Re: Page's work & accomplishments

Your arguments almost hold water except when twisted this way:

NQ/ Unledded ( nothing really new per se just a Plant twist on ol Zep 
nuggets )
Coda ( nothing new per se except cleaning out what was almost done )
Box sets ( nothing new just remastering and repackaging )
BBC ( nothing new just repackaging what was already done)
BC ( Zep cover band )
HTWWW & DVD ( nothing new just alot of hard work cleaning up years of 
neglect )

So in that respect you can say, yes he was busy, but he hasn't produced 
any *new* SOLO material in over 12 years!!!!! ( not including WIC as I 
believe those were Plant outtakes ) So in that respect Plant has him beat.

Jimmy has teased us way to long with those 12 songs in the bag etc etc 
etc but really hasn't given us any new stuff to chew through...oh yeah, 
Domino...in ages. I am even starting to wonder about this last effort 
which seemed to be gathering steam at first but now seems to have gone 
grounded since Jimmy put his hands in the cement. I praise him for his 
charity work, I praise him for being the family man, God Save The Queen 
and all, but don't keep telling us your working on it and then drop the 
ball. I will give Robert the win on that. At least when he says an 
album's coming out, it comes out. Wether it rawks or send us into rem is 
debatable, but at least it's out there.
