I've locked onto some Led Zeppelin lately...

When the Levee Breaks has always been my favorite. Amazing song.

I'll add that I have a 12-year-old dog, a lab and flat coat retriever mix with soft and long black hair. And my black dog is named Zoso (and we sometimes call her Zoey or Zo).

I was at Half Price Books yesterday and picked up LZ II on cd. I never had any Zep in vinyl, but I had the first four albums on cassette.

Man, I love that store. The one near us out here recently moved due to a dispute with the building owner, but it had the greatest layout ever, with hardly an ounce of structure to it. A million little nooks and annexes...and a staircase that led to nowhere. You could wander around endlessly, never knowing what types of cool things you would run into. The music section was near the entrance, and was redolent with the old time musty smell of record shops. The new location is laid out like a supermarket, and is a complete borefest.

We used to have a bookstore like that here in Wichita called The Green Dragon. It was an absolute labyrinth with crazy twisty aisles and hidden alcoves. Unfortunately, the owners relocated about 20 years ago. Our Half Price Books is like the new location you described - laid out like a supermarket, tidy and squeaky clean like a Barnes and Noble. I think they are a national chain so probably laid out based on a corporate model. Apologies to Raymond for hijacking the thread

"Put On the 2`nd side of Led Zeppelin 4 ", one of the best scene in "Fast Times" is when his buddy actually does it. Classic.....

Except they cut to him playing Kashmir from Physical Graffiti. That always bugged me.

No problem - I'm enjoying all this.
