So Has JLT Earned More Respect?


I use the word "earned" because it's always bothered me a little when people title topics like these with "deserve". Respect , to me, is something to be earned. Semantics, but there it is.
Anyway, what's the forum's view on this? Has he earned any more respect from people since '91?

Sorry about the "glitch"! It should of course read"Respect". Damn hooves are a bit slippery today! emoticon

Maybe Niko will correct that spelling for me??? emoticon

Overall, I'd have to say 'yes'. RB's decision to push Rainbow into commercialised dribble always left me baffled, and that side of him influenced S&M heavily. JLT was in the wrong band at the wrong time.

What he's doing now isn't a million miles away from what he's done in the past - the difference is he's a bit older, a bit wiser, and is concentrating on what he does best. The end product is now much more worthy of 'respect' emoticon

Have you worked out how to do it yet...? emoticon

Let me hear Ram and JLT first. By the way, does anyone know where I can get them?

I believe respect has to be earned and JLT
continues to earn it,my question is,just how long
does it take before he stop's earning it and actually
has it without question? emoticon

Tommy earned his respect from Zephyr, Energy, Billy Cobham and his own band. Since his death, he has deserved that respect. Just a shame that a lot of his music has been forgotten. Hence, he deserves more respect.

I absolutely agree. I'm just listening to Snapshot. The best version of Homeward Strut that I've heard.
