porgie66 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 The People's Front Of Zeppelin is a new YouTube channel devoted to playing covers of Zep's music, instrumentally (for now, until we find a great singer). Most of our cover videos are inspired by Zep's live style performances, but will also be posting studio versions as well. Please subscribe to our channel and follow us on Instagram and Facebook. Oh...and we are NOT the Zeppelin People's Front! 😏 Here is a link.... Hope you dig what we are about! If so, please spread the word! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, appreciate the shares! We would love to have a great singer on board , but we are still waiting. The instrumental aspect is nice though. I think it helps focus on parts that may be obscured by the vocals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

porgie66 Posted March 8, 2019 Author Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Our 77 style combo of TSRTS / Sick Again just dropped on our YouTube channel. Spread the word....PFoZ isn't fooling around. If we can find a great singer, it will be unrivalled. IMHO, of course. 😏 Edited March 8, 2019 by porgie66 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you guys could set that up with that monster '77 power sound at venues and remain clear and concise like that - that could not fail. I'd pay a LOT to see that. I'd fly to Sydney if u played the Opera House as I reckon it could be billed as a "premier" gig. Of course, you'll have to hook a brother up with tickets. The only other comment I want to make is I don't know how you are going to find a singer when the band is so on. It has to be one in a million. I hope you do. I think it could remain without though to be honest. Oh, and that is the PERFECT end to my day. Edited March 8, 2019 by rm2551 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of doubt it, but for serious fans , I think it is interesting because you can really focus on all the parts better without the distraction of a vocalist.

rm2551 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 While replacing the vocals with a guitar piece is probably going to be ugly and awkward, I think exploring this for a rendition of one of the really great live renditions of Thank You is warranted. At least to be tested/explored and see if it sounds hokey or actually works. Thank You live could be another cracking good work. Give it a go guys...

We thought about that for some of the bluesy tunes, like ICQYB, HMMT , even Dazed. Maybe a slide guitar to approximate the vocal inflections. Another idea is to do live shows instrumentally and have the audience sing along. Who knows, could be a fun interactive type experience. Depends on the songs though. Achilles would be ridiculous as a sing along. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirchzep27 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I think it works well without a vocalist, so one vote for playing without a singer. As mentioned above, i also could see you guys touring and a live show with volume being a great thing. Still the videos are a very cool illustration, one gets to see the mechanics of the songs and again its interesting without singing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks...there are a lot of people who are saying the same and we all agree as well. The primary focus right now is on the music and it is easier without the vocals to distract from hearing all the inner parts. We are posting individual instrument camera vids as well on a playlist in the Youtube channel. Here's our latest video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rm2551 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 (edited) If you guys tackle OTHAFA from a LIVE perspective, please consider 20 March Vancouver (Snowblind) as the one to emulate. Truth be told, there'd be a dozen that would KILL, but that one is a cracker. They extend on the previous night and deliver supreme. There tons of little nuances that are brilliant.

I agree with you , that's a great version...although, we already finished it last week. Wish I had got the request sooner! 😄 It's not really based on any particular version but it has some elements from 75, 77 and some delay on the guitar solo ...sort of Copenhagen Warm Ups vibe. Hope you enjoy it. It should post this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
