Re: Plant wanting Zep to continue?

[Nech <tytlane@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Plant's uncanny sense of humor:

 PB: Why was John Paul Jones left out of the fold?

RP: [Getting agitated] Well, can you tell me...I understand the tone of 
this. Can you explain to me why anybody should be included in anything?

PB: Well, they don't have to be included.

RP: No, but I mean what's the psychological leap that says if I work 
with Jonesy on a project that Jimmy's gotta be involved? I'm not getting 
on your case, and you have to ask these questions, but I'm not married 
to Jonesy. He hasn't kissed me on the mouth for years.
Playboy 2001


 Me: I interviewed John Paul Jones yesterday. He's in town.

Robert: Yes, hooking on 42nd Street where he belongs.

Me: And he's promoting that nice group The Mission U.K. that he 
produced. And he's helping them out, which is nice.

Robert: Fabulous.

Me: I think it's nice.

Robert: I think it's a very big gesture on his behalf. I mean, otherwise 
he'd be in Great Britain, in Devon, where it's freezing cold and boring, 
with his wife.

Ha ha ha.  I think Plant forgot JPJ's number for fear that Jonesy would 
( & should've ) clocked him one on his funny little noggin.
