  1. I'm listening to some streaming blues right now on the radio.com. Charlie Musselwhite, currently.

  2. Led Zeppelin was sort of like the Stones in that he incorporated a lot of original blues songs - i still like them.

    I just dislike the fact the never gave any credit to the original artists they stole from. Every time I hear "Gallows Pole" for example, I think of Leadbelly's "Gallis Pole".

    An the song “Taurus” by the band of the same name, where almost note for note Led Zeppelin seems to have found the “inspiration” for the opening riff of “Stairway To Heaven.”

    In fact, on their first album only one of the 9 songs appears to be an original composition.

  3. In Michael's case, it might matter. If the allegations of child molestation were true, then it matters a great deal!!

    I am certainly against child abuse in any form, but what has any of that got to do with his music or talent as a performer?

    You like Queen, Freddie was gay, but does that have anything to do with their talent or music. NO! So you tell me what is the difference here?

  4. It's just smut. Who cares? Those that like the National Enquirer?

    It's funny though. If you bring up Michael Jackson's name, saying he had a love affair with a monkey and people care about that. Nonetheless, I liked both Michael and John's music. Does it really matter about their personal lives? I don't think so.
