Oh this clip....The looks, the unspoken communication, the smiles, the shake of the head, the "Oops" , the resonating bass, and holy moly that fill at the end is just so smoooooooth . I actually envy those toms for the way his right stick just glided over them 馃構#drumporn
a certain post reminded me of this moment and now I can't stop smiling...
It's a fantastic song, a great mix of genres. There was nothing they couldn't do. Btw ,this is worth a listen when you get a chance. It's BoE sung by Jason Bonham and Deborah Bonham-a nice nephew and aunt duet. There is/was a lot of talent in the Bonham DNA.

I have no idea how I've lived so many years without The Battle of Evermore
This looks like the Hiroshima Peace Park in 71 when LZ first played in Japan. Think the guy with the placard has taken advantage of all the attention RP was getting by photobombing with his groovy little anti US Defense Force parade sign.
Also never seen this before! How cute they all look. #why were they often photographed squeezed into mundane parts of houses? #oh look, another cigarette in Bonzo's hand #Bonzcigphotodrinkinggame
#babies If only there were video for these sessions like The Beatles had for "Let it Be" Speaking of the Beatles, I always see think of George when I see this pic of Bonz even tho personality-wise George is closer to Jonesy
Nice selection with pretty peach background too. Pic 1: 2 x beard, 2 x clean shaven Pic 2: 2 x beard 1 x 'tache 1 x clean shave Pic 3: 3 x beard 1 x 'tache. Boys, coordinate! Is there a pic where they all have the same facial hair going on?
fantastic, how did I miss this? #every poster tagline is so accurate#would def watch this LZ Barbie movie #would also buy the dolls from the movie #ideally if they had removable clothes #Houses of the Barbie # RocKenRoll #MoBarbieDick #When the Barbie Breaks #I can't stop with the crappy LZ-Barbie puns
Well, they look overjoyed to be there! #Do they all have actual recordings with them? I guess suitcase allowances were stricter back then, so they each had to take one in as cabin baggage
#am invested in this whole universe #want to live in this groovy house #got my eye on that pink/black rug #I see a drum kit, so they have a friend with a moustache/beard and a short temper?
Happy Easter, From Paradox.
Sometime in the early 1970s on Easter Sunday morning.
On Easter Sunday, the two swinging bachelors of Paradox are sleeping in. In what was formerly the guest room of Tristam Lindsay's house. Until the phone rings.
<chaos ensues>
Tristam sleepily wrestles with the phone and finally answers, "Lindsay, Shit!" phone drop. more quietly, "Alex, I answered your extension."
From the phone comes the somewhat desperate sounding voice of their bandmate Duncan Cameron.
"Tris, you're allowed to answer your own upstairs extension. I need help! My in-laws are being extremely chaotic and long story short; can I meet you and Alex at Paradox House and drop off the girls for a couple of hours?"
By this point, Alexander Logan has murmured, "S' okay...I don't give out my number." before anxiously joining Tris at the edge of the bed.
Alex: "Is Janey okay? Tris, ask him what's happening..."
Tristam: "Uh...I."
Duncan Cameron: "Do you two have plans? You mother is in town, isn't she? She could help..."
Tristam: "My parents are in Tenerife, it's fine. Um, What's going on?"
Alex: "Ask about Janey."
Duncan Cameron, "Hello Alex. Janey's fine. She's keeping the kids away from the...incident but she wants to ride in the ambulance with her Mother. We need someone to watch the girls."
Tristam: "Jesus Christ, Cammy old man. How chaotic are your in-laws?"
Duncan Cameron, "It's not really as bad as it sounds. It was just an accident with an electric knife, actually. But my family would NOT understand, and they aren't as closeby, anyway..."
Alex: "Of course, we'll pitch in, Cammy..."
They did a great job.
Cammy and the girls, after Gam Gam's finger got sewed back on. No, I don't know where the goat came from.
Another view of Tris and Alex's beautiful new bolthole.
