[Mister Acrolite]

Quite a few of us probably can - do you have a specific question?

Check out these books - perhaps they'll help.

I would try but I am 14 drum part promises behind.  Why does it have to be on 8 track?  Just curious!

[Mister Acrolite]

If you can't find anybody who has a way to record the track and send it to you, you could try searching for a MIDI sequence.

Here's one page where I found a MIDI sequence for "Stairway," but I'm sure there are plenty more:

With Bonham, it's not what hes playing but how hes playing it.

I've found that incorporating the cabasa part that always seems to be in there ;) into the kit groove for your zep covers, will go a long way in trying to sound like Bonham.  The cabasa in Bonhams grooves reminds me of the sound of a freight train letting of that steam every upbeat :D

Something about the cabasa, hats, shakers, hat tambourine in Zep tunes that just get in my bones hardcore.  Then underneath all that, his bouncing BOOM of a bassdrum and solid back beat on the snare is pure earcandy.

Find a good transcription of the part and program it on something like CakeWalk or some other similar program.

You can use drum samples which are also readily aveilable and sequence it as MIDI (Which now I noticed Mr A already suggested)

[led_zep_forever]

it is in about 2 months...you have plenty of time...drum quality sonds a ton better on a tape...cd drums arent as full. and it is cheaper for you.

What about the bass part?
What about the singing?
What about the armadillo in your trousers?

Why not just do it "raw" and wow the crowd, as opposed to doing "guitar karaoke"?

(Color me confused by the whole thing.)

u cant play the solo without the drum part...i can sing it.
