While the drizzle falls on Sunset Blvd, let us raise a toast to the Saint of the Rain Song, the great
John Paul Jones.
Sure, Page & Plant famously "lost his phone number," as he jabbed during the band's induction to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.
That's the year the two front men toured together on the "Unledded" album, with JPJ nowhere to be found, and Plant's son-in-law Charlie Jones on bass.
The good news is this time is we can feed our Zeppelin jones with all-natural flavor and no artificial in-laws (sorry Charlie).
Personally I would be ecstatic to hear the bass and keyboard genius hold court on any of these:
"Your Time Is Gonna Come"
"Misty Mountain Hop"
"No Quarter"
"The Rain Song"
"Trampled Underfoot"
"Night Flight"
"Down by the Seaside"
"In The Light"
"South Bound Suarez"
"Fool in the Rain"
"All My Love"

And how about the sit-down section of the show with Jimmy, Jonesy and Percy acoustic?
"Going to California"
"Bron-Y-Aur Stomp"
"That's the Way"
Sweet, sweet anticipation... all those thousands of hours of Heavy Zepping in the USA (see the motion picture "Dazed & Confused" for lifestyle specifics) prepping us for a Monday night appointment on the Thames.
I saw Page & Plant rock the Meadowlands in '95 and the Hollywood Bowl in '98.
Now I'm psyched to witness something I always wanted to but never have:
John Paul Jones performing the music of Led Zeppelin.
