Hi all-

    The media mentioned that the court procedings would only use sheet music of each song and a musician to play it to a jury.  They wouldn't present the artists' original recordings.  I wonder how that will be interpreted by a jury.  I also wonder how the jury was selected.

    I recently played the "Stairway" opening chord sequence to a friend (a Led Zep freak if there ever was one), and he couldn't identify the song.  It was only after I played the individual notes that he got it.  Just an interesting aside.

       It seems Jimmy Page has credited
 some of the inspiration to 'Stairway To Heaven' from
 a fairly
 unusual source.

 Just ordered!
