Currently listening to the Sixty Six To Timbuktu album which i've haven't hearfd for ages. Now being a young whipper snapper at 25 what else of the back catalogue should I be having a listen to?

Never really been into Led Zep but fancy giving it a go!

Any suggestions welcome

I'm am of identical vintage to you!

Seeing as your intrigued, you gotta give Led Zepp a listen. All of their stuff!

Difficult to say because Plant's music has always been so varied from slow ballad to heavy rock, plenty of stuff on You tube, but I've always liked this....:-

Phil,

for original Led Zep stuff (much better than Plants solo stuff IMHO) get your behind up to my Gaff with a few cans of strong lager and we can listen to your hearts content smile

That sounds like a plan to me.

phone Yes that's right darling, I went the wrong way out of the out of the station and ending up back at Greg's. Unfortunately the only drink he had was lager so i'm now I can't drive... if you could come and pick me up that would be great hehe
