There can only be one all-time greatest

There can only be one all-time greatest - Last night I had the pleasure of going to see Robert PlantRobert Plant at The Fillmore at The Fillmore Auditorium in Denver. I have been a lifelong fan of Led Zeppelin and now that my youngest son is a very talented musician with classic rock and roll taste, he thought it would be incredible to see one of the icons in the industry.

Robert Plant did not disappoint, playing with his band "The Sensational Space Shifters" he performed several of his former bands classic hits and he sounded every bit as good now as he did 40 years ago. The newer music was also very good and I do not know why I expected any different. I am definitely biased when it comes to Led Zeppelin and Robert Plant, but even if you were not a fan, it is Robert Planthard to argue that they were not the greatest rock and roll band of all time.

As I was watching the show I noticed the other band members, they were very talented indeed, but you could see the awe and the joy they had playing alongside this legend, it almost felt like they were enjoying his performance as much as the audience, and then when they played their solos, Robert Plant was enjoying them every bit as much as they enjoyed watching him.

This got me to thinking about people that are at the top of their industry, every single one of them absolutely loves everything about what they do, they love to encourage and be around other greats, they all get charged from one another and help one another to be their best, they are not afraid to share what they know and they can really and truly appreciate the greatness in others.

If you dare to be great, learn from other great people, hang with those that you wish to emulate, learn from them, most will be an open book and welcome you, if you truly have a passion to be great.

Barbara Todaro They were all great, Elvis was the first and no one can argue with the Godfather of Soul, The Beatles are my all time favorite, but there is something about Robert Plants voice that makes Led Zeppelin the inspiration for so many rock and roll bands.

Barbara Todaro You go Girl! Perhaps James Brown and Elvis were just a hair before my time but I do appreciate their talent.

That sounds like a great one.  I grew up listening to Led Zeppelin in the 70's.  My daughter is a huge fan of Stairway to heaven.  Most of her friends have no idea who Led Zeppelin is.

John~ #1 I'm jealous. I would have loved to have seen Robert Plant at the Fillmore. Maybe some day.

#2 Not many real estate agents are willing to share. They are threatened by the competition. That's why I love AR so much. It is non-threatening. It's hard to steal business from someone who is in another state!
