    I’ve just ordered the sheet music for this piece. I am an intermediate level classical guitarist who loves Led Zeppelin. This arrangement seems to me like an excellent piece for the intermediate level guitarist because it includes several techniques that need to be mastered at that level such as barre chords, arpeggios, rasguado type strumming etc... It’s so nice to be able to practice these techniques while playing one of the most iconic rock songs on a classical guitar and make it sound so genuine. Truly superb arrangement. The video showing the hand positions and strumming patterns is also extremely well done.

    When talent and expertise is at this level that anyone with an ear can appreciate you'd also have to appreciate the expert's interpretation. It's the artist's interpretation that is the enjoyment.
