With Stairway to Heaven being in the news this week I had it on earlier and this came up, to be honest in my humble opinion it's probably the best cover version of any song you'll ever hear.
something to help on a damp Friday afternoon

How nerve-racking must it have been playing that opening riff in front of that audience..!!

Funny you should mention that, the female "singers" (wailers more like) who are around now, no comparison, said that to Ovenpaa just the other day.
Thanks for posting Alan

Just to add.....a freind once saw the carpenters and said the instruments panel failed for half hour but the mikes dident....so she sang without any music in the background and people were witnessing something very special...
That was her gift...her voice alone was enough...
I do wonder how big she could have been had she not died...but then again I hint he same of orbison, hendrix,elvis and a few others like bon scott and Kirkby macall....
Never mind....

A great arrangement, and it obviously went down well with the original Led Zep members. clapclap
