Led Zeppelin's Black Dog by The Soul of Zeppelin - live!

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ต.ค. 2022
  • The Soul of Zeppelin was founded by award-winning composer, guitarist and educator, Carl Baldassarre. During COVID, Baldassarre had a vision to handpick superb musicians and a compelling lead vocalist that could unlock the secret of Led Zeppelin’s sound. The secret of Led Zeppelin’s sound is hidden in the ability to improvise and to channel the band’s influences: which includes blues, funk, soul, swing, jazz, R&B, rock, country, and classical music. Like Led Zeppelin, The Soul of Zeppelin improvises their way through Led Zeppelin’s greatest songs while channeling the band and their influences.
    As a highly acclaimed guitarist/connoisseur of Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin, Baldassarre has a vast knowledge of Led Zeppelin’s history which he shares during each show to enhance the experience.
    The result is not an imitation or a caricature, but a living musical experience of the magic of Led Zeppelin in a presentation like nothing else in the world.
    Featuring:
    MARCUS SCOTT - vocals (Tower of Power)
    NICK D'VIRGILIO - drums (Tears for Fears, Genesis, Big Big Train, Spock’s Beard, Cirque du Soleil)
    CARL BALDASSARRE - guitars (Abraxas, Syzygy, Baldassarre)
    JACOB DUPRE - keys (Glenn Miller Orchestra, Artist in Residence - Sweetwater Sound)
    AL ROLIK - bass (Syzygy, Baldassarre)

    Big props. Ya'll killed this piece. First band I ever heard that could nail Zeppelin. Yes, your singer is uncommonly talented, but there's not a weak link in your act. Good to see you book a big house - and that they loved it. I've been listening to this tune for 53 years... never seen a band attempt it, much less pick the lock ! I'm a guitarist too and I love your work and your instructionals Carl. Bravo.
    Best cover I've EVER seen.......
    Much success to you and the band.
    Keep up the great work !!!

    Wow! Tight AND Theeeee Groove………this isn’t a tribute. It’s a group of musicians that love music and put their soul into THEIR interpretation of what that song means to them. Thank you! I’m sure if Page, Plant or Jones come across this, they will listen til the end and approve. Because they never played the same song the same way on any given night. It was how they felt in the moment and you guys captured YOUR moment.
    Cheers to you all!
    Vocals, drums, bass, guitar and…..keyboard! Nicely done boys!!!

    I have to admit, I really enjoyed this vid! The lead singer really captured Plant's primal vocals. I learned this tune on the bass years ago (or should I say decades ago now?). I plan on re-learning it as soon as this damn neuropathy improves (stupid chemo meds!).

    Great interpretation and playing. As someone else said - tight - amazingly tight! This is very tough for us mere mortals to play from start to finish and keep it together as an ensemble, that bit where the guitar and bass get a half beat ahead of the drums (or whatever it its), that alone would make my head explode!! 😀

I'm not sure what state you guys are from but if it happens to be Ohio, and you ever need another drummer, reach out to me. I can play all these songs, and can even sing a few of them, and I have a Ludwig clear Vistalite Bonham reissue kit. Just saying haha. But your current drummer is really great. All of you are. Hope to see you guys live one day.

    Excellent version!
    My only complaint is the sound man is stingy with guitar volume. Led Zeppelin was a guitar driven band. The guitar is being drowned out by everything else. It should be more up front and most definitely during the solos. The intricacies of the solo were not shining through.
    Otherwise, great job guys!

  • @AriMarsh
    @AriMarsh ปีที่แล้ว

    Phenomenally talented musicians and Carl’s guitar analysis videos are awesome, but for the sake of honest feedback, this feels too fast for Black Dog, it’s being rushed and somehow missing the groove. Also the keyboard is overpowering the guitar and it changes the whole character of the song. Doesn’t sound like Zep because of that. You need to be way more featured in this, Carl. Jimmy wasn’t a background guitarist overpowered by an organ player. Keep at it though, you guys are all brilliant musicians.

      Right! I’m on break now from performing and I’ve already started some new breakdown episodes! Both Zep and otherwise. In terms of content portfolio construction, I’m taking the long-term view which is to add live content to prove I’m not just a talking head that only teaches because he can’t actually do it for real! My channel is still young, but hopefully I’ll hit a tipping point so when people find me they’ll have a wide range of back catalogue to experience. But I agree with you!! My bread and butter are my breakdowns and insights. I’m not going to lose sight of that!! Thank you for bringing it up!
