JASON BONHAM’SLZE “The Song Remains The Same” Greek Theater Hollywood, California October 14, 2022

[@KK96303]

Best Jimmy Page impression ever.

[@mor8286]

JP dead ringer on lead guitar!!😊

[@robbeason]

Better than Jimmy - at least in the sense that he has ALL OF JIMMY's MOVES in this ONE performance! It's NUTS!

[@GrayWolf3334]

That guys been covering Jimmy since he was a very young man can't remember he's name but he's VERY GOOD 🎵🎶🎸👍

[@Lance37a]

​@@GrayWolf3334Mr. Jimmy

[@WeWuzKangZnShiyidt]

He's arguably better than Jimmy Page in how consistent his delivery on stage is.

[@nelsonvanvickle8862]

Jimmy Sakurai is actually an amazing and accomplished guitarist in his own right. He’s good friends with the real Jimmy Page and Page has publicly endorsed Sakurai as an honorary member of Zeppelin.

[@kenchiarito2112]

Page saw him and gave him a standing ovation. Then kissed his hands

[@OldRunt]

Really? That's amazing. Are there other honorary members? What does that entail?

[@autojohn-pu1vf]

Wow the reason i came to the comments... I'm wondering if they found a guy that looks like Jimmy P and taught him to play guitar, or did they find an awesome guitarist and made him to look like JP🤣😂🤣

[@autojohn-pu1vf]

This guy with Jason and John Paul (still doing his multi instrument jam thing) need to find another Robert Plant!!! 📣Any Robert Plants out there!?!?!? ....practically be the real deal, that guy is perty darn good but needs a wig

[@zapster2412111]

These guys are mind-blowing. Saw them in Portland Maine, out of this world.

[@kanasatka1]

Jason leaves no stone unturned. Ive seen this show numerous times. It never gets old!

[@RockandLap]

Excellent guitar, tight band, vocals right on the mark. Nice!

[@loilt5091]

We’ve seen Jason’s Tribute band twice, the last time with this excellent singer. Mr. Jimmy was with Led Zepagain, the 2 times I’d seen them. I was really pleased to learn he’d joined them!! There used to be an excellent Zep tribute band called The White, they would cover entire albums, which was an real treat for hardcore fans. 🇨🇦

[@greggibbs8641]

Yes I've seen them too

[@kevincogan5174]

I caught "The White" in S.F. and Palo altogether, Ca. Twice in '84 and Twice in '85. They were awesome !

[@timw.6910]

WOW THIS IS AS CLOSE AS You’ll ever get to hearing Zeppelin live in the 21st century

[@fuzzybutkus8970]

Forgot Greta Van Fleet. Love em or hate em they are great musicians .

[@rickdaniels1789]

Every time I hear these versions of these songs, I get the smell of the new TSRTS album cover ink, paper and vinyl in my nostrils from when I got the album new back in '77 at age 11. The pics of Jimmy in the dragon trousers were my biggest inspiration to want to be a famous guitarist in a famous band.

[@carystorm1863]

Yeah bought mine when it came out those black slip covers the whole package what a masterpiece.

[@saykids]

Mr. Jimmy always enjoy playing that. He is so lovable man.

[@RandyFricke]

Jimmy's footwork is as amazing as his finger work. Jimmy is not merely impersonating Jimmy Page. He's channeling him.

[@VmShpman82]

Do you think he watched some old Led Zeppelin concert footage?

[@markweber4854]

Jimmy Sakurai not only channels JP... he leaves out the heroin and Jack Daniels that made the original such a sloppy live player! Mr. Jimmy plays it all PERFECTLY with no mistakes and his tone is so close to the original that it's insane!

[@peter-ek3uh]

I have a strange connection with Frank Zappa and once in a while he enters the room and takes control. I have many many recordings playing in the Lydian and Dorian modes. But only a few where I am willing to say...yep he visited me. I cannot be distracted....and it made me cry. I have felt his presence. I met Frank 4 times on earth. I feel a bit of a connection with Page as well and sharing the same Birthday I think about him every year in January!

[@peter-ek3uh]

Sloppy is not always real "slop".... Page and Zappa were reinventing the solos on the spot.. There has to be no fear. And pushing the limits just goes with terrortory!!! You are bound to go over the cliffs here and there! I record endless blues jams...and each solo is a framed piece of art. Some are slightly iffy and others are...ya know!!😂.. "right there".... There is a thing called editing!...

[@recordingmastering]

Absolutely smokin' guitar player. Wow. Great performance all around. Congrats guys.

[@mikenaykki3133]

Love Mr. Jimmy great musician 👍👍🎸😎

[@0necrazywhiteboy30]

Saw them open for Peter Frampton a few years ago. Absolutely unbelievable! If you are a Led Zeppelin fan, this is a must see

[@josephtabar492]

Sounds so much like Led Zeppelin! Take me back to where I belong.its been a long time 🎶 🎶 🎶 🎶 %

[@Thomaswineman]

I can imagine all the smiles in th audience 😊

[@jeffbarnard9246]

Brings back alot of memories, grew up on this music. I remember in my parents dinning room moving all the tables out and cranking this shit up on 11 that was also my age at that time

[@keanul.5216]

It’s amazing how Jimmy Sarai has the perfect Jimmy page, tone, and technique and playing his guitar. He’s still going after his LA group Led Zepagain.

[@Richard_Lush]

This guy is great. Impressive 👍can’t wait to see the movie

[@therightisright8276]

Awesome!! Close your eyes and it's the spirit returning again full on!!

[@bluoval3481]

Jimmy, what a natural, not just by playing Zep, but just with his playing. Makes it look so, so effortless.

[@leokimvideo]

Lets hope Gibson USA gift to Mr Jimmy one of those Gibson 1969 EDS-1275 Doubleneck Collector’s Edition with Jimmy Page's DNA on the guitar.

[@kenchiarito2112]

I asked him about that. We’re all hoping they do!

[@retrorockit]

Bravo Mr Jimmy❤️❤️

[@kevinbarrett9615]

Mr. Jimmy is a rock God ! He’s actually building on what Page did originally which is almost impossible.

[@ronarmitagejr8758]

Ive never heard anyone come this close. Incredible. Getcha Pull.

[@edwardestes8038]

Guitars by Jimmy just like the real thing....BRAVO

[@danielhall-wl4ql]

yea, I'm going to wait till my buzz is gone and come back to this again, not sure what happen here really ,

Great job Jason and men your dad would be so proud

[@sylvainlaforest4393]

Very nice. I’d pay money to see that. Well done tribute.

[@ryanpekarchuk4078]

One of, if not the best Zep tributes...

[@glenchapman3899]

Well consider you have Jason Bonham on drums and Mr Jimmy on guitar. You really could never get a better line up for a Led Zep tribute band

[@ryanpekarchuk4078]

@@glenchapman3899 I can only hope they come up to Canada...would love to see this live!

[@leonardschoenborn9209]

Great camera coverage!!! Great front row seat to get the close-up shots of Jimmy. Awesome!!!

[@andyderby150]

If Jimmy Page isn’t available then Mr Jimmy is the best option!!

[@sergiocavallo8794]

Se non fosse x gli occhi tipicamente orientali,direi che è un clone perfetto sia nello stile ,nel fisico e nel grande talento alla chitarra Grandissimo.

[@jerrydonquixote5927]

One thing about it losing Bonham was one of the greatest tragedies ever in Rock & Roll, but what a blessing to have had Jason to fill his shoes! Peace from DFW Texas...

[@highlandgnome]

Mr Jimmy 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Legend

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

Notice the right hand using hybrid picking. That is what makes this song so tricky to play on guitar. And Mr. Jimmy is one of a few people on planet earth who has nailed it. Not EVH, not Hendrix, not Clapton... none of Page's contemporaries had their right hand developed like that. Kudos to Mr. Jimmy!

[@garya7893]

Page today or the last 20 years could not play this as good as Mr Jimmy

[@lesliegprice6652]

Richard Thompson has a similar technique , but yes that's how good a guitarist he is and this guy's impersonation too !

[@simonthoben189]

Steve Howe of Yes used to do that style of picking as well. You can see it pretty well on live videos of him playing his solo piece 'Clap', but he probably did it all over the Yes catalogue. Always found that style of picking quite fascinating, nice to know that Jimmy did it as well.

[@bubnick46]

I am not a guitarist but didn't Roy Clark pick like that?

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

@@bubnick46 Yes. So did Scotty Moore who was Elvis’s guitarist. (one of Page’s biggest influences). Many guitarists used it, particularly in country. But none of his contemporaries in the way that I’m aware of. Maybe Mark Knopfler but he’s a very different player of course. At root, my point is that he’s constantly ragged on as being “sloppy”. It is absolutely nonsense if you understand what he’s doing with his right hand. He’s constantly slurring, picking, bending and scraping like a paintbrush rather than trying to be perfectly clean. (“Economy picking” that came to be popular in the 80s) There’s an old guitarist from the 1950s here on KZbin that I saw years ago. He’s probably gone now. But he talked about how Jimmy used what was called then a “smearing” pattern commonly used by the likes of Chuck Berry, etc. Anyway, I could go on. There are quite a few tunes where he uses hybrid picking that just makes it impossible to play without knowing it. The Song Remains the Same it’s just ridiculously hard.

[@TheEndemicOrchestra]

Respect to the band - Jimmy has taken this beyond impersonation and made it his own. 🎯

[@Montyhugo]

Nice too see real musicians playing real music 👍✌️❤️🙏👊🤘

[@PaulyV56]

I’ve seen them 3 times. Worth every penny

[@TheRodge2112]

Mr Jimmy!!!!

[@philreeves2404]

That was simply superb. What a great musicians!

[@drivesideways6550]

Awesome footage, we saw them at the Greek Theater in 2023. Phenomenal Show! I wanted my kids (and myself!) to see the closest thing to Led Zeppelin there is. They're all excellent and Mr. Jimmy is just nails it, he's dedicated his life to it, and it shows!

[@SteveOostdyk]

Love that vocalist's voice. Wow.

[@jamiemcgill67]

He’s great. Could at least wear a wig. Just kidding. Plant would’ve been great bald too.

[@Fakename70]

Saw these guys NYE23 supporting Heart and didn’t know Mr. Jimmy was in the band until he brought the arena to life with his moves during “Ramble On”. I think everyone was thinking the same as I was: “hey, that guitarist really has Pagey down to a science! He sure looks like Jimmy Sakurai.” Didn’t find out until the end-of-set band intros that it really was him.

[@gLittle807]

One of my favorite Zep songs, and they cover it beautifully

[@sfeigh]

He has a great right hand technique. And that’s something I never say about another man.

[@DonnyOsmosis]

My mind is blown. All four of them sound amazing. Look great, too.

[@vonscharf6395]

This brings back so many memory’s from my youth . lived breathed Zep back in those days

Dude looks a lot like page!🤣 and Damn he's got the moves exact! It's feaky watching it😱 amazing job!

Awesome! I saw them here in Perth last year, great show!

This is why I play today . You can feel the feeling and energy that Jimi felt

They are complete AWESOME live!

[@SlippstersVideos]

Wowwwww felt like i was watching the movie all over again Mind Blowing performance tour de force! fkin nailed it unbelievable

[@pookie67]

Jesus for a second I thought thst WAS Page, and thought "Page plays on Jason's tours, whaat??" But it's actually this Japanese guy named Jimmy Sakurai. Incredible. Interesting to note that the real Jimmy Page HAS in fact played with Jason Bonham many years ago

[@jim8199]

Page watched mister Jimmy perform in Tokyo and was quite moved by his performance and attention to detail. He gave mister Jimmy his blessing 🤘

[@johnbedford3450]

Led Zeppelin Experience. Saw them in Dallas Texas. They Rock.

[@rwfrench66GenX]

This scared me for a minute because the last time I saw Jimmy was on a special with The Edge and Jack White and his hair was white and he looked like Father Time from that part in The Song Remains The Same where he waves the rainbow wand.

@@clutchcarabelli8054 Yeah, good point. I saw JP at the ARMS tour and The Firm. He was trying some of those jumps and kicks from Song Remains, but toned down. This guy is great, I'm not surprised Jason poached him. I'd like to see his band too. It doesn't hurt that JP loves him.
