Robert Plant was one of those vocalists that I was referring to in some other thread on here. That " special voice" that is instantly recognized.

Add that to the incredible musical abilities of the others in LZ and it's no wonder they were so great !
Thanks for the reminder TF!
Jim

Stairway is still my favorite song of theirs however.

Happy Anniversary Roger of the celebration of your 29th Birthday !

Let's not leave Jagger out !

Amy

You were wonderful - it' was like I was listening to Jewel or Joan Baez.
Why you don't post like a million songs is beyond me - you are a wickedly ( in a good way)  gifted singer !
Thanks for the cover.

Very nice !
Last ending you added.... a little hard to catch the words...
but I think it was 
"so close your eyes, everything will be alright,    there's angels in the room"

It fit nicely.
Thanks for the cover !
It did have that Pink Floyd feel - very unique. smile

Good one!

Ain't it the truth !!???

Liked your emotion at the end --  I get pissed off too at the young whipper snappers that think they know everything.

Reminds of the young bull and the old bull  smile   ( Some of you will get that one)

Thanks for sharing.
Jim

Amy-

Must 've been angels in the room - I was sooo hoping you were going to do that. 
Cant wait to hear you sing it.

Unclejoe  ( Ialways think of the show petticoat junction when I see your name smile )

it's posted under my local band and me - but here it is https://soundcloud.com/tigljk/once-in-a … rl-2016-jk

Thank you AMY !!! smile

I guess you would have to believe in Angels and Miracles for this song to make sense.
I couldn't help but think as I wrote this, of parents with afflicted children, or Bill and Dondra in the hospital all those days - and how  lives  get tested every day.
Hope you like it.

here is the soundcloud link to it.  https://soundcloud.com/tigljk/angels-in-your-room-jk

[Song]
{t: Angels In Your Room}

[G]There’s angels in the [C]room , do you know [G]why
[G] Seems  they’re here [C] watching over [D] me
[G]There’s angels in the [C]room , so I won’t   [G]cry
[G]  keep’in me from what [D7]only they can[G] see


[G]There’s angels in the [C]room , oh can’t you [G]feel ’em
[G]There’s one  sitting [C]   right here  on my [D]bed
[G]There’s angels in the [C]room , can’t you [G] see’em
[G]There’s one with his[D7] hand upon my [G]head

Chorus
[C]Sometimes in life you need  help to get you [G] through
With [C] faith and love  tested like never be [G]fore
When [C]hope and trust  are replaced by gloom and [G]doom    
[G]That’s when you’ll find those[D7] angels in your[G] room
[G]That’s when you’ll see those[D7] angels in your[G] room
[G]That’s when you’ll feel those[D7] angels in your[G] room

[G]There’s angels in the [C]room ,  they never go [G]away
[G] singing  songs  that [C]make me feel  at  [D] home
[G]There’s angels in the [C]room , so I’m not  [G]afraid
[G]They touch my heart so I’m [D7]never, ever  a[G]lone.


Chorus
[C]Sometimes in life you need  help to get you [G] through
With [C] faith and love  tested like never be [G]fore
When [C]hope and trust  are replaced by gloom and [G]doom    
[G]That’s when you’ll find those[D7] angels in your[G] room
[G]That’s when you’ll see those[D7] angels in your[G] room
[G]That’s when you’ll feel those[D7] angels in your[G] room

OMG

He must practice 23 hours a day. SSS and eat for 45 Mins  then record this for 15 mins.

Absolutely brilliant. I would need four hands two assistants, and a time machine to accomplish this.
What a superb musician.
He plays sweet child of mine as well - in which he plays two guitars - not an amazing feat - except of course UNLESS YOU'RE PLAYING THEM AT THE SAME TIME!
here's the link to it  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok5d8nXAngw

I feel exhilarated and inspired after watching this, but also  depressed at the same time knowing that he can do that and I can't come remotely close.
I don't think it would matter what guitar he brings to a campfire - he can make a $15.00 guitar sing !

Thank you for sharing this TF - it was awesome!

Where are the truss rods located on Bread machines ?  smile

Congrats on the guitar JJJ !!

I respectfully disagree.

the Beatles had a unique grouping of talented musicians. John Lennon was brilliant, not only as a singer performer, but as a creative composer and lyricist. He took on many topics and addressed them ,as well the usual loves songs etc.    McCartney was also accomplished as a musician and had a voice that was  terrific.  They were balanced by Harrison's quiet but effective contributions.  When you combined them it was really a very special sound.  Elvis - as well - it wasn't just about women.  He had a voice that was golden!  No matter where you were ( or even where you are today) there wasn't a need for any announcer to say who was singing - every person with a pulse knew Elvis's voice.
CCR - John Fogerty in same boat - unique voice, extraoardinary ability to sing and take on social issues.   Again - no announcer need for CCR.

There are  many great bands today - I agree with you on this NELA......   but they lack that something special -  that sets them apart from the others, which I believe puts the Beatles, Hank, Elvis in the category of " it wouldn't matter what year you heard them, it would still be uniquely awesome" .

Just my opinion:)

Thank you for your kind words.

Ok here is the soundcloud link       

I'm sorry I am a shitty singer bc I think this is a really cute song.
It sounds so good in my head, but not so god when I hear the playback version.

Oh well, it's why  I appreciate those of you who have such talent
