A couple things about Led Zeppelin that have always been interesting to
me
1. The time signatures in the songs are very complex. Or at least the
way Page played them... sometimes the drums, bass, and vocals would be
on 4/4 and Page would be playing 6/4, or at least something that sounded
like that. It wouldn't resolve when the rest of the music would.
Kashmir is a good example, but really he did it on almost every song.
Very creative and original, I've never heard any other major band do
that.
2. Robert Plantt is a really hard guy to understand, he basically turned
into an old woman... but you have to give the devil his due, when the
band 'reunited' a few years ago for that one off show, he sounded as
good as he ever did, somehow. I don't know how he went 20 years without
singing those amazing leads, then just *did* again like it wasn't
anything. Nobody else alive sounds like him, and he seems to be able to
do it at will. Pretty impressive singer.
As for the pin, Stern seems to need no advice on stuff like that lately.
They're making a mint with everything they release, so I'm sure if they
decide to release it, it'll sell well like all their other stuff has
been lately.
