    Have you heard or seen Rodrigo Y Gabriela's version of Stairway to Heaven, by any chance?

    Thanks, Dan!

    I'm not sure I could listen to another iteration of Stairway even if Led Zeppelin offered to perform it in my lower level. I always liked the song but at some point I just had to tap outl

    I get what your saying, and I’m a Zeppelin fan even if Hendrix called them a bad garage band.

    Puma Stephan brings up Rodrigo Y Gabriela’s version and it is played with a Latin twist, and will really make your system shine with timbre present around the chords and strings - it can be streamed

    Does she rock, or is it all acoustic?

    No, just pure acoustic. She does a nice job on the acoustic portion but I would have liked to see pick up the pace a bit, maybe see if she could add some vocals ...

    It was Heart at the highest level. Even appeared Plant had a watery eye, and when the Zep members stood to acknowledge the performance made my eyes water as I reflected back to the Zeppelin posters hanging in my room growing up.
