Led Zeppelin - Whole lotta love - Live at Knebworth 1979 cover 

Thank you!!

Thank you! Definitely my favourite version of this song too :)

Thank you! It's a great riff to play :)

Why thank you! :D

I'm 3 yrs too late, but thank you! I didn't think I played it that low to be honest lol.

Late reply, but thanks Jamie! :D

Thank you! :)

Cheers!! :D

Thanks!! :D

Thanks!!

Grazie molte! È la mia chitarra preferita :D (Google translation!)

It's one of my favourite parts of the song!

Is this riff from a song ?

Ha! thanks again! It took a while to learn. I didn't set out to learn it quickly, so it was kinda slowly done of a long time, just learning little bits here and there :)

It's a 2006 Les Paul Standard. I changed the machine heads (tuners) and rewired it to have "Jimmy Page" wiring (push pull pots on each tone/volume control).The pickups used were the "Mule" (neck) and the "blackdog" (bridge) from BareKnuckle Pickups. The Gibson ones were then put into my Epiphone Black Beauty to help improve that :)

Cool, sounds like a versatile setup!

Hey, it's just something like this. I tuned my guitar to standard tuning, but it was tuned to how Page's sounded on the DVD which seems slightly lower than it should be. It's basically a bunch of power cords, but I hook my thumb around the neck which probably makes it look like something else. But yeah, these are the notes :) E B G---7777-5-33-2-3------7777-5-33-2-3-2-------7777-5-33-2-3-2 D---7777-5-33-0-3------7777-5-33-0-3-0-3--- 7777-5-33-0-3-0 33- 5 A---5555-3-11-0-1------5555-3-11-0-1-0-3--- 5555-3-11-0-1-0 33- 5 E----------------------------------------------------------1----------- ----------------- 11- 2

@@Rovanite could you maybe post a short video tutorial for those who don't understand those please?:)

@@ssssssssssssssssss50 Hi, that section is basically just some power chords descending down the neck. I don't currently have a camera to make tutorials.

My video was taken down??

@@Rovanite No. The Led Zeppelin live from 79 of whole lotta love version playing behind you was taken down.

@@ZikoHendrix Ohhh I see! Probably a copyright thing or something :)

Cheers! There is no tab as I learned it by listening to the dvd and memorising it. I *think* many years ago I wrote part of the tab out for someone but it's long since gone. Saying that it might be in the comments somewhere but I'm not sure.

Thanks!! In all honesty I have no clue whhere it's originally from, so I assumed Page just made it up. As for the tab it's something like: G ------------------------------------------9-----------------9-h11--9---------------------------------7------ D -------------------------------------------9-----------------9--------9---11p9-------------------7--7------- A ----5--5--5--5---------5-5-5-5-6-7-----------------------------------------11--------7-h9----------- E -7--7--7--7--3-0---7-7-7-7-------------------------------------------------------------------------- Those are the main bits, and just repeat those whenever I do in the video ...I'm terrible at writing tabs, so timings you'll have to work out from the video. But that's basically what I'm playing. Hope that helps!

***** I wasn't expecting a response so quickly, that's already a lot ! Thank you so much and your tab are as good as others :)

Klapeful Cheers, and you're welcome! :)

Yeah I liked that their live stuff was always different to their studio.

gomajnaman thank you! To be honest I'm not even sure I remember how to play it as it's been years! I never wrote it down so it was all just played from memory (and many outtakes!).

Rovanite well it was worth trying :D still I get a good feeling how to play, since the quality is realy good 😎

gomajnaman sorry I couldn't be more help! I think I did tab a little of it out for someone before, so it should be somewhere in the comments, but I can't remember who it was for!

Yeah I had trouble getting it right, so I cut it rather than keeping a mess in the video :P

Luis B Tortuga Thank you! It starts between the 12th and 15th fret. I don't have my guitars with me (they are in storage right now), so I can't work it out without playing along. This isn't the one I was playing, but I think this is the studio version: tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/l/led_zeppelin/whole_lotta_love_solo_ver2_tab.htm Sorry I couldn't be more specific right now, but hope that helps??

but when you have them can you help me? I really like to learn this version

Luis B Tortuga sure thing! It may be a few weeks as I'm involved in a chaotic house move, so everything will be in storage for a while. But when I get things out, I'll try and remember to come back here :)

***** Great! Thank you

***** you´re back?

Yeah it's definitely good to let loose and do your own interpretation. For this (as it was many years ago) I was just trying to figure out what he played, and as soon as I did I recorded it. Nowadays I'm more casual when playing so it isn't always a perfect copy as I tend to mix songs up a bit. :)

I don't think he did. His hand flows over the strings quite freely so it doesn't look (or sound) like he's muting the low E. I could be wrong, but that's just my interpretation :)

I checked my amp and I wasn't playing with added Reverb. It's possible you're either hearing the music playing behind me through the speakers, or it's just a natural reverb as the room was small.

@@Rovanite Whenever I try to play this song, I am always tormented because my ear hears the main riff as played with all downstrokes, which makes it sound so bad-assed, yet I've never seen Page on camera playing it that way, and for certain I am not consistently quick enough to play it that way (downstrokes). But when I see Page play alternating picking, to me it doesn't sound as awesome as it does on the original record. Now, people say that when Page was young, he could pick just much faster than later, but, I just dun't know. Plus It seems like I can hear John Paul's bass pick hits on the bass strings in there and that confuses things. One thing for sure, the echo on the main riff is a lot about why it sounds so cool. To me, if you're gonna play it live, the idea should be, that you're so damn caught up in playing it cool that you get across that you've forgotten that there is even an audience group there listening to you, and you also get across that you are so freackin out of control at the solo, that there is no telling what the riffs may end up being! That's real rock guitar, the idea being the musician is so turned on that he is just wailing it and has lost himself in it !! It's the indifference, and Hendrix had that too, just lost in his own interpretations.

Which point are you referring to? Most of the "chords" I am playing have either 3 or 4 notes in them. The rest are just a bunch of single notes, sometimes coupled up with another string to cause a duel sound.
