It's all on "Houses Of The Holy". Tonight (Saturday) at 9PM on the Mighty Q. Listen along, and let JC know your thoughts on the album, in the comments below ...

Led Zeppelin's "Houses Of The Holy". As near perfect as a rock album can sound. So, any guesses at what part of the record's production was described by one of the participants as "a nightmare of hot coffee, brandy, qualuudes, freezing rain, turpentine, tepid baths, bad food, boredom, damp beds, and misery"?? JC Douglas will fill you in on the stories behind the making of the album. And find out what happened between its recording and its release that would change the sound of Led Zeppelin forever. On The Vinyl Vault, this weekend. Saturday at 6PM in Alberta and BC, Saturday at 9PM in the Maritimes, and Sunday at 11PM in Newfoundland.

The album evoked images of sidewinding snakes, skinny dipping, massive freeway traffic jams, and Andy Kaufman's Elvis impression. And it brought with it deep thoughts, on mortality, loss, and nostalgia for a simpler time. And you'll find the title phrase on a diner (see photos) in Athens, Georgia, frequented by the members of R.E.M. and their B-52 buddies from the same town! It's "Automatic For The People" from R.E.M. ... in its entirety, on The Vinyl Vault, this weekend. Saturday at 6PM in Alberta and BC, Saturday at 9PM in the Maritimes, and Sunday at 11PM in Newfoundland. Listen along, and let JC know your thoughts on the album, in the comments below ...
