Carouselambra feat. Jimmy Sakurai | Led Zeppelin Cover By PfoZ 

People’s Front of Zeppelin I agree, particularly loved that outro. Makes it more like a live version with everyone stretching out a bit! Yes!!

Mr.Jimmy is out of this world. No one has ever come close to doing Jimmy like this guy. His dedication is second to none. Thxs for posting this! ✌️❤️🎸🇨🇦

You guys sound awesome! I have always loved Carouselambra, and never understood why so many other Zep fans dis this epic song. Thanks for covering it. I was wondering why your guest keyboardist Joey chose to change the outro of the song? Everyone else stayed true to the original, to be truthful I did not care too much for the spacey synth at the end. If he would of stayed true to the original (I’m sure he’s perfectly capable of it) this song would have been perfect. I have a couple of requests that I’d like to see you guys perform, Thank You, How Many More Times, Trampled Underfoot, In The Light. Take your pick. You would have to get a guest keyboardist again I really liked Joey in this video and think he’s a good addition.

John Benard we wanted to do more than just replicate it, so we asked him to do a solo. We also extended the outro groove and hit it harder than on the original. Bassline wasn’t a duplication of the original line, btw, just in the style of. We did TU awhile ago, might remix it. Thanks for listening!

Great job by all. I thought that guitarist looked familiar, he’s from “LED Zepagain”. He’s a great Page guitar player.

i’m not sure jimmy would’ve had this much energy when doing the through the outdoor sessions lol

@@lucabuchignani1141 that's true lol sure makes me wonder what a normal led zeppelin studio session would look like though

He's got the same mannerisms for sure.

@Analog Man Honestly I love this album, I've got it on vinyl and I think while this song isn't their best it's got some good stuff on it. And I mean jimmy sakurai is about the closest thing I've seen to jimmy page but if you have anyone better let me know

@Analog Man that's fair, there are better songs they could have done but I think they've already used up a lot of zep's catalog. I've only been a zep fan for a year or so now and only really have live concerts and recordings to go off of

Name?

couldn't agree more... love this song!

I like it a lot, but I’d love it if someone could remove the synths

Probably will lol

Best song on the album by a light year.

That bass line - in-fucking-credible!

That album wouldnt have happened at all without JPJ; he wrote most of the music on it, as Jimmy was supposedly pre-occupied with other affairs so to speak. This tune being a prime example, I think he basically wrote the whole tune.

@@DSG-br5lk I had read that JPJ and Robert were at the studio early and the other two late or not at all.

Yes keeping in mind that he performed both the bass and keyboard parts on so many incredible songs

A Classic Statement - That's why after John Bonham Died, They KNEW They Couldn't Go On with 75% of the Band. Jimmy Page Himself at the time in a later Interview said it, "We could've have gotten another drummer, Could've gotten the Best Drummers in the World to Audition, But We Could and WOULD Never Replace His Spirit and Emotion. As Soon as I Heard He Was Gone, I Instantly also knew - Led Zeppelin was Gone". John Paul Jones Said The Same, "How can you go on with Only 75% of Your Soul".

Wow, thanks! Glad you like it!

CaminoCarpet highly overlooked monster line. He killed the bass on ITTOD in general

@@PeoplesFrontofZeppelin well it was his album...

konstantinov sure, but people tend equate that with the heavy keyboards on ITTOD.

He Always Did - Man Has No Peer - IMO.

Kevin Stailey not gonna argue!

Honestly, I just realized that it's the vocals that ruined this song for me. This instrumental version was fantastic. There's so much going on musically that you don't realize with Plant wailing away.

@@flyinpigmusic331 I can see that. Zeppelin is my favorite band of all time and I love Plant as a singer but yeah, I can see what you're saying. This is badass as an instrumental.

It could be right off A Farewell To Kings.

Would be interesting to hear Rush cover this.

It's not necessarily Plant's vocal lines that hold the song back but that weird effect on his vocals (sounds almost flangery and with odd eq'd very trebly) and the way his vocals are placed in the mix.

Album recorded in '79 released in '80 if I'm not mistaken?

@@danmal-fx5gw You could be correct. I'm just going from memory. I got it when it first came out in my area.

ive been telling people this song is truly amazing since i first heard it when i was 16 (im 31 now) and to this day i dont think anybody ive ever shown it to has liked it. people are crazy

​@@StoneDeceiver plenty of people love this song.

@@toddinthemiddle more than plenty don't

I agree, the resemblance and even his expressions are uncanny and a little spooky...In a cool mystical way. Maybe he actually is Page's love child...?

@@polara01 just maybe!! I wish we knew for sure lolol

Most likely; I would just LOVE to know myself, too!

@@polara01 There is a video where Jimmy Page goes to see Jimmy Sakura's Led Zeppelin tribute band in Tokyo. He said he wasn't nervous playing at all, forgot that Page was watching them play for two hours.

Thank you

Not to mention the tuning of the kit ... perfect sound

So satisfying to see George perform on point. I wanted more of George’s cameras.

Not to mention that the guitarist even looks like Page. 🙂

Few approach the Bonham sound, style and feel. George Fludas is the number one drummer of the very few.

TumblingDice thanks, and yes, we agree re: Carouselambra!

Yeah, this and In the Evening, only two songs I can stomach on this album. Sometimes South Bound Suarez.

Im gonna crawl is excellent too. Took me a long time to realise, and its a great closer. ​@mikek8553

@@brianorakpohit Yep. It's the other gem on this record.

Thanks very much!

DonSolo328 thanks! Usually we do more to make it sound live but this one we had to wait until the outro.

Ted Arnold thanks so much!

Eric Domeyer thanks!

@@PeoplesFrontofZeppelin i am speachless to see what Led Zeppelin was doing in the studio. Its like looking in a time machine

Eric Domeyer thanks so much! Tell your friends!

@@PeoplesFrontofZeppelin i will do that

Douglas Wells George does kill it! Thanks for your comments!

Jonesy brings it for sure on Carouselambra. Thanks for watching!

thanks!

** great! Thanks for watching!

Joe Cupano He’s great at what he does, no question! We are very grateful for his help!

Jimmy S. was also in a band in Japan.. Tribute to The Firm. The only videos I’ve seen were a mashup of different songs from a concert, no full concert or any full songs.

Haha, I'm not that freaky!! I played along with the album version, then extended the end. But I think I can play it from memory with some homework! 😄

@@BONHAMOLOGY Haha well either way, I do hope this opens the door for you to connect with Jason and have an 'all things Bonzo' meetup session with you, Jason and Terry. I would seriously pay money for that!

I was in Vegas a few years back and just happened to see that a tribute band called Led ZepAgain was playing the one casino in North Vegas and decided to attend the Friday night show. It was during the short period when Sakurai was playing for them and I had to pick my jaw up off the floor, it was the best $5 I ever spent and a few minutes in a knew where I was going to be Saturday night also...spending another $5 to see him play again! Don't get me wrong, the rest of the band was good, but I'm a huge Page fan and Sakurai blew me away. I can understand why Page himself has gone to see Sakurai play!

Gregory Markle he’s more Jimmy than Jimmy!🔥

Greg Markle Saw him three years ago with Bonzo Jr in Montreal. I was stunned, amazed, pleased and so happy about the fact that it was the closest ever I would ever get to a Zep gig in my whole lifetime! They were both amazing, but Jason was just a little but too much with all his nostalgia triggers...

JS could beat anyone in a LZ air guitar competition, even me !!! But in the real world. JS is the King!!!

That came later though , he's quite close to a 1979 version Page

@@peterdavies4623 Hahaha, indeed.

Thanks! They never played it live, but it was supposedly considered for the 80 US tour that never came to pass.

BONHAMOLOGY I have heard really poor quality rehearsal tapes of this song, it would have been incredible live. This version is excellent, it grooves.

That’s his thing for sure

Robert Andrew Hale thanks very much!

fukin eh. too good

I was thinking the same thing. He even has the movements down. All he needs is the cigarette in his mouth.

Aso.

Jimmy circa 1973.

jajajajajaja

That was a fun one!

Underrated song!

🙏🏼👍🏼

Same here

Thanks !!

Thanks so much!

Four?

Thanks so much!

Ha, we definitely took it out there!

This really means something coming from you, KILB!

David Smithwick thanks very much!

Thanks!

Leandro Aquino glad you have a new appreciation for JPJs bass line! Thanks for watching!

Bruce Buckeye hey Bruce, been awhile since BZPC! Hope all is well!

@@PeoplesFrontofZeppelin The FBO email group is still going strong, let me know if you want to join us! Stay well! Bruce

Thanks! Underrated classic

Thanks very much!

You can see the base players face in this band doing this song ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NECfRohWNWw.html

Bob Weber thanks and to you too!

System 3 that’s his thing alright. He is detail oriented like nobody else

😂 That's brilliant, for a minute I thought it was actually page. He does all the facial expressions aswell. Good job.. I enjoyed listening👍

I think these are vintage ProMark Rock sticks , which are like a 5A - 5B. Yes, I switch up sticks often.

Thanks!!

Nick-O thanks, hope you like it! Headphones for sure on this one!

Thanks very much!

John Strausbaugh thanks!

Mark Kugs we shall see, very generous of him to do this one. Thanks!

@@PeoplesFrontofZeppelin so here's my request ,,,I know cart before the horse,,,since I've been loving you 1973 😁 also want to say , sorry bad with names, but your other lead guitar is also excellent !

Mark Kugs 🤔
