Open Thread

Led Zeppelin photo from al Jazeera website What we love most at the Open Thread is good writing. When I saw a THIRD well-written review of the Led Zeppelin London concert, reviews that were clearly labors of literary love, I had to share. It's a thing to behold when fine art, in this case an amazing musical career and arguably the concert of the year, leads and inspires another kind of artist, the journalist, to greatness as well.
