PINK ZEPPELIN GODS

When I was in my first college, I lived with a group of rich young Long Islanders in a dorm before I got kicked out for not taking showers, vandalizing, fighting, walking around in a robe, barefoot, being disrespectful to teachers, waiting for others to talk in classbut it was always, in what ever class I would go, me and the teach. I would sit in the back row and converse with the prof.

Anyways, so one day we are passing a bottle of Jack Daniels around and some one opens a bag of Cheetos the wrong way and they spray on the floor so I go around drunk on my hands and knees and scoop up every last one of the puffs. Then we go into a room and we smoke some herb in a bong, and I am with a guitarist, and a guy named Dave Kurtzman, who also played guitar. I had begun playig guitar that summer when I turned 18. I went to my first guitar lessons and by the time I got to the corner where the mail box was I resolved to not to get another lesson, and teach myself through self discovery.


There was this musician named Roy Harper that Led Zeppelin used to like alot, especially Jimi Page, and the Zep 3 album that went platnum really fast and is very earthy and was done in a wooded area known as Bron-y-aur which came to be one of the best acustic guitar songs of all time, in fact it was on Physical Grafitti which was the best. I noticed that Before Roy Buchannan killed himself he came up with a Blues sound kinda Floydish, almost like a Pink Zeppelin.

Anyways, I mastered a tape with the Roy Buchannan death blues music of him in space before he suicided kinged himself to death, and I mixed it with a particular Roy Harper album that was new back in 86, and I ran up to my room away from the two guitarists and I grabbed the tape I mastered and I wanted to play it off to my friends before they kicked me out for being such an incorrigible beast. I took the sticker of the tape and I popped it on the mixed tape, and I wrote CONSTANT FLUX on it, and I said it was Pink Floyd working with Led Zeppelin.

Now there is a bootleg tape going around, with the energy of of that Grateful Dead album bong hit from 1986.

Clapton did work with Floyd, I guess that would be called Pink God, because Clapton was known as God up until the present day until he first hit the scene back with the Yardbirds in the mid sixties.
