It doesn't need to be 20 shows and it doesn't need to be one show – somewhere in the middle there, I think, to give everyone a taste of it and just see what it's like."

Sibling Rivalry Preventing Kinks Reunion

(Rock News Desk) Dave Davies says a Kinks reunion couldn't last more than an hour – because he couldn't put up with his brother Ray for any longer. And he says he tries not to think about the band he spent 32 years with.

A regathering has been on and off in recent years with both brothers moving towards and away from the idea. But now Dave says he couldn't consider getting back together because he'd be forced into a second-fiddle position.

"I thought what we were doing in the Kinks was collaborative. But Ray uses different words to me. He would talk about me as his muse," He tells the Telegraph. "So I'm important to be in his life, but only as a support for what he's doing. That's a pretty hard pill to swallow." more on this story

The Who's Quadrophenia Revisited

(hennemusic) The Who are reissuing their 1973 classic, "Quadrophenia," next month, in various formats including a "Quadrophenia: The Director's Cut" boxset, on November 14th (UK) and November 15th (US).

First Pressing of Led Zeppelin Album Fetches High Price Online

(Gibson) Vinyl's not dead. Indeed, it costs more than ever if you want the right disc. An early copy of Led Zeppelin's first album, simply titled Led Zeppelin, has sold on eBay for £2,200 (approximately $3,500).

This example of a first Led Zeppelin pressing is rare: it has a turquoise sleeve, a Superhype label credit and an all-important – to collectors – "label matrix" of "Side 1: 588171 A//1" and "Side 2: 588171 B//1."

Is the music any different to that on your old copy/CD/MP3 version of Led Zeppelin? No. But the seller stated, "This is the most perfect example that I have ever seen and I think that it is very unlikely that you'll find a better one." more on this story

Singled Out: Janet Robbins' Gypsy Tree

Today Janet Robbins tells us about "Gypsy Tree" from her brand new album "Sparks". Here is the story:

Sparks may be my favorite track from the Cd. I was living in Asheville NC when I wrote it. It began from a piece of a guitar loop I'd made, sort of a rhythmic drone part and I began singing over it. The melody was there from the beginning so I started working on lyric.

I like to write in the hours before sunrise during fall and winter months, and from my home there in Asheville, I could see Mt. Pisgah and the Blue Ridge mountains, usually with a cloud of mist at the base and over the valley. This song is part prayer, thank you note, and reminder. For the gifts of this earth I'm so grateful. For whatever spark of divinity we might be inspired by, I pray for. And in this realm, this society of death culture, remember to live a passionate life.

Hearing is believing. Now that you know the story behind the song, listen for yourself and learn more about the album right here!
