BACKGROUND
Nothing big or clever. Three Led Zep covers, created by three exceptional talents with an exceptional sound. Yat-Kha's recent collection of rock covers could appear a novelty on first listen, but once you uncover the passion with which they were produced, you enjoy them all the more. Same goes for the bluegrass Zep covers, which have a mixed result, but I find this version of Ramble On, quite stimulating. And finally the late great Tiny Tim, included solely because I'd love to hear him on Late Junction and then read the messageboards the next day.
