  1. Yawza ! that's some heavy news. Thanx.
  2. Congratulations ^ it looks stunning. Some guitars have a certain authority about them - count the Guild above in. And heps for that serious 'Triangle of 36-bronze'. Never ever heard of anything like it. An impressing'n'original passion. I 'only' have an older Ibanez here - when asked it says "I'll do my best, yes".
  3. Hehe, , , yea, censorship wasn't invented yesterday. The butcher-cover got the knife somewhere around 1966. .
  4. Okay, the climbing kids are siblings, which doesn't move the immediate interpretation of the scenery : Young fans exploring rock/rocks. Is your woke-statement serious - has the cover been censored/altered in re-releases !? Anyways, the outer motif doesn't really blend with the inner gatefold. And the same can to some degree be said about the 'Zep 4' sleeve. Yet I personally like the idea of the old torn down house with wallpaper & framed picture in contrast to the modernistic block in the background - and in that context the branch-carrying geezer may work. Still it's a strangely sentimental point-of-view or angle when considering we're talking a progressive rock band in the midst of a cultural explosion. That said, it was just a few years after a new conscience regarding the irreplaceable value of some older buildings/scenes/environments was bein brought to life over here (don't know 'bout US). Up til circa 1968/69 all new was considered progress - and tearing down old miserable stuff didn't cause much reflection. The Zep-camp might have sensed there was an awakening zone in between. .
  5. It's the same kid, isn't it - the same young fan exploring the ROCK realm. But an old burdened man ?! , , , found on a market by the front singer. . .
  6. Hehe, , , at the other hand LP-covers had shown and taught us quite a bit at that point already. Seems the berries was a double sweet coincidence. I remember Neil Young praising the record for its loose qualities not so many years ago. Admit it was like that - pretty avantgarde, , , and let's not forget it happened before Bob's Self Portrait.
  7. This was my guide into the very same topic 13 years ago speaking. What a voyage it has been. . .
  8. 😆 Just heard the tune by writer Malvina Reynolds and also the P. Seeger version for the first times in 40 years. And actually liked it a little - interesting too, , , as it points fingers at all the sources that keep a healthy society running. In that way it both very well behaved and a tool for dangerously undermining counter-culture. Will zoom in on If I had a Hammer during the weekend. .
  9. 1 - Yes, but nothing serious the first many years. 2 - No-no-no, , , some people replace them for primarily 2 reasons : deterioration fx lift ups and taste. But the majority of p-guard-players just keep them as they are which works fine. There are kind of transparent films to put on the helpless top. Very un-sexy and only for over careful 'sissies' and clever-heads who probables will play Little Boxes on a Hillside all their life. .
  10. Great news ^ though I never understood what he was doin' there. . .
  11. For a moment thought this was the spade Garcia used when he played that Fillmore East concert on acid - AFTER the gig. . .
  12. Hi - your questions are highly relevant if you're on the hunt for a 60s square. My advice is to search these pages - the topic has been endless turned, tumbled, discussed all over the map. I get hoarse just by thinking about it. Perhaps others will chime in and I may too. For for now, please go by search words and hopefully find everything there is to know. Enjoy ~ And yes, they differ a lot - plenty of traps to fall into.
  13. Interessantos - I only bought the CD 3 or 4 years ago and have the double-feeling about it. Remember when it came out though - and how confusing it was for these young eyes to see that nice Macca-shot on the LP-cover, , , right next to the spring-new Let It Be. . 😵
  14. Lots of treble in these cans. .
  15. Now you're entering Dylan territory. .
  16. Murph, your gentle side is appreciated. I'd say is has a beatle-vibe ringing. . .
  17. Never seen it happen on a Hummingbird - and they were born 2 years before the Dove. Perhaps a few times the 200. The slopes all seem to go far as well. .
  18. This may be where you're headed - the crystal-leather stage. Actually looks quite good her -
  19. ... It's a drag - I frankly thought it was a teaser leading the the real thing. But no. However this one is in play too. There is a short film on FB where Olivia Harrison tells the story about how George found it in a second hand shop. Not sure I believe it. Then again it could be true. . One needs to hear the new song with a set of alternative ears - and an open heart. Not hard to understand if it's too challenging or impossible. In that case just don't turn on the track. I don't really hear it, , , yet give it spin now and then. Just passed round circa six, , , wonder if I'll reach number 9.
  20. I still haven't found out when it's from. That said early 60's 45s are some of the best I've played. Hahe, , you could be serious. I don't care about the price. It's ridiculously high and - true or false - seller over-rates the history. I'm a believer - I think Cat touched these glued pieces of wood.
  21. Here's Cat with hole. https://majicat.com/articles/rave67.htm
  22. Okay - 97.1 % positive feedback. I can't measure that.
  23. Ouh thanx - saw the stool page and others, , , couldn't find this with the rug. I too like that one - though it's a slightly weird a mix between the Hummingbird garden and Epi Frontier desert.
  24. Okay, if they say so, , , https://www.ebay.com/itm/186122959309?hash=item2b55caf9cd:g:8CIAAOSwG5tlLIxT&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8Ic1KsKaF%2BCok6BQqE16d68zg4MGWHTrIzN%2FQAR4z3EJcai9cmzQaDdYh8UbdqnWEU%2FPLinu%2B0HAFefBj8cKacFgRzabE%2FOnL5XU%2FKdo%2BVxb70X9tXgHYGMGp7w2gfqSvtQgP%2F26C2Ip1tAcYozyAmbc3OlN%2FCpMVe8iMNlbnd%2FAIpeyOSQbNIaZsKbIHFqHmhLtFPwITvVAYc%2B6zcRroHwxB2abfZ3mjWCl24fAy5GRtW8Jrm6ZWlKsQdwBI5gkMrn1VcmIslc%2BeBBQavCTGJFrzHfuo7WZh1WO%2B5Mw14PNyc0itZIo%2B7sRu1xDSzE5bA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR8iIkNj8Yg
