Released August 15 1979 Would end up being the last Studio Album of the band.
Thanks, I’ll check it out!
The night is young…and full of possibilities

It was slick and accessible for those boys, and all over the place. It was a well-edited version of what they were doing on Physical Graffiti (if ever an album needed culling it was PG.
Ties with Presence as my favorite Led Zep record. Guitar solo on In the Evening was so badass
it’s tight with just enough room to improv. Impressive for a trio. I was really digging on the noir vibe of these songs. You will never convince me Davis is a jazz drummer–he’s rock drumming. Makes the sound unique. Kind of reverse of what jazz drummer Mitch Mitchell brought to Jimi’s band.

The rain has caused 4 accidents in front of my place today. 3 were hydroplaning 2 landed in a ditch the other in the front yard of my landlords house and the other one was a wreck from someone hydroplaning of the same spot the previous 3 did. So when I say its raining again its not necessarily needed at this point and needs to STOP.
Heard this version today; been ages since I heard it:
