Q Magazine's 20th-Anniversary Covers: What's Wrong With These Pictures?

.....I have to agree about the violin-bow thing. And of course, all us young impressionable guitar-hero-wanna-be's had to go rip off a bow and try it at home. It's the sort of thing that will have your parents putting arsenic in your supper! That, and imitating Ted Nugent's feedback on Double-Live Gonzo...

.....I was into Pagey's monster riffs, the cool chords he used on stuff like the Rain Song, and the great old-time blues standards that he ripped off note-for-note.

I worked on the Led Zep DVD a few years ago and, while watching some performance rushes with Jimmy Page, I told him that playing the guitar with a violin bow sounded shit back then and it still sounds shit now. His reaction wasn't exactly the one you'd expect from a mid-level paper-mill manager from Slough. More a compendium of all the rude words they didn't print in the English Oxford Dictionary For Children. Yeah, I'd say he's still got it in him...

.....No one even knows who Jimmy Page is anymore. Of course, he hasn't really ripped it up since Physical Graffiti, 26 years ago. No big surprise. Still, I felt it was offensive. Guy was my hero, and I plopped down wasted a LOT of times at the midnight movie watching the Song Remains the Same...

I was going to vote for "too many old white dudes, not enough women of any race." But that's not a listed option.

Seriously, it looks like an Aphex Twin album cover.

The fanfic is going to be odd for that one.

I'm just surprised to see that Albarn isn't behind a translucent screen or represented by a marionette.

Also, I'd like to thank Q for reminding me of Dido's extensive musical accomplishments. I'm sure at the magazine's anniversary party, she and Paul McCartney will have a lot to talk about.
