Editorial Reviews

Time may judge this the worst kind of Led Zep mimicry, but on first listen it generates real excitement. Never mind that Coverdale is a third-rate Robert Plant (particularly as a lyricist). It's enough that the drums do the Stegosaurus stomp, and Page is more in touch with his muse than at any time since Physical Graffiti. "Shake My Tree" is the standout. --Jeff Bateman

Pretty good pure rock album.......2007-08-02

I see that some like it and some don't, for myself, I think this is a good rock cd, not a masterpiece but still worth the listening.
The guitar playing of Jimmy Page is great and Coverdale's voice is without a doubt a good rock vocalist. If you like Led Zep, I think you should give this one a try and who knows, maybe you'll like it !

Swinging CD.......2007-05-14

Page's guitar is smoking hot on this CD.
It's Plant's loss that he wouldn't get together with Page at this time.

A Guilty Pleasure.......2007-04-19

I'm not sure why so many people, myself included, consider this album a guilty pleasure. Maybe it's because prior to its release, there were so many Whitesnake/Led Zeppelin (Coverdale/Plant) comparisons over the years, that something like this seems almost taboo. Plus, I recall reading that both Robert Plant and Jimmy Page were very critical of Adrian Vandenburg's liberal "borrowing" of Jimmy Page's violin bow and guitar technique for the "Still of the Night" video. So it was a surprise to see David Coverdale and Jimmy Page get together.

Upon first hearing of this pairing, the assumption was that we'd be treated to Led Zeppelin-Lite, so there defintely reservations about what the final product would sound like. Would David Coverdale try to emulate Robert Plant? Did Jimmy Page still have the guitar chops to make a relevant album?

The answer is yes. And as some other reviewers have stated, this is some of the best material Page has put out since leaving Led Zeppelin. It makes me wish Plant and Page picked up where this album left off when they reunited for the somewhat disappointing "Unledded" album.

Had Coverdale/Page been a Plant, Page, and Jones project, it would have made a much bigger splash on the music scene. Instead, this great album seemed to fly under the radar and fade away. There was a tour of Japan, but to my knowledge, no tour of the States. And that's a shame, because it would have been a treat to see these two in concert.

The stand-out songs for me are "Easy Does It," "Shake My Tree," and "It's Over Now," but I truly enjoy the album as a whole.

If you're a Led Zeppelin fan looking for a fix, don't feel guilty -- pick it up and give it a try.

These guys should get back together if Plant is to busy.......2007-02-10

Hell these two guys should get back together and make albums and tour. I only like Coverdale in Deep Purple and the Coverdale/Page powerhouse, I hate whitesnake. Come on page give Coverdale or Plant a call again!

LED ZEPPELIN AT ITS' BEST.......2007-01-20

I just re-discovered this album recently after trunging through my Zeppelin collection. What i discovered, even after listening to the Page/Plant reunion stuff, is that Page is probably better off without the current incarnation of Robert Plant. This CD sounds like vintage new Zeppelin- it could have been a new Zeppelin album if not for the absence of one fickle Robert Plant to do this project when Page wanted to and the rest of the band. It's such a shame that the other Zep members can't reunite- considering the fact that all but one - John Bonham- and his son sounds so much like him- and that Zeppelin is #2 in the world for rock album sales. But if all other rock bands succeeded on without original members, then I'm sure the inclusion of fellow of pure Anglo-Saxon metalist Coverdale wouldn't tarnish the Zep reunion dream at all. Rock on Page and Coverdale!!

Customer Reviews:

Great Album.......2007-06-16

Awesome effort by David Coverdale and Jimmy Page. All the tracks are excellent, no weak songs or throw aways! If you like Whitesnake and/or Led Zeppelin you'll like this album. My only complaint is that there wasn't a part two!

Timeless Rock from Rock Giants.......2007-05-31

This album from two of rock's greatest giants has been around for a while now but to call it simply classic rock would be to do it a great injustice. The whiskey and tobacco weathered vocals of David Coverdale masterfully blended with the gut-wrenching guitars of Jimmy Page (and lots of lush strings) thrill from the start.
There is not a single weak track on this album; from the large and loud opening 'Shake My Tree' to the epic close with 'Whisper A Prayer For The Dying'.
Other highlights include the anthemic duo of 'Take Me For A Little While' and 'Take A Look At Yourself'.
This is one for the open road when the sun is shining.

Searing Guitar Work, Focused Vocals.......2007-04-11

Easily this disk is the best post-Zeppelin performance by Page after Live at the Greek. Coverdale puts in the best vocal performance of his career that makes the Slide It In sound rather tame by comparision. Page burns on this disk, Denny C. is an animal on drums. This just needed some better song writing as it is uneven in spots. Too bad John Paul Jones did not do the arranging.

Amazing album.......2007-02-11

Best album thus far since Zeppelin, Page shines on this effort. I hope after hearing this Robert Plant reconsiders Pages offer and joins him for a reunion.
