Greetings all! I've covered a song by Horsie's favourite band!
Now, it stinks, but I'd done too much work to give up on it so I threw everything together tonight and uploaded it.

I am uploading this in the hope that it will inspire Treasure Moment to upload more music. Farewell!

IF Robert Plant sang like you he would have been killed by a flying boot from the audience long time ago.....
But...
Hence you are not Robert Plant- than I can't slate you for it.
So....
That was a great fun. Well done. (Especially if you played all instruments).
HA! I have no fear of flying boots - I always keep something between me and the audience. :P
Cheers!

The vocal was actually my favourite part. Late 70s Plant is not easy to capture, and you came pretty damn close.. !
I quite dig his sound around that time (and the Knebworth shows). Of course, trying to ape his vocals from 10 years earlier would be futile ... and physically painful !!
The thing I dislike most about my effort here is actually the guitar sound. No matter what trick I tried, I couldn't figure out how to get the one on the original track ...
Anyway, cheers!

For starters, you used a Fender Strat. For Page's sound you need the snarl of a Les Paul over the clarity of the Strat.

What kind of mic, amp, and preamp are you using?
Oh nah it was all modelled stuff. I know someone with a Les Paul but I couldn't get my hands on it when it came time to do the thing. The Variax I was using does have a Les Paul setting (which is what I had going) but naturally that's only convincing half of the time.
The amp stuff is all Guitar Rig 3. It's peculiar in that there are a lot of sounds you can mimic with that program, but the Wearing and Tearing sound is something else. Making the cabinet smaller, changing the mic setting, making it very roomy and doing some octave doubling went some of the way, but I guess to get THE sound I better use real gear! Hehehe.
