Guest guest Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Sat Nam, Apparently, Yogi Bhajan is not the only party who felt the "Long Time Sun" was a great way to end a "sacred" event...................................... "Whereas Zeppelin could whip up a crowd into an almost praeter-human entity, the Incredible String Band (ISB) specialized in creating a mystical, joyful ambiance -audiences often referred to an ISB gig as being like in a 'church'. Robert Plant again "I was thrilled to be around them. I thought the whole communion of audience and musical troupe was absolutely wonderful. However, somehow our other Prince of Darkness drew me closer and closer to Alice Cooper and the ridiculousness of rock culture and I kept looking behind wistfully as I jumped on the starship and went off to commit more carnal atrocities ha, ha! The one thing we always wanted to do in Led Zeppelin was to finish off the show with the String Band's A Very Cellular Song** - the bit that goes 'I was walking in Jerusalem just like John. goodnight, goodnight..' But Bonham, bless 'im, said something very much like "Fuck Off!" for the full text, and audio link, go to http://sahej.com/Incredible-String-and-Led-Zeppelin.htm If you listen to the "original" you'll definite look back on the 60's with a definite sense of the yearning and magic of the times. http://www.church-mouse.com/A-Very-Cellular-Song.ram The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by Incredible String Band (ISB) is available at Amazon, also, at http://www.amazon.com/Hangman-Beautiful-Daughter-Incredible-String/dp/B0000263JN\ /sr=1-1/qid=1158585868/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-9316900-6659351?ie=UTF8 & s=music The "Long Time Sun" is toward the end Blessings all around, Dharam Kundalini-Yoga , "wwittstamm" <mail wrote: By the way: The song is 40 years old now and was originated by Mike Heron/Incredible String Band on the album "The hangmans beautiful daughter".
