    I never knew either...

    Somehow the song looses it's somewhat menacing tone this way. Some things are just better left unknown...

    Taken from a recent Audioholics reply regarding "Club Polk" and Polk speakers:
    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I think they got the dates mixed up!! Stairway was written by Page and Plant in 1971 yet Morrison was singing it in 68? I like both groups but this is a poor rendition...Zeps version rules despite the overplay!

    Of course, a lot of "Zeppelin songs" were done before Zeppelin laid claim to them.

    Damn, that's a well done mashup.

    I am saddened by the drivel that resulted when white pop artists co-opted the urban poets.
