So it's no surprise that they've played covers of Led Zeppelin songs in concert. Except for the 1980s, when they went for a slick pop sound, their music has closely followed the Led Zeppelin model, with their band capable of writing and playing everything from mellow acoustic songs to hard rock songs, just like Led Zeppelin does. From the start of their career, they've been called "the female Led Zeppelin," and with good reason. The reason this album is possible is because Ann and Nancy Wilson, the sisters who lead the band Heart, absolutely love Led Zeppelin. So the entire album sounds as good as an official release, in my opinion. It's all live performances, but some are from official albums and all the others are from excellent sounding soundboard bootlegs. I've redone it with totally different sourcing. It kind of plays like Led Zeppelin's greatest hits, but with a famous kickass female vocalist.Ī few days ago, while looking for some Led Zeppelin material for the BBC series I'm currently posting, I came across an album a fan created called "Heart Plays Led Zeppelin." (Unfortunately, I couldn't find the name of the person who did it.) I liked the idea, but the problem was that pretty much all the songs on it came from average sounding audience bootlegs. If you're a fan of Heart and/or Led Zeppelin at all, you should give this a listen. I'm proud to present this album, because I think it's really good.
