  1. Led Zep Trades Liners With Letterman

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin and CBS&rsquo; Late Show host David Letterman swapped one-liners last night during the band&rsquo;s very rare joint appearance on late-night television. Early in the interview, Letterman asked his fellow Kennedy Center Honorees if they&rsquo;d ever received a comparable award in the UK and all three in unison simply said &ldquo;No!&rdquo; Laughs ensured, and later Letterman asked the band about the influence Buddy Guy (another freshly minted Kennedy Center Honoree) and other bluesmen had on Led Zeppelin&rsquo;s sound. Page said Guy, Sonny Boy Williamson, Muddy Waters and other legendary bluesman had a huge influence on his and Jeff Beck&rsquo;s playing. Meanwhile, Plant added Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochraneand Elvis Presley&rsquo;s names into the early influence conversation, recalling the one time the band met &ldquo;The King,&rdquo; saying, &ldquo;Elvis had a lot of chicks.&rdquo; Letterman immediately quipped, &ldquo;That&rsquo;s something you all had in common.&rdquo; Finally, Letterman expressed how cool it was to have been able to hang out and get to know the three of them as part of the entire Kennedy Center Honors celebration, and jokingly added, &ldquo;I feel like I ought to be in the band, don&rsquo;t you think?&rdquo; A deadpan Jones quickly replied, &ldquo;No!&rdquo; See some of the interview <a href="http://www.cbs.com/shows/late_show/video/2312303684/david-letterman-led-zeppelin-s-viking-sex-music">here</a>.</span>

  2. Tapes Of Beatles Talking About Elvis Are Sold

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">A series of audio taped interviews with The Beatles, recorded the night after they met Elvis Presley for the first time, were recently sold at auction for $55,000. The recordings were made by DJ Jerry G. Bishop during the band&rsquo;s 1965 summer tour and up until now were in the hands of an LA record executive. Discussing Elvis&rsquo; music in the 60s, Paul McCartney said, &ldquo;Well, of course, since when I was 16, I've loved his records. We used to do a lot of his songs until we started doing our own &hellip; but I don't like the new stuff half as much &ndash; we told him that last night.&rdquo; Added John Lennon, &ldquo;We were asking him about just making movies, and not making any [personal] appearances. I think he enjoys making movies so much ... We couldn't stand not doing personal appearances &ndash; we get bored quickly." When asked if the two artists would ever do something together Lennon didn&rsquo;t seem enthusiastic, saying, &ldquo;None of us have ever liked those albums where they put two people together. I&rsquo;d hate an album like that.&rdquo;&nbsp; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWSfqQcJ9tE">Check out this video.</a></span>
