I was sitting playing some acoustic guitar and practicing singing a little, and I had really fun playing this ol' classic.
So I decided to record it to hear how I sound. I just put the mic up and recorded one take when I played and sang all at the same time.
Sounded pretty ok I thought, so I added an electric guitar solo and some extra vocals to the part after the solo, cause the originals got drowned by the guitar.

Not exactly Plant style vocals. I think I'm a whole bunch of octaves lower :)

Haven't got enough space to upload the song here, but you can check it out here (if the link doesnt work you can get it from the page in my signature).

pretty cool, gtr tone was cool, and though your singing was alot lower, it still has the feel. nice work.:D
enjoyed this rendition....Naif .. you made it your own :icon_thum
hey NAZ. I don't play it like you do, but i like what you did with it!! (the fingerpicking). To hear you on vocals is really cool! I think you sound more "Floyd" than "Zep" on vocals, but pretty good all around mix for a full one take go. Long live The Zep!! :icon_thum
I like this. Love the tone you captured on the acoustic :thumb:
Thanks guys! Glad you liked it

I don't really know how to play the song. At least not note for note, I just learned bits and pieces here and there and cheated a bit to fill in any gaps :toothless
Also had a bit of trouble playing and singing at the same time at some parts, since I'm not really used to that.
About sounding more floyd than zep... Might be because Floyd is by far what I listen to the most atm, and has been for some time now. I just can't get enough :icon_cool

Yet again, thanks for listening and commenting. Appreciate it!
