Maybe the most over played song in the history of music ? Other nominations ?
After much promising by Jimmy (from Epsom like me) Page, the deluxe remasters will begin in June with I, II and III . I preordered the double discs down the Amazon at a modest $17.00 a piece. Page has been working on this for a couple of years so it should sound great. I am on board through Physical Graffiti.

My Dear Hedley,
It did fit my theme so I figured what the heck I’ll help it on the way to most played song.
Amazon must have a plaque with your name on it in the foyer!

Amazon and I are quite close friends, but I do arbitrage between the USA and the UK. It’s all a price game.
I would much rather Boogie with Stu or be Trampled under Foot

MDH,
Either way, I still think you deserve a plaque!

This was once a part of my repertoire along with Crossroads and Voodoo Child. We usually closed with this number.
It was a crowd favorite. I treated them like Classical Music. They had to be performed note for note and the nuances had to be exact. I learned them by turning the turntable from 33-1/3 to 16, counting the notes, charting the intervals and embellishments then playing them slowly until they were full speed. I’ll bet my dinner I played this song at least ten thousand times.
If I had applied that energy to girl chasing….

Beto,
If you love a song and someone changes it even ever so slightly, you know and it spoils the sound. Your “research” made sure not a single member of that crowd was disappointed. It is always a favorite. Songs we can sing with generally are!
I’m surprised the girls didn’t run to you and tour music.

Beto, any chance to hear you on the internet? I’m curious.
Are your poems also songs? I remember reading your great “The Highway’s Song”.

Alas, no on the youtube

As a matter of fact, I am selling all my guitar stuff. I let my kids pick out what ever they wanted but I still have a 1958 Les Paul and and a 1955 Telecaster and that is just too much money laying around. I am only going to keep my Larrivee acoustic.
Here is Astronaut Chris Hatfield playing my model.

PS
I made some of the equipment on that Space Station.

That is just plain awesome

Beto,
You had and have quite the collection. That is one heck of a video-totally amazing. What a great choice for a song. Watching the guitar spin in 0 gravity-quite cool. The views out the windows are breathtaking!.
I am quite impressed by your making some of the equipment.

Beto, I’m impressed by guitars and ISS equipment. Great video.
I still have and sometimes play my L’Arrivee classical guitar. A Canadian classical guitar was quite a curiosity over here when I bought it in the 80’s, everybody else had a Spanish guitar. I like the clear sound.

Either Stairways wasn’t over played on this side of the ocean or I’m too young. I still love to hear this great song.
I also like the funny version by Rolf Harris, it’s great to sing along:

I couldn’t listen to KTCC music earlier because I recorded BBC radio.
Hedley, I hope you can live with the fact that good old BBC hired Iggy for a weekly show. So far he does a good job with a nice variety of music.

Birgit….way too much stairway and Rolf is notorious for his didgeridoo. He used to have a regular show where he would be huffing and puffing, making noise, throwing paint and magically a picture would appear.
Can the Ig string 5 words together ? Sounds a bit like the Dylan show on Sirius. What is he playing ?
March 16, 2014 at 5:05 pm
Hedley, actually Iggy really sounds (mumbles) like Dylan.

Birgit, playlist didn’t fire me up. Guess ” I’m bored…I’m the chairman of the…”

Hedley, 🙂
