1970 01 February On This Day Screaming Lord Sutch: 'Cause I Love You / Thumping Beat
AUDIO: Thumping Beat (Soundcloud)
  • 1967 The Yardbirds - Hamilton, New Zealand at Founder's Theatre
  • 1969 Led Zeppelin - New York City at Fillmore East (day 2 of 2, 2 sets)
  • 1975 Led Zeppelin - Pittsburgh, PA at Pittsburgh Civic Center 

1969:
The band started out with White Summer Black Mountain Side rather than Train Kept A Rollin’

“We’re sorry about the delay," Robert Plant tells the audience, "but because we’re all a bit stupid, we forgot the bass player’s guitar! Would you believe that! So we’re gonna open up without the bass player. We’re gonna feature Jimmy Page. This is a thing that was very popular when he was with The Yardbirds.”

On this day 09 August

 Phony lords, real rebels, and music to unite them all

1994 09 August On This Day Page & Plant Marrakech, Morocco
  • 1966 The Yardbirds - Arnolds Park, IA at Roof Garden Ballroom
  • 1967 The Yardbirds - Leesburg, IN at Tippy Ballroom
  • 1969 Led Zeppelin - Anaheim, CA at Anaheim Convention Center Arena
  • 1969 Jimmy Page & Robert Plant with Screaming Lord Sutch at Experience Club 
  • 1994 Page & Plant - Unledded Tour - Marrakesh, Morocco

RIP Robbie Robertson (1943 - 1923)

1969:
David Edward Sutch (1940-1999) was not of the nobility although he was known as 3rd Earl of Harrow, and although he was the UK's longest serving party leader, he was never elected to office. In fact, Screaming Lord Such was an English musician who gave himself his own title, started his own political party, and used the money earned from concerts to pay for his political campaigning . Lord Sutch was a shock-rocker before the term was invented. His 1970 debut album Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends was produced by Jimmy Page and featured Jimmy Page and John Bonham among others. It was named as the worst album of all time in a 1998 BBC poll, which is kind of too bad since aside from Sutch's vocals the music is just fine.

1994:
For all you grammar police types out there, Marrakech and Marrakesh are both acceptable spellings for the former Moroccan imperial city.

Alan Lomax (1915-2002) was an American field collector of folk music traditions from around the world.

Jimmy Page mentions the Berber women's fierceness and no wonder. Berbers are an ancient nomadic people of the deserts of Northern Africa. Before they were called Berbers, their name meant “free man“.  Berber women are no less determined than Berber men to preserve their ethnic identity and the fierce independence of their people. One of the great Berber religious and military leaders was the Berber queen, Kahina, who in the 7th century led resistance to Arab Islamic expansion in Northwest Africa. She was a believer in the scorched earth policy.

The word Gnawa has three meanings: The people, originally brought to Morocco as slaves and free farmers (some as slaves to the Berbers); a religious/spiritual order; and the deeply hypnotic trance music associated with the religious/spiritual order that is used in the magical treatment of physical and psychic ailments.  The music has a parallel with American blues, music that also has roots in slavery.  More on Gnawa music.
