HM3 to this Zep song that might be "Misty Mountain Hop" but I'm not sure.  It's one of the few LZ songs that I'll stop what I'm doing to listen to.  Was that an electric piano playing the riff to kick off the song?

Well DO ya...  PUNK!?!

ooo! BOS2 Dennis Coffey and his Detroit Guitar Band! "Scorpio", baby!

have we ever compiled the Zodiac Set?

"Aquarius"
"Son of Saggitarius"
etc


That would require some stretches:

Supremes, "No Matter What Sign You Are"

Frank Zappa's making-fun-of-disco-cokeheads song that goes, "Let me guess: You're a Libra."

Something wrong with my speakers at home here.  I don't have time to trouble shoot too much, but I can't hear the set.  :cry:   If the new damned cat has done something to my wires, I'll be  :x

VHM to Dennis Coffey, "Scorpio."  Very clever, Bob!


ETA: I've never heard the follow-up, "Taurus."  A soundalike?


Oh my yes. As I think we've discussed before, the album was 12 instrumentals all named after signs of the Zodiac.  "A very important album in it's time."


Rudy Ray Moore's "Zodiac" album:
http://www.shockingimages.com/dolemite/index.php?goto=albums/zodiac

(I can't post the images here, which may be for the best.  He illustrates what Leon Haywood would later describe in "I Wanta Do Something Freaky Ta You" as "all 12 positions of the zodiac sign," a sort of astrological kama sutra.)

Loved the use of scare-quotes here, btw.

No, though it is a huge cat.  The quote refers to my avatar.

Yeah, but I thought the phrase had moved into the mainstream.

More to the point of tonight's concert, I wonder if he'd ever play something from Kantner & Slick's "Sunfighter."

You've got to be kidding!
