 Thank you, Scott,I've ben wondering about that--Denny Carmassi is a
killer dummer, in my book..almost as good as Eric Bonatti...is it an
Italian thing??? -)  the first concert I ever saw was in Dec.
'74--Mountain, supported by Jo Jo Gunne and the opening
act--MONTROSE..this was the original Montrose line-up..Hagar,
carmassi...next concert I saw, a month later, was these guys who called
themselves 'Led Zeppelin'..........there has been some talk about
Coverdale/Page on here lately...all I can say is, when it first came
out, and I'd bought it and taken it home, andpopped it in and put the
headphones on and cranked it up, i remembr thinking: GEEZ! THIS is some
ROCKED-OUT STUFF!!!! If anyone ever thinks Jimmy Page doesnt kick ass
anymore--just listen to 'Absolution Blues'...Denny Carmassi did a great
job on that album too--and i'd take him in a HEARTBEAT over Michael
Lee..maybe WIC might have been a bit more LOUD???? Ah well..water under
the bridge....Michael O.
