DID YOU KNOW...

The Physical Graffiti album track Boogie With Stu is credited to John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Ian Stewart and… Mrs Valens. Mrs Valens is the mother of the late Ritchie Valens, whose 1959 track Ooh My Head 'inspired' Boogie With Stu.

What is YOUR favorite song from the album?

Whichever song it is, come to Hardscrabble TOMORROW and hear L*z Zeppelin tear through the ENTIRE ALBUM!
..I think mine is Ten Years Gone...or maybe Custard Pie. Actually...I think it's In My Time of Dying...Either that or The Rover.

Wait! I forgot about In The Light!... or... you know what? Forget about it, just bring on the show tomorrow!!

As we get ready for L*z Zeppelin to show us why everybody needs the light...DID YOU KNOW...

Physical Graffiti's recording process took 15 months. For the era, that's fairly standard for a touring band, but it could have been wrapped-up in half the time had John Paul Jones not been 'taken ill'.

In truth, the bassist was disillusioned and seriously considered becoming choirmaster at Wi******er Cathedral before Zep's manager Peter Grant talked him out of it.

Upon return, Jones obviously felt rejuvenated because he even laid down some additional guitar - the only Led Zep album to boast such a fact.
