My first Zep

[FSmith9095@xxxxxxx]

I first heard LZ II on my brother's 8  track in 73 or so. Groovy headphones 
and the "click" during tracks and  all.

I had always heard of the band sort of through osmosis but never  latched on 
to them. I do recall being fixated by "Boogie With Stu" and went out  and 
bought PG-my first ever album.

Flashes of the black arm bands that  Sept day in 1980.

A few years later,local radio station WMMR kept playing  "CB" from "BBC" 71. 
My buddy and I taped it off the radio and played it  incessantly on the 
cassette player in the car.

Lots of trips to midnight  movies to see TSRTS.

In college,there was the typical student cafeteria  where some guy was 
selling boots-of which I knew nothing about. He had  Copenhagen Warm 
Ups,Bonzo's 
Birthday Party and Mudslide. I being in college had  no money. I called my 
buddy 
and asked him to meet me with some cash. He had none  so I traded my leather 
jacket for those 3 boots. Still have em.

20 yrs  later, I remain enchanted.
