Pagesbow Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Any you particularly like? (Or dislike) I've always liked Tori Amos' version of Thank You, however, her version of Down By The Seaside with Plant, was pretty awful. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYXWunJQkTQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Z(oso) Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 This is an amazing cover of Kashmir, done by the late great Kevin Gilbert. Definitely worth looking into his work if you've never heard it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuthbert Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Communication breakdown covered by Iron Maiden is amazing, it was the first Led Zep song I heard and I understood I was going to love that band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely worth looking into his work if you've never heard it. Yeah, that's definitely an amazing cover, thanks for posting...apparently, from what I've just read, it was meant to be on the Encomium tribute to Zep album, but was pulled. Shame, would have been the best track on there....although I do like this version of Dancing Days form that album... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hush Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Hey guys, what do you think of this cover we 'jammed' up? I think the guitarist did a brilliant job of mashing up all of my favourite Page parts from all versions into one. would appreciate your opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should call the band Sapphire Fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northstar Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 When a band or solo artist does a cover I like it best when they put thier stamp on the song and make it thier own. If they are just going to cover the song with the same arrangment as the original artist then usually the original artist's version stands alone as the best version. After racking my brain I think a good example of making a cover song thier own so to speak would be Toad The Wet Sprocket's cover of I Wanna Rock And Roll All Nite from the Kiss tribute album Kiss My A**. In my opinion Toad did a great job. Northstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvlz2 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Immigrant Song - Karen O with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Taken from the original soundtrack album 'The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I don't really like any of the cover songs. The best I believe is Rock And Roll by Van Hagar. They really did a good job but they were just eclipsed by how amazing Led Zeppelin performs the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAS Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 The worst offenses: Mary J. Blige - Stairway To Heaven Dolly Parton - Stairway To Heaven Kiss- Whole Lotta Love But let me not forget to give mention to the catastrophical abomination Immigrant Song by Trent Reznor (wasn't that the name of a Super Mario World boss?) and Karen O. Miss O even stated after she'd recorded the cover that she didn't know who Led Zeppelin was and she thought she was singing a song named "Pilgrim Song." And Reznor said that the song was "more aggressive" then Led Zeppelin's original version because they were ignoramuses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zepscoda Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I love this, most likely not everyone’s cup of tea, but worth a listen........nice choice of zep tunes and I dig the lowered pitch on Roberts voice. Makes me feel like I was back in the day, enjoying whip its at a dead show, but I digress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidZoso Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I like Megadeth but I don't really care for this cover. But very interesting - Jimmy Page actually got in touch with Dave Mustaine and gave his approval. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTM Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 Sheryl Crow - D'yer Maker First time I've ever heard anyone call "D'Yer Maker" ''Die a Maker'' Back when HOTH first came out the talk in my peer group was whether or not the title was either a play on "Did you Make Her" or "Jamacia".
