I'm back on air!!! Hooray!!! A little bit of a post-Grammys celebration involved with a couple of track from Raising Sand. It's amazing how that album still has staying power to now. It came out in the summer of 2007. 2007!!! It's also the first show since the announcement that Zeppelin won't be getting together in any form after all. Robert's voice is just that important. I still hope Jimmy puts some tracks out. He was working on an album before the whole Led Zeppelin business came back up. So was Jonesy, who's really made his own voice known musically since he started releasing solo albums in 1999 and 2001. We'll see where all the boys end up. Maybe, just maybe, they will join together one more time. It's just getting a little too late.

I was also joined by Candace Silva and Sean Heary for a bit. Sean being Sean wanted to play some sound effects so I indulged him a little bit. Candace herself is a little crazy for a certain Bruce Springsteen. She's a little obsessed like I am. Ok, overly obsessed. To the point where she could have a Springsteen show. Listen to her show Oh Yes They Did every Tuesday (although it will be Monday with the 3 day weekend, long explaination) 2-4pm. They've got a pretty awesome blog going too.

Keep your eyes open for an expanded explanation of my disliking of Paul Rodgers. If you have any requests for the next show leave a comment. You can also call in during the show at 617-824-8852 for any requests. Only one rule: it has to be Zeppelin related. Of course you can research to find a band related to Zeppelin or you can suggest one and I could make a connection myself. In either case, come back next Thursday 2-4pm on WECB for the best of Led Zeppelin and beyond.
