Day 7/10

I was tagged by @axshadows. Thank you, doll! ❤

10 of your all-time favorite albums. 10 days. What's really made an impact and is still on your rotation list, even if only now and then. Post the cover, no need to explain, and nominate a person each day to do the same.

I nominate @laylasessions 💚

I made up these questions a while back for one of those tagging things, and @laylasessions tagged me to answer them myself, as well.

Thank you, love, it was so much fun to answer them! 😊❤

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

1) Is Eric Clapton God?

Yes!

2) Dress up in Tudor costume with Robert Plant or play '50s housewives with Janis Joplin?

Dress up in Tudor costume with Robert Plant! I love Tudor dresses, and he'd look dashing as Henry VIII. ;-)

3) Stay up all night drinking coffée/tea and talking with Frank Zappa, or go to a peace conference with Bono?

Stay up all night talking with Zappa, he seemed like such a fascinating man.

4) If you could spend 24 hours with any classic rock musician, who would you spend it with and what would you do?

Oh, this is a tough one (she said having made the question up herself...). There are several with whom I'd like to spend 24 hours.

Hmmm... well, as the mood stands today, I think I'd like to spend it with Robert Plant. I'd like to talk, cook good food, curl up on the sofa together, and above all make glorious, hot, passionate love over and over and over. (Hey! It's my fantasy day, and I can spend it however I fancy. ;-))

5) If you could travel anywhere in the world with a classic rock musician, where would you go and with who?

You know, when I made up the question, my answer was going to be either Brian May or Robert Plant, but I'm going to go with Ray Manzarek (if he was still alive). I'd love to travel to places The Doors played and hear him tell stories about the concerts.

6) Which Beatle girl would you be best friends with?

Probably Pattie Boyd, I think we'd have quite a few things in common. (No, not just our taste in men.)

7) Which classic rock musician would you want to sing/play you to sleep?

Hmmm... I've managed to narrow it down to Brian May or Eric Clapton, but I think I'll go with Clapton.

Yeah, Eric Clapton.

8) Go bicycling with Freddie Mercury or car racing with Bonzo?

Bicycling with Freddie.

9) Which rock star would you just like to slow dance with in the middle of the night to an old song, and not say a word, just dance? (I stole this question...)

When I first posted this my answer was unequivocally Brian May, but now I'm also leaning towards Robert Plant.

I'll go with my gut, though, and say Brian May. It would be heaven to dance with him and look deep into those beautiful hazel eyes.

...but then again... being held in Robert Plant's strong embrace and slow dance the night away... oooh!

10) Curl up on the sofa and watch a film with Brian May and Roger Taylor, or go dancing with David Bowie and Mick Jagger?

Oh, dear! Why do I do these things to myself??? OK, while it would be good fun to go dancing with Jagger and Bowie, it would be heaven to curl up with Bri and Rog.

11) Spend a day photographing with Pattie Boyd, or creating art with Yoko Ono?

I would think it very interesting to spend a day with Yoko Ono. However, my heart lies closer to photography, and I'd love to get to know Pattie Boyd, so I'd spend the day photographing with her.

@laylasessions suggested I should answer these myself, as well, and I'm very happy to do so! :-D (They were questions I made up for this tagged challenge.)

1) You can have one night of wild passion with George Harrison or spend the rest of your life with Eric Clapton, which do you choose?

One night of wild passion with George. While I love Eric Clapton, I don't think I could handle him day to day for the rest of my life. ;_;.

2) Is "Magical Mystery Tour" an under-appreciated work of genius or a psychedelic ego trip for Paul McCartney?

I wouldn't polarise it that strongly (she said, having made up the question herself... lol), but I'd say it's closer to an ego trip than a work of genius.

3) Biographies or autobiographies of musicians?

Autobiographies, for sure!

4) Spend a day carousing with Bonzo or talking with John Paul Jones?

Talking with Jonesy, he seems like a fascinating man.

5) Electric or acoustic Clapton?

Oh, man, I have to say electric.

6) If you could dress like any classic rock musician for a whole year, who would you choose and why?

Not sure, but probably Jimi Hendrix, as he was who I thought of when making the question. He had the most gorgeous wardrobe; I NEED his gold braided hussar style military jacket!!

7) Ziggy Stardust or Jareth the Goblin King?

Oh *definitely* Jareth!!

8) Favourite lead guitarist in the Yardbirds?

Eric Clapton.

9) If you could spend a day doing anything with Brian May what would you do?

Talk about stereoscopic photography, music, astronomy, and anything else we think of; eat delicious food; go stargazing; and make glorious, passionate, red hot love over and over and over.

10) Do you read/write fan fiction?

I do both.

11) If you could bring one classic rock musician back from the dead, would you? Who and why?

Hmmmm... probably not (messing with the cosmic plan and all that...) but, that being said, I'd be hard pressed not to bring back George Harrison or Freddie Mercury.
