A Led Zeppelin classic that reminds me every time I play it of the genius of Jimmy Page.....thanks for listening!

Nice job Dale. Great time and feel as usual. I've seen quite a few of your vids and always enjoy them.

Cheers

Hey! The video has been removed!

tonedr's video was blocked (at least here in the US) by Led Zeppelin's publisher Warner/Chappell.

Glad you could see/hear it in London Sean; couldn't here in the US.

I play the tune too. Really like it.

It's no longer available here. I used to play it too. Can't remember what tuning I used but I do remember it being relatively straight forward to play which kind of allowed you to put every effort of feel in to it.

I must relearn it as it's a great tune.

Geez, someone can't even play a famous song without the copyright police taking it down. What's next, are they going to bust into my house when I'm playing it :roll:

I'm sure it was great Tone, just like all of your stuff.

Are you signed up to earn money from your videos?

I think they get more scrutiny if you are.

Funny... LZ ripped off so many other artists, and you can't post a simple amateur cover.

i am not signed up to earn any money - really appreciate each post and the discussion on what unfortunately will most likely become more of an issue:(

Yes , It's a shame to see the ugly business side of all this.

But their manager Peter Grant was always very hot on the business aspects of the band. Weren't Led Zep the first mega band to have their own Jumbo Jet? The money came from somewhere and I guess it wasn't by having blasé management.

Even still, I can't see how these youtube renditions of their songs could harm their business interests.

Agree sir....it really isn't a huge deal for me because the last thing i'm trying to do is make $$ on the vid or keep $$ from going where it should. My strong belief is that imitation is the greatest form of flattery, and some nobody like myself trying to make this song come alive does more for the original artist than it could possibly take away.

More importantly i'm reminded that Jimmy Page is one of a very small % of players who created timeless music on guitar that for me is worthy of trying to learn from and reproduce.
