    Danny

  • Even omnipotent jun626 cannot cover this song on a pertinent level

  • @TaroGabunia

    Have you seen Jun's version that has all the over dubs and all. Pretty amazing.

  • @AliveSince69 Yes, I've seen that version too, but come on, compare it to the one on Presence

  • is this song in standard tuning??

  • @Bulletfan93 yea

  • @GutiarAce thanks a lot!

  • i recorded a cover of this, its a hard song to play

  • Comment removed

  • holy shyte dude! you freakin NAILED one of the toughest electric guitar compositions EVER CREATED!! that is WILDLY impressive! in perfect TIME; really amazing articulate sick playing... people like you are IMPORTANT to preserve the legacy of these complex highly nuanced pieces of music. not a lot of folks can pull off that tune so ACCURATELY and deftly. your the first i've seen who even fully nailed the solo (jimmy himself says was his best!).. hats off to you!! holy FUCK!

  • Very good job !!!

  • Gibson or Epiphone?

  • Excellent! could have used more crotch, though :-)

  • @es30888 0.o I'm hoping you meant more "Crunch"!

  • You did Mr. Page a great service here and this tribute is really something special.

  • wow.

  • I look up to you so much you will never know, Led Zeppelin is my favorite band till the end of time no matter what, they are just the greatest but you sir have real ability and talent, I play guitar an I'm alright but you have reached levels of guitar playing I only dream of, nice wrok enjoy all your covers man keep up the good work thanks for being so awesome Jum626, God Bless.

  • @Nigel1792 It is pretty well great wicked-awesome but there are some minor flaws in it.

  • The best rock song and guitar sound of the history(album version of course)

  • I'm impressed, you are really great guitarist with ear for music. Your articulation, bending technique, and rhythm are just perfect. And your guitar tone is excellent.

  • Muito Fera eu amo esta música este cara sabe levar

  • This is the best cover of Achilles Last Stand.Well Done!

  • wow i cant believe he actually tried this one much less pull it off. Did you know there over half a dozen guitar tracks on that song?

  • オレ、jun626の中でも、これが一番好き。

    パーフェクトだと思う。

    これ見て、ギター買っちゃったもんね。

    jun626みたいには弾けないけれど、結構楽しい。

  • This guy puts almost every other zep cover on YT to shame.

  • Fantastic... A++++ Great tone man...

    

  • Excellent

    Sick Tone Great play.

  • Page would proud!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Fantastic job jun626... always a pleasure watching your videos!

  • that was amazing,best cover ever!

  • nice timing my friend

  • Great to hear the other guitar bits that are not so audible on the original track.

  • Awesome

    

  • Treble is a bit high. I suggest a slight change of tone from the guitar and I think it will be spot on.

  • DUDE YOUR ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

  • You're a murderer, you killed the solos. Fucking awesome!

  • i love the album presence. the whole album is great, and if you think about it there isn't a song that has anything other than bass/guitar/drums/vocals on it. i loved the other albums as well, but i considered this an epic album. fantastic work jun626...this is a fantastic piece to cover.

  • I could write a huge paragraph saying how awesome this is but i guess you can picture my face with a simple "wow!" 

  • guy i got to say holy shit!!! i thought i knew jimmy's style! amazing !!!you got it down dude!! this is one of my favorite albums or cd in this day and age.why arnt you noticed yet?or are you good job keep zep alive!!!!!

  • absolutely great!!!!

  • this is a serious job man!

  • jun is so good they took down his videos for copyright infringement cause he sounds exactly like Page !!!

  • @pyrocycle786 - actually, i'd say a little better - but what the hell do i know......

    pls trolls, go easy....

  • Jimmy is a genius that is known thing, good job man

  • guy you have a private message :))))

  • awesome job at the solo man

  • Page could release an hour long recording of those opening chords, and I would buy it.

  • Simply amazing bro !!!

    I would pay to see you.....

  • thank you tokairock for posting this

  • This is why I consider Jimmy Page the greatest guitar composer ever. Sure, there are better players, but did they ever make anything as good as this?

  • @AliveSince69

    jimi hendrix...

    

  • @LfunkeyA

    Jimi Hendrix was awesome and made some of the best guitar sounds that anyone could ever want to hear, but his life was cut short and we didn't get to see his best IMO. He would certainly be second on my list for guitar composers and I would consider him a better player then Page.

  • @AliveSince69 exactley right! no one could write hits like page!!!! his music will be infamous!

  • @AliveSince69

    Exactly!

  • @AliveSince69 of course dude, the people they stole their music. watch?v=JyvLsutfI5M&feature=re­lated

  • @AliveSince69 Hendrix

  • @zoom7i

    Page and Hendrix had a knack of making the guitar a part of themselves. So few players can do that. I really believe that Hendrix and Page are neck and neck in composing and Page has the edge due to a longer writing career, Hendrix was without a doubt a better player though.

  • @real1mccoy imo hendrix was the better player, but page was better musician and composer

  • is that a Taylor guitar in intro and ending?

  • @outlawslaw1 Nop, thats a Gibson Les Paul Black Beauty 3 ;D

  • @Arturoxtei sure - what else would tokairock play? :D

  • Dude that is amazing

  • Flawless performance on all your covers. How anyone can dislike any of your amazing performance solos is beyond me my brother. Your accuracy of Page is simply unmatched. Thank you Jun for making it a better day at 5 am. Simply beautiful and mind bending.

  • Nice Love this dam song

  • Perfect job of picking the "parts" to play - there are lots of choices in this song on "what to play" at any given moments - BUT - This is exactly what a guitarist should use as his reference if covering "Achilles Last stand"

    Great work - thank you...

  • Jimmy Page is an amazing guitarist, watching these videos lets you see his artistry in detail. Jun626 is mindblowing in his accuracy and tone.

    Watch the virtual zeppelin he and vanderbilly have posted.

  • i normally dont like really trebbly tone. but you pull it off nicely dude

  • Smooth and clean! Great job! I heard this was Jimmy Page's favorite song!!

  • very nice.. i know the beginning but this is gonna give me some fun learning

    the rest

  • Really good !! is that a TOKAI ?

  • awesome...

    i love this solo

    its amazing

  • Such Hypnotic and Beguiling Chords...Truly Mystical like Led Zeppelin was themselves...

  • YOU MAKE THE ZEP FLY EVEN HIGHER , CLASSIC , CLASSIC CLASSE'

    much needed and appreciated vb . com is a good thing too.. frikinwikid

  • Achilles Last Stand...One of the best guitar solos ever (in my opinion). Jimmy Page is my favorite guitar player. This person did a good job on the song :)

  • Very very good ! ;D

  • Perfect

  • jun hi! not lisening LZ anymore (and rock musik) but coming to you again and again to lisern your GREAT performance and reproduction of guitar play ....of one or maybe the best songs of rock monsters of the 21 century. Wish you GL and TO BE A GREAT MUSICIAN!! With love from St.Peterburg Russia

  • your very good ,but lets see you shoot herion and play like jimmy

    what a lifestyle

    standing up, stage presents, posing playing to the masses,dancing on stage

  • this video is unreal

  • that is fuckin spot on!!

  • best page´s version on youtube

  • Good job man, I really admire you man good job

  • man that gets me pumped. i need to learn this song, stat

  • Nice job, dude. The way you shot this also makes it easy to understand how to play this. Yoku dekimashita.

  • great tone man, good playing too

  • is it me or is this new you fuck up again. freezing when you type, vid stoping and playing

  • @ppbsb it's not just you i've had that as well, particulary the freezing whilst typing. :(

  • i wish i could jam with you jun,your one the best i seen on you tube. Very smooth, i like your style of playing.

  • one of my favorite zepp songs

  • Excellent work.

  • what an awesome song,Page is brilliant. Fantastic playing Jun!

  • what level of phaser?

  • hey guy what effect use in the intro

    answer my question please

  • thats a phaser

  • correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure that jun626 doesnt rly use a gibson les paul. im no sure what its called but im like 99% sure that he uses a knock up version by some unknown company. still sounds bloody fantastic though

  • Its an Edwards les paul...

  • sounds brilliant. are they owned by gibson or just make copies?

  • They make copies...

  • looked it up. its a sub co. of esp.

  • Yup...

  • mindblowing stuff man. wow.

  • I prefer this version of "Achilles Last Stand" Jun covered over his latest one. As much as I love the telecaster, this song can only be done on a Les Paul. :)

  • lol im like is that two guitars... no wait thats a backing track. amazing cover

  • That was F-ing tight!!!!

  • the most important thing...the Les Paul.......only way to get that tone

  • GREAT!

  • Finally someone who uses proper tone settings rather then jacking the delay/chorus/slophide knobs to their full settings.

    Great job with both the accuracy and the tone.

    Quality editing and recording as well.

  • Agreed. Sounds great. Love it!

  • @krankopf "than" not "then"

  • @ClassicRocknRolla3 Oh well THAN, glad to see the grammar scrubbers are out in force to correct the internets.

  • lllllllllooooooooooooooooveeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeddddddddddd it

  • Comment removed

  • Jun,

    You truly capture the magic of Achilles Last Stand. You are amazing!

    Led Zeppelin may have been going through a rough time when Presence was made, but some of the greatest songs (and other great things) come when one is facing a difficult situation. Look what happens when you have your back against the wall.

  • i have never head such amazing and mesmerizing guitar harmonies,

  • @mistad00m welcome to led zepplin

  • One day.One day I'll be as good as that

  • goddamn i love jimmy page

    and i love jun626

  • Man are you related to page?

  • Yes, Plant's tribute to his former bandmate, referencing this song specifically, is ... a fitting homage, and also i wonder, an apology in a way for not doing LZ now, since Bluegrass with Alison is a more interesting conversation ... musically ... for RP to be involved in.

  • watching you play makes me realize just how fucking good jimmy page is...to come up with all this on HEROIN! FUCKING HEROIN! I will never understand how he did it...

  • Fantastic playing!

  • Super playing.

  • absolutely brilliant.

  • Rock guitar does not (and maybe will not ever) get any better than this. This was Jimmy Page's finest hour. And jun626, you play this so well it makes me want to take up guitar again (at 47!!!)

  • This was actually during one of the bands worst hours. Robert Plant was in a wheelchair because he was injured in a car crash and Jimmy Page was heavily into heroin which was introverting him and ruining the magic between him and Plant.

  • Perhaps...

    But even Robert Plant to this day acknowledges the astonishing creativity that went into Presence, despite the difficulties that Led Zeppelin was then experiencing...

  • an even through all that they still made an amazing album.

  • i am taking up guitar again, at 17. its too much to watch these videos, and NOT picking up the guitar again. good times, playing zeppelin, and i will as soon as the guitar strings arrive in the mai l!

    bless you

  • man he's a guitar hero !! XD

  • June, ive stillcomin to THIS to listern you again. So fat it is the BEST replica (music) Ive heard Best regards from StPete russia. LZ - forever (Im on trance now and all el music but LZ -forever!!!)

  • Unreal that you can play that so well... And Page was SO inspired back then...

  • dude u r freakin amazing,keep it up man

  • Absolute zep fan myself. VERRY GOOD.

  • Very good....nice Page tone.

  • To the TEE...great...

  • you play beautifully,makes me want to pick up my guitar.

  • nice! wails like a madman but as clear and accurate as JP himself!

  • the opening lick sounds absolutely perfect

    i loveeeee this song

    well done!

  • jun626 and gewerh44 are the 2 best Zep guitar imitators I have heard.

  • i like starting off the day by drinking coffee and listening to jun626 doing this wonderful cover

  • The red guitar is an Edwards...the black, I'm not so sure...yet suspect the same.

  • Hello, does anybody know what guitar did he use to play the intro?? This black guitar (probalby black beauty - but which year?) And what gibson did he use in the rest of the song.

  • If you look in his Heartbreaker solo, you can tell it's not a gibson. I think it's a Burny. Both Burny and Edwards are Japanese brands, which I think he's from Japan.

  • yeah hes japanese

  • I have loved this band for 41 years and these videos make me so so happy. Thank you.

  • brilliant. arguably their best song composition wise.

  • If you haven't been to Jun626's channel then you should shoot yourself coz you;re missing out on the most amazing zepplin imitater ever seen.

    Also if yo haven't seen his channel then fuck off you dum ass nerd. don't waste my time wtf kind of zep fan are you fuck off.

  • its "zeppelin"...

  • fuck your mama

  • u shd lrn 2 spll btter

  • you should stop fisting yourself

  • one more time - great! come to russia for a gig! contact!

  • at 2:30 look at the top left hand corner juns wering some kind of hat

  • BEST JIMMY PAGE EMULATOR ON YOUTUBE BY FAR!!! many many really really awesome covers of songs like these but this guy sounds so close. of course it rings differently but after watching all the videos I've decided...

  • ur fucking amazing, this song is fucking amazing, i love zeppelin

  • tremendo

  • Great job dude!!! Hard ass song to play.

  • greeeat job man!

    awesome! you are very good

    perfect song, perfect cover...

  • If Jimmy Page was Jesus, then this kid is probably the second messiah. xD

  • OH MY GOD I am stunned. This cover is absolutely perfect. My favorite Led Zeppelin song EVER!

  • that little downward sweep thing is much more complicated than it looks. I've literally been sitting here for the past twenty minutes just playing that. ive finally got it down though.

  • This is delicious.
