I wish Zeppelin covered <<fill in the blank>>



Hi all,

If I had my way, I'd have Bonzo's body dug up so Zeppelin could do covers of:

10) "Landslide" by Fleetwood Mac (bitter-sweet acoustic piece, Bonzo not
needed for this one)

9) "Pigs in Zen" by Jane's Addiction (If I didn't like Zep so much I'd say
Perry Farrell was God.  Anyhow, I just want to hear Plant say, "I'm in the
midst of a traaaaaaaaaauma.  Leave a message, I'll call you back.")

8) "Gimme Shelter" by the Rolling Stones (Tina Turner can sing the backup part) 

7) "Love Me Two Times" by the Doors (a nice cover, not a half-assed 45
second Doors teaser ala Page/Plant)

6) "Summertime" by Big Brother (dig up Janis Joplin and make this a duet)

5) "The Wizard" by Black Sabbath (Page-ish lyrics, plus I want to see Bonzo
drumming on this song)

4) "Pick Up the Pieces" by the Average White Band (Use Page's guitar instead
of brass. I'd also love to see what Bonzo and JPJ could do with this funky
piece)

3) "Mississippi Queen" by the Mountain (such a Zeppy song anyhow especially
with that macho guitar riff)

2) "All Day and All of the Night" by the Kinks (why the hell didn't Zep
cover ANYTHING by the Kinks?) 

1) "Funky Town" by I forgot their names (Why the hell not?  It's as bad a
synthesized song as Carouselambra.  I'm more curious than anything else,
although I'll admit this is the silliest choice of my Top 10.)


Not all these songs may match Zep's personality, but tough.  It's my
fantasy.  Deal with it :)


I welcome the list to come visit my non-Led Zeppelin web site,
