Shaking All Over Lyrics by Led Zeppelin

When you move right up close to me
That's when I get shakes all over me

Quivers down my backbone
I got the shakes in my kneebone
I got the ( ? ) in my ( ? ) bone
Shakin' all over

When you move and say goodnight to me
That's when I get shakes all over me


Remember upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all. - Alexander the Great

Jo, Jo, Jo...

What sort of a sixties rocker are you anyway? LOL...I read that and said, no no no..not Led Zeppelin. A few minutes searching the old memory files of my brain and I said, yes! The Who...Live At Leeds

Fortunately, I have that CD close at hand (my daughter, who shares my rocker sensiblility gave it to me for my birthday). So, whipping out the liner notes we find that Shakin' All Over was written by Johnny Kidd, the leader of the Pirates, "one of the first truly ballsy rock 'n roll bands in Britain." Their version reached #1 on the UK charts in August 1960.

Maybe Led Zep covered this (anyone?) but I have to say, I have listened to as much Led Zeppelin as Who in my time and it is not ringing any bells in my brain. Anyone?

Now I just have to get all the time-frames sorted out in my mind - we're jumping back a little here, so I'm going to go back and try and figure out how long ago J&N met and how long Nick has been working at the Red Stallion at this point - not really important, but I like pondering all things J&N!

Thanks - Marie

Yup.  We need to go back and revisit the time when Jeremy bailed Nick out of jail and kissed him in front of one of his fellow Police Officers.     There is no doubt a story there about how he was greeted the next time he showed up at work.   How did the guys react to him "outing" himself?

you're on the right track, David.  The incidents in question occurred in the middle of "Dupree's Choice".

However, since it is getting late for this little camper I can't look up the exact timing... also, I did not date the chapters in that story since much action occurs on the same days, however, "Dupree's Choice" begins on October 28, the day of E & E's private marriage ceremony.

Holy Moly, Louise!  I thought I was working late - I'll be heading home in a little bit and its after 10:00 p.m. here - what time is it in your part of the world?  Hope you're feeling okay! 

And speaking of heading home . .

Leslie, my husband had three piles of albums when we first met - Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix,  and The Who - so he may have an answer to your question. If he's still awake when I get home  :) I'll ask him.

G'Night All,

As a fellow sufferer I know just what you're going through. For the unitiated the following little poem says it all!

Knees

Ellery’s got a painful back
It sometimes feels he’s on the wrack
Ennis’ leg bones in his ear
could mean he will no longer hear

But geez
you never want to know
just how it feels
with painful knees

It’s like an iron plate is bolted
on your kneecaps
which has halted
any movement and resulted
in some painful jolts and mishaps

Like some rusty nails attached
to loudly creaking bones
that grate together night and day
in time with all your moans!

But do not fear
a little pill
can make it better
and dissolve
the bolts and nails
and iron plate
And that is quite a thrill!




                         is that the famous "bees knees"  so famous from far and wide  ?



     Beautiful mind

Hey Leslie,

I'm not nearly as up on all this as you - I just remembered the legbone bit and googled it and up popped lyrics by Led Zeppelin - maybe their version was a remake. I bow to your greater knowledge!

SPOILER

Ellery back in work, he can be a grumpy sod can't he?  :laugh: My mind was cast back to him saying to Ennis that he spends his days at work bitching and shouting and doesn't want to be domineering when he gets home. His colleagues don't seem to be the least bit fazed by him though. Just love those Ellery and Wes moments. Wes has his measure, and then some.

Drunk and agro Ennis turns into drunk and horny Ennis. I hope for Ellery's sake Lauren gets off the phone quickly!  :laugh:

It's nice to have the boys back!

have them back? where did they go?  I guess after a multi-daily E & E dosage any pause of a few days for Licky Nicky and Do-me Dupree is going to be a withdrawal.  EGAD!

Louise, you know the only cure for withdrawal is more penatration!    LOL
