Re: Lullabies and Lies: the Epic of Led Zeppelin

so Carmen said that Jimmy told her:
"We used to see more black people at the shows," Jimmy said with some
agitation. "After Martin Luther King was shot, there were less. Its a
shame, really." Never had I heard anyone speak with such earnest honesty
on the topic.

HAH!  sorry, but either Jimmy's brain is more fried by drugs than we
thought, or _someone_ is lying.  MLK was assassinated in April of 1968.
Zeppelin's first gig (as the "New (?) Yardbirds" was in October of 1968.
anybody else see a major problem here?

sorry, JR, hon........if you'd read her page a bit more, you'd have
across her confessing to Pagey that she had her bra stuffed with nylons
(aka:  panty hose, folks).

IMO, true "proof" would have been a scan of the written, notarized
authorization by Page & Plant for the book.  along with proper
authenticazation (is that a word?  LOL), of course!  but then i tend to
be somewhat cynical about such things.
