Awesome Zep news

Posted 2006-07-20 (木) 午前1:59 by terra

Possible future release of Led Zeppelin Fillmore West video? And inclusive of one of the most superb versions of Killing Floor? I have the audio bootlegs for these concerts but video would be heaven’s send. Hopefully the stash also includes As Long as I Have You. That would make me one very contented person. ^_^

Legendary promoter’s stash to be released and it ain’t only rock’n’roll

Zegapain Episode 11

消されるなこの想い
 忘れる我が痛み

I just finished watching Zegapain episode 11 and bawled my eyes out. T__T

It’s the people relationships in this anime that drive home a point that The Matrix tried but failed to accomplish in its third installment simply because it was overambitious:

人は島ではない
 一人では生きてはいけない

The Matrix 2 involved too much pseudo-philosophy and religious threads, which was great fun in itself, but made it difficult for the Matrix 3 to weave into a proper story. I guess TV animes have the luxury of time to tell a story, and if carefully contructed can become sheer brillance.

Anyway it’s too early to tell how the anime will end. I hope it can keep up to its current momentum and not sink like some anime (read: Ev*ng*l**n) towards the end.

Pagey on skiffle, COMPLETE!

Posted 2006-06-11 (日) 午後3:15 by terra

Now I’d just posted yesterday about the skiffle scene in the Yardbirds entry yesterday and what do I find today? A complete version of the performance + interview. I never knew about the second song. Pagey looked so sweet (I never thought I’d say that!) then! *___*

The Yardbirds rediscovered

Posted 2006-06-10 (土) 午後5:10 by terra

I’ve been glued to YouTube for the past few days since I registered with it and this is one of the gems I discovered today. A slightly (aged?) Japanese documentary on the Yardbirds. I’m thankful my Japanese is decent enough to understand some of the Japanese commentary but even if I didn’t, the rare footage is a plus. I’ve actually seen some of it before, for instance, the young Jimmy Page playing skiffle on a TV show. Actually, methinks I should dig out my bootleg Led Zeppelin related video (I have a decent amount of these, having been the fanatic) and post it on YouTube when I have the time.

FYI, the person interviewed at the beginning is Georgio Gomelsky (ジョルジオ・ゴメルスキー) who was The Yardbirds’ manager/producer and the owner of the Crawdaddy club.
