1985- Jimmy Page's Firm#Onthisday in #Jimmy_Page_History: ИЗ ДНЕВНИКА ДЖИММИ:
18 СЕНТЯБРЯ 1984 Г. — THE FIRM ЗАПИСАЛИ СВОЙ ПЕРВЫЙ АЛЬБОМ В СТУДИИ SOL
Работа над миксами для первого альбома The Firm была завершена в студии Sol Studios в Кукхэме, Беркшир. Мы с Полом написали материал и затем принесли его в студию для работы с группой. В этот день было завершено микширование нескольких треков для этого проекта, с которым нам вскоре предстояло поехать в тур: "Closer", "Make Or Break", "Someone to Love", "Together", "Radioactive", "Money Can't Buy" и "Satisfaction Guaranteed".
Мы сняли два промовидео: на "Radioactive" в Hammersmith Odeon в Лондоне и на "Satisfaction Guaranteed" в последний день первого этапа американского турне. Я решил вспомнить это видео, поскольку в нём можно увидеть Леса Пола в роли бармена, общающегося с девушками.
Blues AnthemIf I [E]cannot be so happy with [A]out you my [E]dear,
If I cannot hold you close evr'y [F#7]second that you're [B]here,
You must [A]know I can't go on.
[E] Ev'ry [A]time I sing my [E]song.
If I cannot have your love [F#7] I'll [B]sing the [E]blues.
{Verse 2}
Every time I'm feeling low and far away.
All the time I think of you, every second of the day.
Everything I Do Is WrongI see a great big sign on a one-way street
Going down the wrong way, who do I meet?
A big policeman a-walking his beat!
Everything I do is wrong
Everything I do is wrong, oh baby
Everything I do is wrong
I just don't see how I'm going to get along
hummingbirdSometimes I get impatient
but she cools me without words
and she comes so sweet and so plain
my hummingbird and have you heard
that I thought my life had ended
but I find that it’s just begun
cause she gets me where I live
I’ll give all I have to give
Hush Your MouthOh (hush your mouth!)
Oh (hush your mouth!)
Hey little baby don’t you cry,
Mama gonna drop around,
Hey little baby don’t say a word,
Mama gonna whoop you ’bout somethin’ you heard
Prison BluesI've been a bad boy, baby
I've been a bad boy all night long
Oh yes, I have baby
Yes, I've been a bad boy, honey
I've been a bad boy all night long
That woman, she don't even let me
She did not even telephone me
Ramble OnJimmy Page:
"...Because of the amplification and the tactile quality of it, you can hear the very, sort of, characteristics of each player. People have just tried to stretch the limits, come up with new techniques. There's always something new that other people are bringing to the table that is to be reckoned is very seriously.
Dynamics, light and shade, whisper to the thunder, sort of invite you in, sort of intoxicating.
Well, the thing that fascinates me about it, and always has about the six strings, no one has ever approached...They all play in a different way and, you know, their personality comes through. "
The Only OneBaby, I got a problem
I don't know what to do
Baby, I got a problem
Bleep me, it concerns you
You're the only one can help
I need you to
I know you can do it
You can do it if you try
Wanna Make LoveSaturday night, you're lookin' just right
People all stop and stare
Lick your lips, shake your hips
Run your fingers through your hair
You bump and grind, make me lose my mind
Baby, that's so unfair
Wasting My TimeLook around
Tell me what you see
Have you found what you wanna be?
And would you like to be a real go-getter?
Would that make you feel a whole lot better?
I really don't mean to sound unkind
But I've just gotta say you've been wasting my time
Who's To Blamethat cruel game
where the winners join the losers
in the blame
who's to blame
when the love light dips and fades
who's to blame
