Geas heard my Zepfext that i'm having and sent me a little prezzie over in the form of this great backer....i found it quite a challenge and throughly enjoyed trying to crack the nut....you should have heard the first aahha it nearly cracked the…
The Big Bad Dog are Jon (Guitar) Gary (Drums)and I (Vocals)This song is the second run through of it ...so very early on but hey why not share......your gonna hear some more as we go on as i've started to record the practice sessions we have on…
AH! Here it is :)
And it's INSPIRED! Love what you've done with the piano - I wondered how you'd deal with making an arrangement... And the vox - woof!
Well, if Percy doesn't want to play, perhaps Mr Page ought to get in touch with you?
OK, I admit it, I don't really hold Led Zeppelin IV in the reverence many LZ fans do! I guess this song is one of the reasons for that... I'll give you A- on this one(!) but it's mainly the material you're forced to work with - tell them Page/Plant guys to buck their ideas up! hehe
another back to basics Zep this one goes out to Martin where ever he is ...he died getting on for 14 years ago but he's not forgotten ...Happy birthday for tomorrow man.....
Wasn't too sure where this was going during the intro, then when the vocals started I saw it all... This is a FABULOUS version. I've always had a love/hate/indifference relationship with this song. It's one of the few where Robert Plant's lyrics got in the way for me. But you carry it off superbly. At 5:26 I was left thinking "why isn't there more?"

Wildgeas sent me over this excellent backer and in return i sent him back a garbled vocal and a jumbled lead guitar and out of the pigs ear that i sent him ….the Surgeon that he is…cut and pasted and he has created a silk purse…i even sound…
At last... I've managed to finish something.
This was written months ago. I was about to try recording it with one or two others when this year's decorating started. With various buggered fingers, back muscles, etc, etc, I wasn't actually able…

it’s no wonder you are dieing
but I hate it, and you won’t admit it
with each day you smile
almost work, crocodile
I love you too much to criticize…
Writing this song was a very cathartic experience. This gamut of emotions took place in just one week - last week.
Unfortunately, I couldn't sing the first word without it sounding ridiculous, and so I decided to get back to my Northern roots…
When I was about 5 years old, my grandmother gave me a set of those old 78 rpm "records" titled "Songs Many Lands". For some reason this song was always my favorite... to the point I don't even remember anymore what other songs were in that collection…
Well, I play this in Fokker 7-limit Just Intonation on the piano and I didn't attempt to try to sing as high as Robert. So that makes the vocals hard to nail right there. And I played it over many times the past 3 days and my voice got worn out…
i wouldn't say murdered maybe a little beaten up though ....i love that piano work this is the first time I've ever heard it on the piano and it sounds great.....
A collaboration with buddies of mine from songcrafters.org Just dug it out again today and thought I'd share it.

Dig the band name "BBD", dig even more the big bad sound.

Nice. I'm digging the piano playing - sounds great with your singing
Excellent version
I really enjoyed this. That piano sounds great!
Too good! shyttt i wish had your voice. solid!

Now this one got me thinking... perhaps you should dip into the Howling Wolf catalogue itself? You've got the voice for it. Tasty blues vocal.
Whereas this one on IV... always liked it. Quite surprised how much I like it without all the bombast. Cool version.
