Unreleased Jimmy Page Guitar Riff To Be Retrieved From Secret Vault

If any of these people would give The Breakfast a listen, they would quickly realize that rock and roll is far from lacking balls.....

last night was a fucking rock and roll sandwich with a slice of bisco and a slather of jam.....

[Dweasel Weasel]

This HAS to be a joke if David Lee Roth was given half of the Key.  Seriously, I\'d quit the Protectorate if that were true.

Plus - does Wales really have highlands?

[Spacey]

I believe jking cited the source as the Onion. Definitely a joke.

led zeppelin\'s most influential legacy is the fact that ALL of the original old school rappers used bonhams drum beats to back their vocals. yes, that\'s right. without led zeppelin, there would probably not be rap as we know it today! and that\'s a fact!

without a bunch of monkey cavemen beating sticks on rocks, music may have never existed in the first place.....

second what does a poser Wham loving punk like you know about Zapp?

Does my being a wee lad during Zapp\'s heyday preclude me from being fan of their music?  That is as preposterous as me responding with, "Leith, what do you know about 60\'s Dead".

Hey Peter Pan, go back to the arcade.  :sonic:

Seriously!

Aside from the Breakfast and a handful of other bands, I have little faith in the current state of rock music.

I hear ya JKing.  Even Steely Dan inspired the track \'Deja Vu\'.

But most of the little rap homeboys growing up today probably don\'t know the roots of the beats.  As Freddiewaht would say, "kinda sad really".

Fair enough. learn something new everyday!

No it is not. I would know about 60\'s Dead because I was raised by a hippie mom.
That\'s why I asked you what a poser Wham loving punk like you knew about Zapp.
Pretty sure mom and pop Zurflueh were not getting down to Roger.

Pretty sure mom and pop Zurflueh were not getting down to Roger.

Well, my parents actually listened to much of the same music as your mom.

Additionally, I\'d like to think that one can also discover lots of music on his/her own.  Parents only get partial credit in my case.  

Anyways, back to the state of rock music and the secret vault.

That\'s why I asked you what a poser Wham loving punk like you knew about Zapp.
.

Pretty sure you do not know the extent of my music collection.  I could have sworn we listened to Zapp in my car last year.

Seriously, get back to the kitchen, I think your latest batch of brownies is burning.  :drool:

while many rap artists have sampled led zeppelin drum breaks, it is ludicrous to say that the fore fathers of rap depended on them.  Afrika bambaataa may have sampled bonzo, i\'m not sure though, but they, along with almost all other artists of the time, relied on soul and jazz artists to make the majority of their beats.  Artists they sampled such as james brown, lynn collins, parliament, mannu dibango, george benson, gwen mcrae  and so on.  the most common drum breaks ever used are def James Brown\'s  Funky Drummer  and Funky President. so i would say that
without james brown there would probably not be rap as we know it today! and that\'s a fact!

[Todd]

Can I get the last 5 minutes of my life back?


Please?

[jking]

wtf~ they eventually used those artists, but like i said, zeppelin\'s most lasting contribution to music is its contribution to rap, not rock.
