Re: Favourite Zep clone?
it dawned on me (as I was listening to them today) that I don't think this band has been mentioned BLACK COUNTRY COMMUNION not from a Plant/Hughes perspective but the sound of the band. Especially with Bonzo Jr on the skins Ehh... I'm a major Glenn Hughes fan but I hated it when he formed this band...

About 900. I love collecting but there may come a point where I simply no longer have the room.

Re: How did Bonham go gold?
those two albums were good. I even liked the third, which they released under the band name Motherland. I'm a Bonham fan. I found that Motherland album dirt cheap in a used record store about 15 years ago. It's a solid attempt at going grunge. Rumor is a great song. Before Bonham, Jason was in Virg...

Re: Enuff z Nuff…or however they write it
I never got this board's obsession with this band. While I enjoy some of their songs, some people treat them as if they are The Beatles of glam. Only album I listened to in its entirety is Animals with Human Intelligence and I didn't think it was all that amazing.

How did Bonham go gold?
I mean, we never talk about them. Hardly anyone ever brings them up. While I enjoy that first album, I've never seen anyone call himself a Bonham fan. How in the hell did they ever sell 500,000 copies?

I dig this band. They had a number 1 hit with When I See You Smile. Funnily enough, Journey never did.

Favourite Zep clone?
Been digging Kingdom Come lately. First album is a classic but plenty of good stuff after that as well. Bad Image is a really good album as well.
Honorable mention goes to Zebra.

Why is it that Tom Werman...
made every heavy metal record sound as if the amps were placed in cardboard boxes? He did it with Motley, with Twisted Sister and with Dokken. Maybe he was fine producing poppier acts, but he sucked ass at producing heavy metal records.

Pretty average band. Without Love has two great songs. Not coincidentally, they were co-written by Jim Vallance. The rest ranges from good to pure filler.

I've heard plenty of people claim this is their favourite King's X album and I don't get it. To me, it sounds as if they stripped themselves of the elements that made them awesome. I wouldn't go as far as saying it's a bad album, there's a couple of good songs on it but also quite a few that sound l...

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say I dig the 1999 s/t. It's different but most of the songs are fairly good. ...

Good songs from start to finish and unlike Stay Hungry, it doesn't sound paper thin. This is what every TS album should've been like.
