VH sisters (and son) play what Roth tells them to......2 or 3 Dave tunes + the Classic VH and Zero Van Hagar shit----No discussion or no tour. Dave holds all the cards-------Don't be fooled! Wait and see......

Page/Plant '95--Percy sang a Coverdale/Page tune...so, hey ya y'all, ya never know...

WELL,percy and pagey are well known for playing covers and claiming them as their own.

"boogie with stu" by led zeppelin="ooh, my head!!" by ritchie valens.

same song, they just changed the name. ritchie's mother sued led zeppelin for copyright infringment and she won. percy,jonesy and pagey have to pay her the royalties for every copy of "physical graffiti"
that sells. they are still paying the valenzuala family to this day for that mistake.

I'm well aware of that, homeboy. My point is Robert Plant hates David Coverdale, claims he stole from Percy a whole lotta...but Page/Plant still worked up,"Shake My Tree," live in '95...

Ooh My Head was stolen from Ooh My Soul by Little Richard.

[ace diamond]

be that as it may, the valenzuala family owns the copyrights. and besides,led zep copied the ritchie valens song,not the little richard song. go listen to them both again.....i think you will find some distinct differences between little richard and ritchie valens.

ooh, my soul and ooh, my head.....while the names are a little close,are not the exact same song. they are not note for note,word for word the exact same tune.

however,boogie with stu and ooh,my head are the exact same song,word for word, and note for note.

as to plant hating coverdale......i don't blame him. david coverdale is an asshole.

however, a good song is a good song. and shake my tree was a damn good song.

Hell Yeah!! That's why I hate it when cats or kitties complain about Van Rothin' playin' a cover tune...a good song is a good song is a good song...Ize don't care if yer mammy wrote it!!...

Page said something funny about this subject in an interview Ize cain't remember where...somethin' like Robert was always supposed to go back and change the lyrics...he never did and it got us in trouble...he also said something about the people that sued them usually sued them over the lyrics...not the music(as in Whole Lotta Love and You Need Love don't sound similar musically)

Originality is the art of concealing your sources.

Well considering Yankee Rose is currently on Wolfies Myspace page - who knows.

[DLRdelight!]

i say keep it to cvh material

[DLRdelight!]

and yeah you dont want any spambo shit

[TongueNGroove]

Althought EVH has been known to do a cover or 3, he would never do any Vai or Becker tunes because t hat would be degrading to him as a "Guitarist". That is like taking a step down for him....


He might play some Dave tunes (i.e. California girls , which is a cover in itself), but he WILL NEVER play a single tune that Vai or Becker played on.

[binnie]

With 6 albums of great material?

Doubt it.

[chi-town324]

never gonna happen..Eddie wouldn't play any of it...although i agree Tobacco road would be awesome, and its a cover so maybe that would happen

[Coyote]

Suppose Ed would want to play Yankee Rose, would it groove like the original? Especially the last minute or so of it... (Y'know, the "here's the national anthem" bit)

[DrMaddVibe]

Ya know, I don't see them playing Dave's stuff...because they can't! However, I could see the curtain dropping while "California Girls" is playing.

anything from eat 'em and smile would rock!
