thats where I was at, I think having this album here is the first time I found some Zeppelin I enjoy, cuz the radio hits mixes you hear all over the place are more on the shitty side, played the fuck out at the least.

wow do we finally agree on something? maybe I shouldn't mention it, now you'll probably abandon your punk identity and reform into a Lisa Lisa fan
this is also true though, I think in a way having come out of the anarcho/crust scene I was very much anti-Zeppelin for both the punk ethos of anti stoner/glam rock era and very much anti-mainstream which in our time Zeppelin is the pinnacle of..
BUT, the Dead really changed my life years ago, and they single-handedly worked to shift my tastes and exposure towards more acceptance of differing musics..
with Hendrix, of course he was dug in England before US, it was mid-60s the only black music acceptable in mainstream US were stereotypes and even caricatures of black music/people, and in the opposite end of that spectrum, in England ANYTHING remotely black was acceptable and popular, regardless even of merit, though clearly with Hendrix it was a wise decision and a matter of good taste.
England has been a good place musically, for blues, metal, punk, reggae, quite a bit of my record collection has had major play in England.
