Former LED ZEPPELIN Bassist Says He Hasn't Gotten Very Far With New Solo Album - May 21, 2005

Former LED ZEPPELIN bassist John Paul Jones has posted the following message on his official web site:

"Well, I haven't got very far with the [new solo] album, stuff happened! First off, I went to L.A. for the Grammys. That was quite good fun — a chance to catch up with some old friends, the award was good too. Whilst there I played on the new FOO FIGHTERS record at the invitation of Dave Grohl.

"I went out to their studio and spent an enjoyable time putting mellotron and mandolin on a couple of tracks. The band was very friendly, not to mention huge ZEPPELIN fans, so by the time I gave them a little Rainsong on the mellotron I could do no wrong!

"Since then I have written a short piece for The Brighton Festival Youth Choir and Orchestra, which will be performed this Sunday 22nd May at the Dome (www.brighton-festival.org.uk). The choir is 30 strong and the orchestra is full symphony size, so lots of notes. The choir, for whom the piece was commissioned, are particularly enthusiastic and raise the roof with their voices. The piece is called 'Guerres de lEau' (Water Wars). I have also just completed (today) a piece for COMA, which is the amateur music society of Great Britain (www.coma.org). I believe it will be recorded.

I'm now going to prepare some Kyma programs to use with the triple-neck mandolin for the upcoming Barbican shows with Merce Cunningham (www.merce.org). They promise to be really different — free improvisation, I believe there will be just a soundcheck...

"Then back to the album… er, honest."

JIMMY PAGE, BRIAN MAY On Honors List From QUEEN ELIZABETH - June 11, 2005

Veteran rockers Jimmy Page (LED ZEPPELIN) and Brian May (QUEEN) are on Britain's Queen Elizabeth's annual list of birthday honors, according to the Associated Press.

For Page and May, it marked a big step up in recognition since March, when the Queen asked them at a Buckingham Palace reception, "What do you do?"

May was being made a commander of the Order of the British Empire, or CBE, for services to the music industry. He played a prominent role three years ago in celebrations for the 50th anniversary of the Queen's coronation, playing "God Save the Queen" from the roof of Buckingham Palace.

Page was to be named an officer of the Order of the British Empire, or OBE, for services to disadvantaged children in Brazil.

Там, вроде, ещё и Эрик Клэптон присутствовал и ещё кто-то- из гитаристов. Уже забыл...
А королева спросила Ерика -"Простите, а Вы, собственно, чем занимаетесь?". "На гитаре играю,мэм" - ответил Клэптон. "А как долго?" - переспросила Королева. "Ну, лет 35 как минимум..." - ответил гитарист-легенда.

Но не мне, к сожалению.

Тема в точку. Только вопрос в конце, по-моему, лишний.

Никто ни до, ни после них не может плести на сцене колдовство...
