I Got a Line on You

I'd suggest getting these two albums first and then perhaps following up with some of the others:



"1984" can be found on this compilation:

I now have their debut and "The Family That Plays Together". I'll check them out when I have time Hep.

Zeppelin was the opening group for Spirit and they stole the idea for "Stairway to Heaven" from that song.

Thanks to Jimi Hendrix for naming the two Randy's by their states of California and Nevada.
