          If didn’t tell me that you recorded this I would have never known this wasn’t Jimmy Page playing it. Nice job!

            Nicely done, Warren. How did you piece together all the parts? Was it by ear or some help on YouTube?

                Thanks everyone.

                Charjo, it was all by ear, trial and error. If you are out a quarter beat on the vocals, for example, it can sound pretty bad.

                  Very nicely done Warren. A pleasure to listen to. Nice to have Plant as your backing vocalist.

                      Warren that is a pretty advanced thing to accomplish. Well done you set some targets all the way around from mastering Cubase and of course playing that tune. So much to learn but these accomplishments provide all AM folk with inspiration. Ive a long way to go to get any where near but this shows we can get there!

                          Thanks to everyone for the kind comments.

                          I’m far from mastering cubase and the guitar parts in this project was easier than you might be thinking. If you want some details to try something similar, just let me know and I’ll be happy to share.

                            Hi, I am very impressed.
                            You have integrated Yourself in the piece. I couldn’t find really where Your Part began.
                            Absolutely great!

                            Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.
