Trust



Musician Magazine, March 1988, Page 86 & 87
Charles M. Young: Interveiwer
Robert Plant: Subject

{MUSICIAN: Last time I interviewed you, you were talking about having 
a 
champagne glass up to the wall of Phil Collins' room and describing 
his 
sexual habits.

PLANT: There's only so much you can describe when he's snoring. Dear 
Phil. Listen, I just want to get on the road and be like in Hammer of 
the Gods. It sounded like somebody was having a great time.}

It's a good article. It showcases Plants sense of humor and is laced 
with common sense about rock-n-roll. If anyone doesn't have a copy 
you 
can contact me off the list and I can see about making one available 
to 
you.

" Putting your trust in the "expertise" of people on FBO, who DID NOT 
travel
with Led Zeppelin for thirteen years, who don't have written 
documentation
to refute Richard Cole, is like putting your trust in the National 
Enquirer."

You are absolutely right. That's why I trust the horse, not the 
horses 
ass.

"Yorke covered the band almost from the very beginning and was in the 
position to offer some interesting commentary about the band, but I 
don't think he did so"

What do you consider interesting?
If bathroom habits are the measure of a rock-n-roll band, I've been 
listening for all the wrong reasons.

{MUSICIAN: Telling stories is why democracy was invented. Warriors 
wanted to go back to Athens and have a safe place to talk about their 
exploits. This is the free exercise of democracy.

PLANT: Nobody gives two hoots if I'm a good fuck or not. }

Spoken with a true sense of reality. Bravo!

"Wait a second!  Hold it hold it hold it.  A perfectly nice young Zep 
fan is
curious about the history of Led Zeppelin here:"

Precisely the point. Thanks.

David
