hambone Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 Welcome Dopey! Here in Las Vegas I talk to UK people every day, and they are all class acts, a pleasure to meet. You Brits are something else. Hey you gave us the Stones and the Beatles. We wont mention Herman's Hermit's, but no one is perfect. Have a blast!

dieselpower Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 @ hambone - Hermans Hermits music was arranged by John Paul Jones, he also played on a few tracks. What did he do next? Went and joined a band called...... Led Zeppelin. So yes, we gave the world The Beatles and The Stones but we trumped them both with Zep ;-) @ Dopey, from one Londoner to another - welcome. This is a great place, enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 DP, I spent this week at work with Zep on my headphones, savoring every moment over and over, of their first four albums. Absolutely timeless work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great place, enjoy. I was aware of the John Paul Jones connection going on to be Led Zep's founding members, and the LZ was the most awesome rock band ever, My dear friend Steven's Uncle was Mickie Most who co managed LZ .He was also the manager for the Animals. A great bit of rock history is that in 1962 while Mickie was at the wheel driving with Mick Jagger back from a gig late at night, Jagger asked Mickie if he thought the Stones would hit the big time. At that moment a truck was coming from the other way and the headlights illuminated Jaggers spotty, pimply face. Mickie said "Not a chance" Many years later Jagger reminded Mickie of this anecdote, and they had a good laugh. Hermans Hermits were a bit different, and I meant no disrespect.
