Heart - Rock & Roll (live 1978)

Oh, my God! My heart! What a singing voice! Ann is simply and solely grandiouse!!! Thanks your sharing!

If you know anything about Heart, it's that they absolutely idolized Zeppelin. Ann is one of the few artists who can sing a Zeppelin song and not sound like they are trying too hard. She can actually do it justice. And Zeppelin overrated and Plant not a good singer? Give me a damn break - please. They are the best.

I agree. I always felt Ann was a little gun shy in her early covers of Zep even though Robert Plant always encouraged her to let it all out. It wasn't until Jon's death that Heart's RnR cover really took shape. See Chipi64's 1980 and lovesheart's Dortmund1982. Nancy discards the keyboards for her kickass rhythm guitar, Howard Leese "reveilles" the break, and Ann blasts down the Berlin Wall with those enormous pipes. I love Zep, I really do, but live ... it's gotta be Heart. It just does.

Amen Cindy- you said it!

Zeppelin was groundbreaking and the first to really get big with their sound. Robert's voice is a great instrument though.. he abused it, but it still hanging at 60, the O2 concert in London proved he still has it, Ann Wilson destroys on this cover, her improv is wicked,

ann and nancy with page and plant photos can be found all over.

as Heart has done a number of Zep covers

Zeppelin didn't need a rhythm guitarist. John Pauls bass covered a lot of ground, not to mention Bonzo played great fills to keep things interesting.

True,however it would have sounded even better if they had one to do the rhythm parts Jimmy did on the albums.

I wonder if they've ever met.

Yes I have a shot of Ann and Nance with Plant.
