This cd was given to me by a client. I am a massage therapist, and it is perfect to do a massage to. Something vey different. Great for a quiet evening. It soothes me when I am driving in heavey traffic. Check it out, you won't regret it.

My wife and I stumbled across this CD at the Ventana resorts in Big Sur, which had them in the guest rooms for guest use. The guitarist is from Carmel and so must have given a set to the resort for this purpose. The CD is absolutely excellent. Richard is an excellent classical guitarist and your dinner guests won't notice at first that Zep is playing until they settle in. I've bought five copies of this CD now and each one has walked away with a friend. I highly recommend it.

We had dinner at a restaurant that was playing this CD. Perfect background music.

Richard DeVinck's single and multi-track accoustic guitar records (on this CD) of Zep classics make you remember why you love Led Zeppelin. Their music has a joyful magic at the powering each melody and an exhileration in the solos. This CD is one of the very few tribute albums that embodies the beauty and power of original artist's music.
I have played this CD for about 3 years now and its freshness lasts as well as Zep's originals. Richard's playing is pure Jimmy Page rendered with firm and clear notes and flavored with a hint of DeVinck's classical training of the accoustic guitar. In this case classical training does not equal passionless, quite the opposite. Enjoy.
