Playlist of all the other songs from this night /// kzbin.info/aero/PLsZfB6Vh877QcZ8fPECSSmkV06A1goNyy

[@mikaldene7146]

I've watched that solo a dozen times and that's way beyond normal. How many guys do you think could pull that off flawlessly? A handful. Freaking genius...

[@Kamanya]

Christ! How hard is that bass holding it all together? Just so slickly smooth and locked in driving the song. Bravo!

[@mikaldene7146]

This is the best version I've heard live outside LZ themselves in years. All of you rocked the crap out of it...

[@frankmoore1299]

Absolutely fabulous rendition of a legendary classic by the boys from England. The lead guitarist’s interpretation is mind blowing. JP would be mighty Impressed

[@jamesrogers6260]

Bass player nails the grove. Lead guitarist goes out into psychedelia outer space and brings back a solo better than the album. Singer really shines on acoustic and vocals. Drummer keeps it all snappy. Great job guys

[@andreouellet7677]

This deserves way more then 52k+ views - incredibly smooth performance of an incredibly smooth song. Just can't enough of watching and listening to this.

[@souldrifter9484]

Richard Corson's solo is amazing!

[@saju8263]

This is so good that it makes me want to move to the U.S., hang out at this venue and listen to these guys live. Such a great atmosphere. Just beautiful.

[@receptorpol]

Yet again YT produces unbelievable gem here. Magnificent rendition of Zep classic. Love it. Thanks for uploading this.

[@davei361]

Sitting here on a Saturday morning listened to this one song for the past hour, pure brilliance. Everything is in such sync, singing drums and guitars and the look between the lead and bass at 7:28 tells you just how in sync they are. Drummer makes it look so simple, but it's not, and Eric makes it sound so smooth....fantastic. Thank you gentlemen.......

[@kecom6184]

Truly an amazing cover of Zeppelin. Rarely do you see someone cover any Zeppelin song so good. The solo is so well balanced, emotional, and inspiring that it takes you on a journey. He has all the right fills perfectly put in it at all the right times. Very impressive.

[@photoscottsb]

Zeppelin meets the Allman Brothers!!! I approve!

[@Mrbumbons1]

Bass player is killin it

[@jodiejacobs1723]

This is SO GREAT! I've watched more times than I want to admit. Corson's solo is mesmerizing.

[@frankespinoza5758]

Great cover! Almost sounds like the Allman Brothers could've covered this.

[@richardbrucemusic]

I was just thinking the same thing! Could morph right into "Blue Sky". And I love how the bass player goes from a very Ramble On bassline to getting super busy right there with the lead guitar player.

[@rd400d]

yup Blue Sky, my favorite band of all time.

[@tedbogan6099]

You’re correct, Greg Allman and Duane Allman would’ve laid it out southern rock jazzy like they did!

[@jyotishkoray]

The basswork on this is brilliant. There is a shade of the motown sound perfectly mixed in. And a classic Betts-ian solo. Beautiful cover

[@tedbogan6099]

Nice southern rock version with a bob dylan like flavor to it! Nice work guys!

[@lc1717]

The passion, the intensity, one of the best covers I've seen. Great Job!

[@martin_ketchupvert]

Eric, my best Ramble on cover by far and I would say maybe better than the real one !!!!!

[@sto620]

Funkadelic Zep. Dig it!

[@tugwell4252]

So the 10 people that hit the dislike button are idiots, This is an outstanding cover and i really love how you made it your own , Bravo !

[@ericbmusic]

Much appreciated!

[@Jhossack11]

Wow - just friggin awesome!

[@julienrocher1]

Very different but very enjoyable! Very difficult piece of music to cover. Most try to emulate Led Zep which is close on impossible. This band make it their own in another way.

[@lenickramone]

What an amazing guitar solO!

[@Jackie-rc6cj]

Faultless cover, loved it , especially the vocals . Nailed it.

[@songsfromspringcreekave821]

Most excellent cover!!! Dude, that solo was magic! The build up was perfect. Nice job guys!

[@RightWordMedia]

I stumbled across this and now I'm sharing it with all musician friends. The solo is sublime, so fluid, and not a bum note or bend. Flawless. Really impressive. Definitely want to see this band live when they're back on the road.

[@ericbmusic]

thanks - the guitarist is richard corson. He's a wizard. You can find him p[laying around in southern maine. He doesn't tour. I will be playing a bunch of shows in July 2022 with him. Please visit www.eric-bettencourt.com for times/places.

[@miningwayne935]

@@ericbmusic How are you guys not famous....awesome cover....you sound a lot like Plant, and Richards guitar playing is insane!!!

[@tomneal1789]

Love the vocalist, he does the high notes plenty of justice!

[@gold7373]

Amazing performance everyone in the band!

[@ObscuredByCloud]

[@appazphotography]

Waaw, this is a super cover of that old great tune, I love it!

[@SanjooKusuriyacho]

In spite of longer one than its original, never been got tired, I feel. Excellent works !!!

[@lousamudio1802]

Nice job to all, but hats off to the great lead work on this one. Awesome!! Thanks for sharing! Lou 🙏🏼😊

[@rosalindduckworth7702]

That guitar made this song even more amazing nail it

[@sdean4816]

Great job guys ! I enjoyed it thoroughly.....

[@mrtunabeat7282]

Amazing job!

[@carlspencer7279]

Wow…

[@ThirdEyeBlindApologist]

Wow, I had no idea Ramble On worked so remarkably well as a jam band song.

[@poissonpuerile8897]

This is really quite an astounding arrangement and performance! The extended instrumental part in the middle is phenomenal. And the occasional Allman Brothers feel is just perfect. My only suggestion would be to crank up the electric guitar and add a good deal of fuzz on the chorus.

[@natoflores8723]

This is a great interpretation of the song.

[@ACoustaDC]

That Drummer is so underrated. This is a lesson in restraint. He is a drum god. Guitar solo was great too, like that he plays with his fingers and the "sultans of swing" nod in there was cool. But that drummer... wish all drummer understood what this guy knows.

[@henrykc3]

Super!

[@innocentbystander2673]

Tight as...really tasteful.

[@leonardmichaelwrinch446]

Sweet candy 👍🤟

[@saddhu007]

Great ! I've just watched all (?) the tracks of this concert and I REALLY ENJOYED EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM ! Eric, you perform very good music with your band; each of you makes his work exceptionally perfect! And the videos are also in a very good quality - recorded and edited ! (I never heard your music before today, found you by looking for videos of the amazing Amanda Gervasi and thank Amanda for this connection!) Keep on Rockin' & Bluesin' ! All the Best from Germany! (I copy this and paste into comments of the other great videos)

[@apeman4191]

awesome !!!

[@miguelnovoa6706]

Congrats!! amaizin guitar solo!

[@LazyZeus]

Have no idea how i ended up here, but it is efing awsome. I am pretty ok with original, but this solo. I mean... Just high five....

[@funguy4utube]

Excellent ! You made it your own nicely ! Bass and lead are so tight on the jam ... drummer w the modified Jason fab ... lead singer guitar player superb ( Plant just had to sing ) loved the intro especially and the back to vocals end. Really top drawer fellas !

[@charliepowell9307]

I love this cover for it’s feel. Sooo goood!!! I’ve watched it to many times to count. Great job! And that guitarist tho.

[@jeffroberts_tunes]

At first I was put off by the jam band beat approach but wow great vocals and tremendous playing by all four!

[@carlesmolins3269]

Killer cover! Great musicians!

[@missdancer318]

my god the groove

[@ericbmusic]

yes! the drummer is such a pocket player

[@adrianprophett470]

[@djkenez]

Sounds really awesome...

[@veritasgravitas8608]

Great job...great solo...Ramble on...

[@martinadejaquiz2482]

excellent cover - LZ-II .... masterpiece album. liked!

[@randalleasley31]

My name is randall and I'd like to randall on. This is the best rendition of an old classic. I suggest every one of you put this on. In the morning, you can s*** shower shave make bacon-and-eggs. Now hit it

[@TeslaDawg]

Love it!!

[@jeffhamula]

Just checked you guys out in Portland.... Great groove!

[@motopiwalenongtshethong1894]

Ramble on, the original song was introduced by Led zappline , remembering Maquengwe and private Metha used to play it during the BDF concerts in the 80's. a very good track indeed.

[@Sammybizness]

Rocked it out!

[@gunnydavis1251]

That was fuckin awesome wow!! The vocals were great but the dude on the electric guitar was in the zone he is a master of his craft,incredible rendition guys really nice Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat Semper Fidelis The Gunny

[@matthewnickerson8629]

Awesome Cover! I try to share this and your other songs to draw some attention to people making great music without compromising their integrity by selling out.

[@happilyeggs4627]

Really great adaptation of a classic son. Love the electric guitar highlights through the verses. It's almost like CSNY did a version, or maybe Crazy Horse, with a chunk of Hillage. Truly beautiful and fantastic in it's own right. Then to take it in a psychedelic direction for the solo, just genius. Page would be proud. Revision: this is what the Grateful Dead would have done.

[@jharloe]

Killer Band !

[@adrianprophett470]
