   Sharpe Publius Enigma 1994 Part 5 sample

   No Quarter", the name of the first Page and Plant album, is a Pirate phrase   
   meaning No Mercy.   
      
   Show no mercy to Carl Palmer and ELP "Pirates" Asia, Sting, Jon Anderson and   
   all their friends for  their intentional infliction of emotional distress and   
   acts of cruelty towards me.   
      
   This song became the title track of the 1994 Page and Plant reunion album No   
   Quarter: Jimmy Page and Robert Plant Unledded, an acoustic set by the duo   
   recorded during their concerts for an MTV special. On the 1995 DVD release,   
   the song "No Quarter" opens    
   the set.		   
      
   The Unledded project was the first time Page and Plant had collaborated in 14   
   years, and was the closet they had come to reviving Led Zeppelin.   
      
   That they chose to name the project after a song much associated with their   
   erstwhile bassist was not appreciated by John Paul Jones, whose biggest   
   complaint was that he was kept out of the loop. Jones found out from a   
   business associate that Page and    
   Plant were working together, but he assumed they were doing new songs. He was   
   on tour in Germany when he saw the MTV concert and realized that they were   
   doing Led Zeppelin songs. When the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll   
   Hall of Fame, Jones took    
   a jab at Page and Plant, saying during the ceremony: "I'd like to thank my   
   friends for finally remembering my phone number."   
    I guess JPJ was kept out of the Enigma loop. After all, the names Page and   
   Plant were all that was needed and were clues all by themselves..TDB clues   
   were planted all over pages of the lyric booklets, tour guides, magazine   
   articles, etc.    
      
   I'll never forgive myself for not seeing it years ago..But to me, Robert Plant   
   was way above my imagination..even farther than Mick Jagger.
