callmethehunter:

Observe how after they bow, Robert immediately separates himself. Even Jimmy is surprised at how sudden it is. In the next gif, Robert makes no attempt to return Jimmy’s embrace. His demeanor is in sharp contrast to Jimmy’s exuberant joy. In fact Robert seems resigned and almost as if he’s saying “ THERE!! it’s done! Now let it rest!!”

Almost 40 years have passed since the death of John Bonham and subsequent breakup of Led Zeppelin, yet Robert Plant continues to be asked about a Led Zeppelin reunion tour. It doesn’t seem to matter that he has repeatedly shown little interest or that he has a successful solo career that has spanned close to 4 decades.

The following is a brief look through the years at a few of Robert’s responses regarding a reunion and tour:

In 1982 as he was starting solo career:
“But no, there’s absolutely no point. No point at all. There’s certain people you don’t do without in life, you don’t keep things going for the sake of it. There’s no functional purpose for keeping things going. For whose convenience? Nobody’s, really.”

In a 1990 interview with Music Express:
“I couldn’t go on and reinvent the spirit of the huge monster that was, because I couldn’t feel comfortable,“ he insisted. “I don’t know the guy who sang in Led Zeppelin. I see some very funny pictures of him, then I see rock’s vile offspring trotting behind in lurex pants and leather gloves with the fingers cut off.”

In 1995: "There’s no point in trying to pretend you’re immortal and that you’ve returned once again to do that ultimate version of ‘Stairway to Heaven.’”

In 2007: Despite Roberts repeated refusals over the years, in 2007 he agreed to a one-time reunion concert held at London’s 02 Arena . Incredibly, one million requests came in for the 20,000 seats that were available !! So it was that in December, Robert joined Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham on stage to perform Led Zeppelin material.

In 2014: During a Rolling stone interview Robert became impatient when the familiar question was raised yet again : “You’re going back to the same old shit…A tour would have been an absolute menagerie of vested interests and the very essence of everything that’s shitty about big-time stadium rock. We were surrounded by a circus of people that would have had our souls on fire. I’m not part of a jukebox!

In a recent Esquire magazine interview, the reporter jokingly mentioned that his editors would kill him if he didn’t at least ask. To which Robert replied with some annoyance: “My suggestion to you is to make sure you wear the right clothes when they kill you”.

In 2018: While promoting his superb album Carry Fire, which won Album of the Year (Americana) and for which he is touring, Robert concluded:

“You don’t even have to talk to me if all you want to know about is Led Zeppelin,” he said. “Thirty-eight years ago John Bonham passed away, that’s all I know. That’s it. That’s the story. You know, Led Zeppelin was an amazing, prolific fun factory for a period of time, but it was three amazing musicians and a singer living in the times. Those times. That’s not going to stop me doing what I’m doing now. So that’s a headline, or not a headline. It doesn’t matter to me.”

"My time has got to be filled with joy and endeavor and humor and power and absolute self-satisfaction.”

crystallineknowledge:

June 10, 1983: Stevie releases her second studio album, “The Wild Heart”.

“It’s like Bella Donna’s heart is wild all of a sudden. It has that James Dean/Natalie Wood feeling to it. It’s just Bella Donna a little more reckless. She’s just more sure of herself now, so she’s taking a few more chances. I’m very pleased with the album because there are no holds barred on it. It’s real strong and emotional.“

In his 2004 autobiography “Chronicles: Volume One,” Dylan wrote that, back in Minnesota, the first time he saw Baez on TV, “I couldn’t stop looking at her, didn’t want to blink… The sight of her made me sigh. All that and then there was the voice. A voice that drove out bad spirits… she sang in a voice straight to God… Nothing she did didn’t work.”
