Mike2519 Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 I'm sure you all know the acoustic version of Black Dog off The Slog. As far as I know the guitar is original written and played by whoever made the record and imho is very good and one of my favourite to play and listen to. Has Jimmy ever been asked about it , given his opinion or maybe even played it himself with or without Robert? Thanks

I was looking at a website the other day which had over 110 different Led Zeppelin tribute albums on it. The Slog has been around for some time.
mos6507 Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 Are you referring to the one that was made by Michael White? The one that ends with a bit of keys and mandolin? I really love that one, fake or not.
Mike2519 Posted March 30, 2008 Author Posted March 30, 2008 Don’t think so, at least I can’t hear any mandolin or anything. It’s the one included with The Slog, it’s an original guitar piece overlaid with Robert Plant’s vocals sampled from Black Dog. As far as I know it’s never been known who it was by but I could be well off the mark with that. Admin, Would there be any problems with posting it here, i.e. copyright et al? If not I’ll upload a copy but I don’t want to get you in trouble or anything.
mos6507 Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 Don’t think so, at least I can’t hear any mandolin or anything. This is what I'm referring to. At around 2:04 there is some weird guitar that I used to think was a mandolin. Could be a 12-string. http://video.aol.com/video-detail/led-zepp...stic/1932621203
Bayougal65 Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 So, I have a question about this... I have this acoustic version that this thread is talking about. If this is not Jimmy playing, who is playing?
ledzepfilm Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 I think this was a various take of Swan Song if I am correct.
Bayougal65 Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 I think this was a various take of Swan Song if I am correct. I am unsure of what you mean, please explain. I do remember reading about an unreleased track by that name. Ok I found what I think you are referring to.... So this could be one of the tracks stolen from Jimmy and later released by someone else? To my untrained ear, it sounds like Jimmy... And I just thought it might have been off the Page/Plant tour... But then Robert is in top form...so I really didn't know what to think other than I love the arrangement.
