I was hoping this'd have the vox with it..but for anyone who has'nt yet seen Victor's version of "Castles made of sand" (Hendrix), I suggest you take a view...

[whipit4me]

Great cover,I really enjoy your interpretation,@1:28 was really a nice touch!

[lifeson241]

really good!

[Lighteye67]

Well done!

[Baltzy24]

Dont be afraid to embellish the music. Adding your own style, and soul, is always important. Nice playing overall. But when playing up the neck, in the chord which you move a half step down (pardon my ignorance of the chord name) make sure you make the one finger half step change afterwards as well, it is a key part of the whole song, if you know what im talking about.

[andrea16894]

Oh Yeah! So cool :D

[07blackdog]

Good job man.Working on this song myself!

[telemakhos31]

Nice cover. The rain song is so beautiful that it can be played in many different styles and it always sounds beautiful.

[hemabro]

Watched a few of your video's bro, and your fukn awesome!

[AshieBlueberry]

I'm just learning this song myself. Hope I can play it as well as you some day.

[AshieBlueberry]

I'm just learning this song myself. I hope I can play it as well as you some day.

[MasonIFTW]

great job just missing the cord change after one bar of X-X-12-11-10-0 it goes to X-X-11-11-10-0

[jeffydoo1]

beautiful work,thanks for sharing...

[zoradaz]

You Know I have listened to Led Zeppelin

many times in my 53 years of age. And I have to say this is excellent. Keep up the great work.

[dmallgrant]

nice job man i liked on acoustic... :) check mine out @ "dmallgrant" if you want tell me what you think..

[tengizas]

nice! 5 stars from me

[MrStittsville]

me too!

[vaibanez17]

@cloutsman And you going on mine and purposely rating it a 1 star shows your character...or lack thereof...by his lack of posting against my criticism it shows that he can take criticism but obviously you feel a need to defend him for some reason...man crush?

[vaibanez17]

@cloutsman Dude...are you serious...take notes from this guy so i can take the correct version and add notes to it that make no sense and throw it off by half a beat each time? No thanx.

[vaibanez17]

@cloutsman Yeah and it's funny, I don't see yours anywhere on YouTube...Also mine is spot on with his alternate recording from 1977...

[vaibanez17]

I didn't know by "abbreviated" that meant you were just gonna take many of the riffs of the song that were actually supposed to be played during the stuff you actually played...and that you were going to play it wrong...

[missinglink27]

good try man...lol

[raremountainbear]

@missinglink27

I don't know what's so funny. This is a top notch abbreviated version. This guy's a kick ass guitarist.

[70Jeanne]

WAW <3

[slonopochron3000]

omg so good

[nowdzzz]

¡Excelente cover! Felicidades

[skyy2]

cant believe i didnt catch this till now .......3 years after you posted......great stuff.....brilliant!!

[cdogslovergirl1]

God I love this song. Its beautiful and you play with heart and soul as well. Thank you for sharing.

[axeshredder90]

ive wanted to learn that song for a long time, that was awsome dude

[DickBassBarracuda]

This guy is the real deal!

[hobbes64]

Really good, especially very clean picking.

[xennion]

Very nice. You play it following your own style. Very original. ; )

[Maztrim]

The tuning is D G C G C D. Dropped D is used by psuedo-guitarist douches that wanna play 1 finger power chords.

[83king]

great job

[Austenbass]

nice job w the outro

[Enricoontherocks]

arrò ti coddiri

[Bascman]

wow what a great job

[funkymonkey1980]

holy crap - awesome job dude!

[noetherianring]

great!

[finsfannumerouno]

dude this is absolute top notch. Fantastic Job!

[WaltermeIon]

Watch Trobleclefts version(old dude in green shirt) full song and played perfectly

[jimmyd4025]

Very awesome demo. I love how you added a little bit of your own flavor.

[anda2345]

omg this was really good.5 stars

[mattme020202]

Superb job brother...check this one:

watch?v=cqmmTzlIXDQ

[letsgosurfing2]

dude this is sick

[0S14C3]

Just, perfect prestation !

[mrstratomaster]

AMAZING the best demo ive ever seen

[lilakath]

very clean

[stylejunkiex]

this was AMAZING! great job :]

[Myavrick]

A real talent when your concentrating on what your hearing rather than how to play the guitar. You almost seem like your in the audience to your on music rather than struggling to play it right.

[xxthedunedainxx]

beautiful man....

[hitskin666]

awesome u got the perfect sound happening there

[lancerome1976]

i cannot hate, youre pretty awesome

[juarezc16]

does anyone know the tuning for this song?

[mstargus]

DGCGCD

[StopStaringAtMePleez]

Very nice my friend.

Much soul and harmony.

[kncklehed]

Over 35,000 views so far, the first time I saw Zeppelin in 1973 it was at a sold out Chicago Stadium of 20,000. Great tribute Victor, you play it with a lot of feeling.

[HolyMotherofGrid]

NICE chords!!! Well done. You have a very nice touch on the instrument - perhaps a BIT "wooden" or stiff in places, but all in all very musical and easy on the ear. I would say you have the potential to be a REALLY good performer - keep on truckin' and your'll get there for sure.

[acko1980]

sorry if already asked but what guitar are you using?

thanks - you are total quality!

[DDEENY]

Outstanding!! This is a terrific performance of a georgeous Zeppelin tune, and you also nailed the sound perfectly. I also liked how you nailed the harmonic near the end. Great touch. Keep at it!

[gebarreran]

Ohh yeah, great

You did a great interpretation of this great song boy, cool!!

[funkathighdoses]

All of your videos inspire me endlessly. Keep them comin. You could be big yeaa.

[eightoneone]

Every one of your songs just blows me away. I have been playing for 10 years and have yet to capture that feeling that you do. Just watching and listening to you makes me want to play for another 10 years to get to your level. You are an inspiration. Thank you. (ps- if you ever make it down to new zealand look me up, you will always have a place to stay, beer to drink and guitars to play)

[spencerzdepas]

Dude how long have you been playing?

great cover

[Pantibiblon]

You quite right.Without this tuning U won't get anywhere else........

[83king]

great stuff bruh is that a guild

[ChingusChild]

That guitar looks exactly like the guild I sold last year. Yours has a great sound as well. Great playing

[GpaRizzle]

That is just exceptional. Beautiful sound, what kind of guitar are you playing with?

[francisco444]

holy shit dude..u cover the best acoustic songs there are..u should do under the bridge n wish you were here..

[homeskillet1962]

Beautiful job! One of my favorite Zep songs...

[viletantrum]

Good stuff!

[mikew909]

real nice man im going to take a crack at this

[kncklehed]

It appears Victor posted most of his songs in late 06', would love to hear more. What a talent. Your Rain Song cover stays in my head, thanks for the inspiration.

[Recovrd1]

Dude, you are incredible!

[yoyoyo17941113]

Read the info douche bag, "short demo" and all he is missing from the original is an extra verse, chorus, and that interlude part in the middle.

[roosterwes]

brings back memories awesome!

[gibsonguitar93]

yea maybe you should listen to it on Houses of the Holy...

[SummerxMarch]

amazing job!! :)

[yeahboy589]

dude, that was awesome! Damn good job.

[eddana2]

I didn't pay much attention... till I heard this! Nice!!!

[RAISINBAGG]

[lacrosse1126]

ridiculously good cover, love it man, great job, keep it up

[markofzb]

awesone, could you tell me if you are using standrd tuning and sure love to know the tab or chords

[1L0V3C1IT]

Ain't standard mucker, heres the tuning D-G-C-G-C-d <--small E

[joybuzzer]

I learned this in a standard tuning some time ago.

It's not impossible to play in standard, but as far as the sound goes...

Well, on a 12 string, who can really tell, right? it sounds the same but it don't, if you know what I mean.

[1L0V3C1IT]

I played it in standard, but the open tuning is easier, did you play it in G

[timtipton5071256]

Very damn nice victor...and with style..

[thelowmax]

Wow. Flawless. You really made that your own. Kudos.

[roz59]

Amazing...you play it with such ease...and such heart....ya got it goin' on! I am off to hook up with you at myspace. Keep the videos coming please!

[DIAM0NDR0SE]

Dude... that was so awesomely played. It brought me back Man... REALLY!! Thanks for the great tune!!!

[Wheatool]

well done.good job dude

[tonygsm7]

Awsome! Here is the setting: I was sitting on top of my car through the sunroof. It was a clear cool night, as this song began to play in my car, I pulled her closed to me and kissed her for the first time...so sweetly...during the entire song

[iamagringo]

yeah ! it was really coming for your heart !

[moitomgalangas]

dude you are so good on the guitar! awesome man!

[PikaPikaRTT6]

dude thank you.

great cover.

[tomgun7]

[chichipotle]

It sounds great guy. Rock on!!!

[mgrant121]

i love this song, its so chill.

great spin on it.

[joepiler1980]

Hey Victor,

very cool playing,

your guitar.....is it a Guild JF-30, a six-string???

You also play the really nice Guild 12-string??

How did you record your guitar? I did my own version of Karma police on my Guild JF-30 but it sounds terrible,

do you have some tips??

Good luck with playing, very nice!!!

Joep

[Greg763]

Very nice. Thank you.

[crankthetoto]

i like lil jons better

[strato311]

[acholimtats]

[cori182]

this is beautiful

i am soooo subbing

youre AMAZING!

i love this song

[PeetMoloko]

people are always on about how they think stairway is the best of zep but i always contest that it is the rain song. truly steller cover. oh yea bilbo BAGGINS. i had to do that i'm weird. [W-E-I-R-D "I" BEFORE "E" EXCEPT AFTER "C" MY ASSHOLE)]

[BazzTheBoss]

bilbo baggins? you're mad :0

he rocks though

[DerisedEgami]

Sounds fantastic. Never considered learning that one, but you've sparked an interest!

[MarkJS1991]

Top notch mate, What is the tuning for this peice ??

[candymanbrian]

For the studio version it's DGCGCD, if you want to play the live version it's EADADE

[FenderJ13]

you should try it in standard tuning, a little tougher

[ronfq]

niiiiiiiiiceeeeeeeeee! how can I EVER learn to play like you. I've been playing this song for little over year now, and I still make a lot mistakes. :(

[mrmozambique]

Brilliant, man...just brilliant. Not sure I've heard anyone play Page like you can.

[dottererb]

5 stars all the way man. great job

[Svetsarkirurgen]

I agree. Good job, but where is the Gm9? and you're a bit off-beat... 4/5

[Svetsarkirurgen]

Why do you get downrated every time you try to give someone constructive critiscism here on youtube? grow up

[sohte17]

I kno ur only trying to help it's as if ppl think ur hurting his feelings :( Nice work guitar dude this is one of the songs that can never really be cover note for note but i love hearing ppl try as it breaths new life into the song

[yoyoyo17941113]

Maybe its cause people don't agree with you

[raikchemnitz87]

nice work....great stuff like all you posted...

[bigmuzz]

[sheepmanA]
