It is also a different time. I also remember having that Extreme cassette and how good they were. But GVF are reviving something that was considered a thing of the past that would never make a comeback, and that makes them fresh and special. Extreme was around a time when rock was shifting from the glam era to the Seattle invasion. They didn’t adjust, and became a one-hit wonder band even though they were much better than that. And right now there’s a lot of better bands than GVF, but you need more than talent to make it in music. These kids have that “it” factor, they’ll only get bigger from here on. |

I've heard them a few times on the radio, 2 days ago being the most recent. Great vibe for sure. Zeppelin flavor not by accident.

Lol Plant says the kid is a beautiful singer, and then cheekily says “I hate him”. Him saying they sound exactly like LZ1, is as much of a compliment as him basically saying that was no accident. Most of all, his misses his youth. |

They do a ton of other influences, including long jams, drum solos. Face it, they are harder, smarter, more lively and more in tune with the times now. They are not Zep, they are much more heavy than that. Listen to more that Safari or When the Curtain falls to dig into their catalogue. THey sound very little like Zep when you go deeper. And yeh, this kid is better than Plant was. Tis true. Plant TRIED to do what this kid can do. Listen to a ton of their stuff. He uses his voice as a lead instrument. Plant touched on that....but this guy takes it and runs.. Think Janis Joplin,, the use of harmonic overtones in the voice... |

Hard to compare flavor-of-the-month to giants like LZ .
Let them grow up and do their own thing; they seem capable . What hearing them made me want to do was go listen to LZ

I'll check this thread again in another 6 months...
Meanwhile, I haven't read anything about them, whether written by a detractor or an advocate, that doesn't continuously bring up Led Zep... If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and sings like a duck...

I think you might be just doing what your parents did. "oh, we had Benny Goodman", when you tried to share Miles Davis with them.
Face it, new music is coming which improves upon the old. This generation has its own sound, much to the dismay of grandpa severe. D. |

Benny Goodman and Miles Davis...Benny's heyday was before my time, but I do remember Miles being on a really creative roll when I was fairly young...
I don't however, recall any of my elders saying about Miles Davis "Oh, he sounds just like Benny Goodman back in my time…" And as I always say, music appreciation is subjective and purely personal opinion...but we can all hang out and sing & dance on the same lawn...

Anyone remember Wolf Mother?
Me neither. Good luck GVF. I listen to Benny Goodman AND Miles Davis. I prefer Be-Bop, but Gene Kruppa was/is a monster drummer. I love playing along to Sing Sing Sing. Someday I'll get it right. Some great drummers passed thru those guys.

Hey, there is one only one Plant. No one, ever, will master what he did.
But these kids are bringing the best of what he contributed back and keeping it alive. |
