This frightens me

[ericcoleman]

No, the fact that I have over a 100 versions of Stairway To Heaven does not frighten me, it's that 5 of them are by Dread Zeppelin

they did 5 versions?


andandand

are you even allowed in guitar stores any more? ;)

[ericcoleman]

3 different studio versions and two live versions ...

And guitar stores love me, I spend money, and NEVER play anything like Stairway

Including the one by The Lounge-O-Leers? Start your search here.

That is really scary. 100. Whoa! I think I have 4. IV, Song Remains the Same, BBC, and the DVD. Erk! One of my exes took the Dread Zeppelin LP's with her when she left: I never bothered replacing them.

Keeping the 'in dubious taste' motif, I've been re-learning the 'Child in Time' solo from 'Made in Japan'. As a young man....etc: but I haven't looked at it for almost twenty years. F**k me sideways, that boy could play.

Only one of them is Led Zep ... well ... sort of, there are a couple versions that take the Zep version and do bad interesting things to it.

I am running an internet radio station the 15th through the 17th. Unfortunately the Stairway hour is at something like 3am sunday morning your time

Yup, already have that one ... it's pretty much impossible for me to find one that I don't have that is listenable at this moment ...

That's a lot of stairs, and a lot of dread. Will she ever find what she's looking for?

So if you have a 100 versions then you have this version by Beatnix right ?

Here it is on youtube:

That is in my top ten favorites. That was featured on an Australian TV show called The Money Or The Gun. A CD (one CD set here, two CD set in OZ) had a bunch of the performances.

I can't bear to listen to that song, so that's okay. I can't listen to a lot of stuff these days. I listened to Roy Harper's 'Stormcock' for a bit last month. Else it's Bach or work or silence.

Most of what I play are pretty vicious parodies, which is how I can stand to listen to them

Stormcock

Reminds me, I need to get the reissue ... one of my all time favorite records.
