StarkRavingCalm Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 What about Dread Zeppelin? Their versions were very creative. "Heartbreaker (At the end of Lonely Street)" was great!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperDave Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 I have a version of U2 doing "Whole Lotta Love" on their PopMart tour from 1997. I believe it's from somewhere in Scandinavia, perhaps Stockholm. It's a couple minutes worth of it at the end of "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me". They don't take it seriously. Basically having some fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deborah J Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I have to confess that Randy Jackson with Zebra is from my home town New Orleans and I went thru the 80's seeing them over 50 times, but they are an awesome cover band when it comes to Zeppelin. Randy knows my heart is with Led Zeppelin, but his solo and Zebra 's music is awesome. Randy Jackson - NJ Symphony - Kashmir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy knows my heart is with Led Zeppelin, but his solo and Zebra 's music is awesome. Randy Jackson - NJ Symphony - Kashmir I have to agree. Zebra is an awesome band in their own right but they do some covers of Led Zeppelin that are truly amazing. Almost every song on their debut album, ZEBRA, there is some kind of LZ riff or sound on every song on that great debut album (or CD). I have to say that the original members of ZEBRA play their songs in the same vein as the "mighty Led Zeppelin" is because they were and are truly fans of Jimmy Page/Robert Plant/John Paul Jones/John Bonham.

moonson Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Robert Kuhlmann & the Flying Boats -Down by the Seaside from the mid 80s "The Song Retains the Name" album. didnt find an online version tho.. but a very refreshing interpretation, sounds almost nothing like the original. think LZ could dig that approach to a cover.

snapper Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 One of my favorites, its instrumentental but it rocks, especially the drummer. Things get a little weird/messed up during Black Dog, but its Buckethead...he's a strange character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeppelincheetah Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 my personal favorite is Stone Temple Pilot's Dancing Days. It's the only cover I've heard that just might've surpassed the original. I love how they went their own way with it and made it a very different song: other good ones: Tool's No Quarter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdQGSykj6vo Kashmir by Maynard James Keenan (of Tool and APC) & Janes Addiction (live) Godsmack's Good Times Bad Times: (music starts at around :40) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpiePlaBZv0 I also like Nirvana's covers (they're not very good but Nirvana's my second favorite band, these were all played long before Nirvana became famous so are unfortunately pre- Dave Grohl... ) Immigrant Song (probably their most well known zep cover): Heartbreaker (at their first ever concert): How Many More Times (jam - same concert as above): Dazed and Confused: another cover that's worth a listen (and viewing) is Stefani Germanotta (later known as Lady Gaga) covering D'yer Maker: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy'sgirl Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 i really enjoyed the cd emconium and especially dancing days. im gonna try to find it again somewhere i lost it along time ago. i know ill get laughed at here but i did listen to a cd of white snake doing all led zep and thought it was pretty good but that was quite a few years ago i have seen three cover bands of zeppelin and recommend all three.

Stargroves Tangie Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Just remembered this one today- "Whole Lotta Love" covered by King Curtis. Atlantic Records released a 45 with Zep's WLL on one side (Atlantic label) & the King Curtis version on the other (Atco label). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I really like Randy Jackson's covers of the classic Led Zeppelin songs and Pink did a really good job...I was hunting around YouTube looking for gems and found this Stefani Germanotta (pre Lady Gaga) performing Led Zeppelin's "D'yer Maker" live at the Bitter End NYC in January 2006. It's actually not a bad cover and Dyer Maker is a tough song to pull off... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumbogirl Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi -- I'm just visiting here to share an unusual bluesy, jazzy, groove improvised acoustic version of Whole Lotta Love. This was performed Feb. 27 by Adam Lambert at Fantasy Springs. There are some vocal pyrotechnics, but mostly it's cool for its sustained groovy vibe. It's still sex for your ears. I hope you enjoy it! Here's the link: On guitar: Monte Pittman (Madonna's guitar player) Keys: Zac Baird (of KoRn) Bass: Tommy Ratliff Percussion: Longinue Parsons (of Yellowcard) (I see someone made a post about this, but it belonged here in your discussion of covers.)

FlowerStone Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Hello, people we have just found out this wonderful forum, members are very skilled. We hope it's not unfair if we post something performed by ourselves. Here are the first jobs we have uploaded on Youtube, Stairway to heaven http://www.youtube.c...h?v=eN5UexRMdS0 and No quarter http://www.youtube.c...h?v=NYbnkj1HduI audio quality is good, while the video recording was not planned (it's an "emergency" take) we are also going to upload "Moby dick", "Since I've been loving you", "Whola lotta love" and something else, as we assemble them with photos, audio and video tracks; until april we'll know our summer 2010 plan, and post it. Thank you FlowerStone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you FlowerStone Good evening, guys I was at a Flowerstone show on summer 2009 during my holidays in Italy and it was stunning. I guess the show that I saw is the one of this two videos. People was really excited, and the show went on for more than two hours. I'm from Germany, Led Zeppelin is my favourite band since I was 15 years old, and in Germany I watched hundreds of Zep tributes, but... Flowerstone is different, something else. Flowerstone's show sounds "professional", and the sounds are very very similar to the ones of "The song remains the same". This videos really doesn't show the deadly interpretation of the band, the camera is too far, but the audio is very good. No doubt I suggest you to GO AND SEE THEM!
