As a footnote to Physical Graffiti, I thought you might like to hear the original home demo, recorded in my studio at Plumpton Place of a piece of music that was going to surface as 10 Years Gone.

I presented this rough mix to the band at Headley Grange in order to do this for real. Robert Plant came up with some lyrics for my music that were extraordinary and then we arrive at the song 10 Years Gone.

@TheDeckEFL Remarkable turnaround.
Dropping out of the EFL would have been a disaster.
Fans have had a miserable 2 years,
I’m really happy for Salop now.

@talkdants Merry Christmas and happy new year to you Dants.
Hope you get time to relax and enjoy the break.
Probably not!

It's never too soon to revisit this classic. After all, it is nearly 🎄 the night before Christmas. 🎄

Packing a third suitcase in preparation  to go back to America. The handshakes and embraces and kind words from fellow musicians are still foremost in my often fading memory, worthwhile, long-lasting, holding. They punctuate how much we have missed each other.

To be with Iron Man and War Pigs, to slam and reach for my undone musical parts, and for however briefly,  to be in the reality of memories. Thanks to Tony, Geezer and Oz, the crews, everyone that put it together,  and of most importance, the Metal heads and bodies who have embraced so much and given their love fanatically.  To all thank you, thank you.   You are truly immortal.  xo

@PlanetRockRadio @WyattVW Bon Jovi, Slippery when wet tour at the Birmingham Odeon.
Tico Torres threw a drumstick and I caught it.
At the end of the show he threw another and I caught that as well!!
Had a little drum solo on the seats with my mates on the way home on the bus!

This evening 50 years ago 1,000s of people went out into the streets of Birmingham to meet friends & family. Over 200 of these people eventually made it home, some with life changing injuries, 21 others never saw the light of day again! 200, 21, Zero Justice - Law & Order?

[Adrian Goldberg @GoldbergRadio]

Thoughts today with all of the victims of the #Birmingham pub bombings and their families @Justice4the21

The failure to secure a conviction is a stain on British justice.
