[ The Song Remains The Same ] THE ROCK REVIVAL --4th Night Of MSG1973-- performed by ジミー 桜井 (Jimmy Sakurai) w/ Led Zepagain at EX Theater Roppongi,Tokyo Oct.2016
I had the great opportunity to see Led Zeppelin in 1971,72,73,and 4th and final time 3/5/75 and Jimmy and the rest of the band are as close as it gets.
Please don't take this the wrong way because I regard Jimmy Page as the second greatest guitarist of all time. I think Jimmy Sakurai plays thIS song and many other Led Zeppelin Songs better LIVE than Jimmy Page did LIVE. In the studio you can't beat Jimmy Page.
of course, Jimmy sakurai is the best cover of real jimmy page...you can see this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qF3Ds0RK5TA.html, jimmy page visit jimmy sakurai to japan for appreciate his perform...awesome j.sakurai...greetings from indonesia
As close to 70’s Zepplin as we’re going to get. Jimmy Sakurai is a virtuoso artist interpreting a classic masterpiece just as Itzak Perlman interprets Vivaldi’s Four Seasons. Fantastic!
...I've been studying the Garden '73 shows for 30 years- This is BY FAR and HANDS DOWN the best and most accurate recreation of these glorious concerts...that STILL take my breath away, after all these years. This clip actually sounds like the Seattle ‘73 boot! I highly recommend seeking out this concert and listening to the whole thing! Jones and Bonham are simply incredible here.
Jimmy Sakurai is able to channel Mr. Page's improvisational stage skills like no one else, and releases the same magical cosmic energy that Page himself had onstage, I never thought I would see this twice in my lifetime. And the entire band is spot on and exudes the same energy. Amazing!
Joe, Totally agree and could not have said it better, saw them play in Dallas and Fort Worth 2 nights in a row in 1973, Jimmy Sakurai is such an incredible performer and the band is spot on as you say Thanks
Song remains the same shows at the garden will live on forever as the best ever. I saw the premiere at the argo theater in elmont. It was incredible. 😎
Jimmy Sakurai is most definitely the best at doing page ! even jimmy says he sees him when he's in town because it is like a trip in time! whoever miked the drums and mixed them are terrible at their job, this man can play the hell out of the drums !
My hair was only as long as mr Jimmy in 1973, but the headmaster sent me home saying get your hair cut son. Could not belive my good luck, a day off school, went home and played some rock music. Now he will be dead and I am still here, for the time being. Jimmy is the best JP man.
