    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.....

    Happy Birthday, Jimmy...one of the all-time greats...a rock legend.

    Wow, only 3 posts so far! I thought there would be a "whole lotta love" for Mr. Page.

    Right about now, Jimmy Page and Keith Richards are laughing their arses off at Nancy Reagan. Happy birthday Jimmy!
    Good music, a good source, and good power can make SDA's sing. Tubes make them dance.

    Bought the first Led Zep album before most had heard of it after a buddy played it for me. That and Jeff Beck "Truth". Both were groundbreaking - happy birthday Jimmy!

    In honor of his 70th, I am currently playing Zep 1 thru Coda in order, not skipping anything. Haven't done this since I was a kid in high school.

    The recordings are from the Japanese import mini-LP (cd's) box set with all original sleeves, artwork and record labels.
