plant said he met a Hindenburg heiress, and she was unhappy about the group linking the family name (and associated tragedy) to the band.

But they made a lot of great music, so I forgive them. :-)

I think it was the Von Zeppelin heiress. When she found out they used the Hindenburg tragedy as the album cover, she was unhappy. The name of the band was "The New Yardbirds", which Page was the only remaining member of "The Yardbirds".

You have a good memory - thanks for reminding me! :-)

I'm a big Zep fan. I was just watching a documentary on Amazon last weekend. Plus, I remember stuff from a book I have. Thanks for the compliment. :)

I'm genuinely sorry, I couldn't help myself :-)

I watched the video just for something to do, and too see if there was something I didn't know about them. Lol

OK, I have to ask (since I live under a rock - and roll). Who is this guy?

I don't recognize his face, but I might have heard his name. :-)

Jordan Peterson, snowflake slayer extraordinaire.
The reporter basically turns everything he says around, quite funny to watch.

I could not load the video. Could be a country or copyright issue.

Yeah, it's got a problem at the moment, I can't see it either now!

I can't get a single video to run - the end of civilisation as we know it!

I read there was an YouTube outage. Saw the clip today though.

WOW that is bizarre! :-)

Thank you. You have some good Hide the Pain Harold memes!

Definitely!

Great Van Fleet gets a lot of airtime where I am. Robert Plant sounds like he gives them his blessing. I do like their sound, hopefully they will stand the test of time. They are very young.

These guys a so young, i think they are just out of high school. Well, Plant was 19, I think, when Page found him.

No. But now it sounds kind of interesting! :-)

Search YouTube, it's allover it. Their videos and people talking about them. And check out Dread Zeppelin, they play Zep with a reggae sound with an Elvis impersonator singer. Trust me, it works.

Zepparella

I seen them too on YouTube. They're pretty darn good.

Too heavy? Ramble On? You're killing me man, stop it!
Nice work, I love those cleverly sneaked in title references :-)

You might think I'm a heartbreaker, but that "too heavy" one wasn't on purpose. I was dazed and confused when I wrote it. I wouldn't want to take credit where no quarter's due. I don't know how many more times I could have fit references in (I don't actually know much about LZ). But thanks for the whole lotta love in your comment.

Anyway, I'd better stop before there's a communication breakdown. You can kashmir on the next meme - howbow dah! :-)

Only a fool in the rain, would hot dog about a black dog. Since I've been loving you with your submissions, I can't quit you baby. I'm going to California to boogie with stu. Maybe I'll see Moby Dick down by the seaside. :D (I'm a huge Zep fan)

:-)

Not a bad thing.

Lol

Enough of the song references, or I swear Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You!

In the evening, a living loving maid made me a lemon song. It was the battle of evermore to get over the hills and far away from her. So I headed for south bound saurez but she took all of my love. When the levee breaks from my tears, the rain song will play on my misty mountain hop.

What have I done????
Nice work :-)

I like it, makes me think about ways of doing it. I'm a big Zep fan.

Thanks for blessing us with your Presence in these comments.
