    I met him and got his autograph at a club called Riley's in Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada during the "American Hardcore" tour. Good show unfortunately the club was practically empty.

    Something so timelessly youthful, animated, genuine and generous about this guy. And such beautiful big smiling eyes! Love him to pieces, even though I don't know him (he must have a quality that appeals especially to Brits, eh?)🥰🥰

    His mom playing pedal steel gives some insight to some of the twang in some LAG songs. Totally interesting to me.

      @ludwigguy380 4 года назад +2

      Agreed,,he plays with the same feeling as Randy and even pulls off some of Randy's live riffs and licks.

    I just finished reading ‘Nothing But A Good Time’, and I’m always surprised about how positive Tracii is-he has nothing but good things to say about everyone.

    I remember when "The Ballad Of Jayne" video dropped and all the LA groupie chicks went crazy when they saw that Tracii had chopped his hair off.

    It’s cool that it was the depressing, dark element of rock that hooked him in. I’ll bet if he was born 10 years later, he would have been a death metal guitarist.

    My 1st Led Zeppelin song was "Rock and Roll" and 1st Album was Physical Graffiti. I also saw the Movie "The Song Remains the Same" 10+ times!! Unlike Tracii I was into the more vocals (although the guitar was close) and couldn't understand why I couldn't sing like Plant at 13 with no vocal lessons!! LOL Of course I still can't sing like Plant, but have gotten MUCH BETTER developing my own voice. So I got that going for me.. ;)

    I am Tracii’s mother. It’s sad that he’s such a pathological liar. I’m shocked at what he has said here. I was a full fledged hippie. I’ve never had a friend named Joel. I wasn’t into Zeppelin until the middle’70’s and they were not near the top of my list. That Porsche belonged to my boyfriend named Micheal (yes, spelled with the ‘ae’ reversed. I used to hang out at the Troubadour when The eagles, Byrds, Ronstadt, Carly Simon and so many others played and hanged out there. Metal was never my thing until the late’70s. I listened also to mostly soul, rhythm and blues and country. I saw Aerosmith open for Mott the Hoople and was so blown away by Aerosmith (nobody heard of them yet) that we didn’t even stay for Mott. That was the first metal I listened to. Tracii was around 10 when I first heard of Zeppelin. He told me about Jimmy Page. I was born in 1947, a whole different scene than someone born in the late sixties. His memory here is confused. So he was older when he became obsessed with Page. Not at all when he was 5. It really hurts me, his selective mistaken memory. I was into playing pedal steel at that time Webb Pierce was the first to use it in a recording: the song was Slowly. I was into Floyd, Prine, Yardbirds, Haggard, Commodores and more of a variety. He made fun of me for loving Motörhead When I took him to Paris JJ Cale and Patti Smith were a big deal. I couldn’t watch the rest of this oratory. He DID have lessons at Valley Arts. I taught him those first basic chords. I played a lot of Johnny Cash Early Gun’s songs were mostly written by Paul Mars Black (who was never given credit and Robert Stoddard. The early band Phyrrus was when he was in high school. I could write a page flipping book about Tracii but I would never hurt him like that. Jagosz was a great singer RIP. When he hooked up with future members of GnR 2 of them and one other kid ended up invading my home and got me evicted. I was a single parent and had no place to go. Axl (Bill) lived in North Hollywood and was the nicest boy of them all. Sadly, Paul Black’s account on his interview with Jason Green paints the true picture of Tracii. I was treated with similar cruelty until this day. I’ll stop here before he makes me regret I was ever born.
