    Check out this beauty. These guys call themselves "Virtual Zeppelin" and have never actually played together in person. They just play their parts and then have them mixed.

    God this is so awesome.............

    Those guys are just fantastic, so completely accurate. The singer especially is uncanny.

    Love their Ten Years Gone cover:



    Its also worth checking out the guitarists own stuff, some awesome solo covers: http://www.youtube.com/jun626

    Wow, that's really good. You could honestly be forgiven for thinking that singer was the real-deal! He's uncanny!

    It's been a very long time since I've listened to Zep and they've just reincarnated my desire to listen to them.

    It surely can't be his voice singing though... It has to be bobby plant. :p

    LOL Robert Plant has put some weight on :D Amazing how uncanny he sounds, I wonder if he's struggling to put that voice on? Might be a bit of a curse if he ever tries to do anything non-Zeppelin and can never get away from the "Hey you sound just like.." comments.

    I actually thought they stole the vocals, that is amazing.

    The singers voice is so similar it is making me suspicious!

    Will be giving this band a proper listen tomorrow :)

    So what's the point? It sounds exactly like Zeppelin but why would I listen to someone who isn't Zeppelin when I can listen to someone who is?

    I agree, but one goes to see such a band to be entertained. I would only listen to them to be wowed, if I wanted to listen to Zeppelin, I would listen to Zeppelin, not a tribute band.

    They serve different listening purposes I suppose.

    You do have a point and when I listen to covers I like to hear something a bit different to the original.
    However, it's great to hear people put so much effort in and what's great for me is the film of the musicians playing the stuff so I can copy.
