I know stairway and it sounds like it goes up and the spirit song, which is nice, goes down?
Taurus - Spirit.

about half guitar songs seems to have dum dum dum dim dim dum progressions of a chord (arpeggio ?)
just listening to 'maggot brain' and that has the same thing at the start :D

Only the first Led Zep album did anything for me. It had that rawness the later albums forgot.
Actually, that seems to be the case for me with many rock bands, old and new. No idea why.

EdiT:
As someone who part-time'd at a music store (mostly selling guitars and bass) during my secondary school days, I absolutely DESPISE Stairway to Heaven (especially the intro verse). It was second on the list of banned songs in the test area, behind Peep Durple's Smoke on the Water.

First of all, and you probably already know it, I love Led Zeppelin. I have every album.
Then I never really followed the case regarding Stairway but I also think that this whole circus about it was bullshit and I do not even see a real similarity between the two songs.

Though I agree with Slob that Stairway is not on my list of favorite songs by the band and Smoke on the Water is just meh. And I dig some stuff from Deep Purple, especially the first records, even the very first.

Yeah seems to me to be a bit of a money grab (the song alone 'earnt' 2 million quid in the interim period of the case!),
wasn't even the like original band that was after it. I'd much rather see the drummer for the Amen break get known and paid (I know the story about him and the fundraiser for his family, so it's nice there is some sort of restitution)

I've been following her closely since her LP (which I paid too much, but understandably since it came from Australia, so it's OK.). I caught her "live" (meaning: live streaming) twice already, and the piano-only gig she did is partly on this new EP. She is young, but if she doesn't get side-tracked by dreams of pop success she can still do so much.

It sounds like every other AC/DC song. :)

This was definitely better and the real deal for me:

Also the video actually is creative. This song alone is reason enough to get into the band or Rock' n' Roll. Not so much the video above.

Their energy has certainly faded since the glory days of their youth, but kudos to them for still doing it.

My favorite moment from the old days are probably "Whole Lotta Rosie".

My current "Happy Place" album. Could fit the electronica thread, but it's more disco-pop, so posting here. No Bandcamp so you'll have to make do with a Youtube playlist; Róisín Murphy - Róisín Machine

Yes, wow, really cool. From the more mainstream side of things, Billie Eilish "Therefore I Am", yes, I love her attitude.

@Gekko
Best heard in album form from start to end, and then follow it up with the extended mixes. It's kinda what my 2020 needed.
Shamefully, I got my copy from the Russians. Label direct only sells physical and delivery times are pretty shit right now, so I got impatient.

I'd buy the double-vinyl, but with the delivery on top it's 42£. Damn.

^ The first print was supposedly very good-looking and is being traded on Discogs for diabolical amounts. I suppose it's good I discovered the album late.

Speaking of beautiful (and also sold out) vinyl re-issue of Coil - Musick To Play In The Dark;
https://www.daisrecords.com/products/co ... n-the-dark
Have to say, the album's aged pretty well (Bandcamp player embedded)
