Concert Review: Lez Zeppelin - Denver, CO
Published March 12, 2007
It was quite puzzling how really accurate they were. I have seen Jimmy Page play, and few on earth can compare. Their guitar player can compare, and I fully understand the weight behind a comment like that. I honestly felt how it must have been to see Zeppelin in a bar. Not the biggest band in the world seventies era Zeppelin, but the late 60's blues era Zep. It was that good. They have an album coming out that was recorded at Electric Lady studios (the gals are from New York) and engineered by Eddie Kramer. Yeah, that Eddie Kramer.
Another excellent component was that these girls were sexy. I am double smitten by the guitarist for being 1) hot and 2) able to play guitar like that.
If you know the Zep, you know there was a great deal of eroticism in their lives shows and blues music. To me, Robert Plant was the first and greatest 'cock rocker' of them all (later to be held by David Lee Roth and others). So, to hear these dirty suggestive lines being sung by her... well that adds another dimension to it.
So, you haven't heard of them yet... you will. This is a fantastic band who is both capable and respectful of the Zeppelin catalogue, and in no way a novelty act (like Dread Zeppelin). Like you, they are on Myspace too. Go on it, say hello, and wait for them to come to your town.
Peace.

JC,
I don't know what is on their CD, as it doesn't exist yet. I mean, it is done... but not released. As a fan of the Zep, you should definately check them out.
Awesome dude. definitely the-best-grrl-cover-rocknroll-kickarse-band ever.
ev`ryone should see them play.
Très flamboyant. I love `em!
Congrats my luvs!
All the best,
ryan
They are coming back to Denver in August at the Bluebird Theatre. Also coming to Vail, Boulder, and Aspen. The new CD is great. Two new instrumentals and the rest great LZ classics. It came out on July 10th. I have seen them 3 times in New England this year and will be seeing them in Colorado. They are awsome.
Led Zep didn't write an original song until their 4th album, so there's no reason to expect a tribute band to have any on their 1st.







Is the album a cover album or with original compositions? If it's covers, it's hard not to see this as a novelty act or a cash in for a quick buck. Hopefully, they can write like Zep too.
