EVERYTHING YOU SEE WAS RECORDED LIVE ON CAMERA. Sometimes I mime along, but this time it's legit - I played everything live on camera in a single take for each part.

Here it is, Jimmy Page's iconic guitar solo in Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven performed on alto sax.

Led Zeppelin was the first band I was ever properly obsessed with. My best mate introduced me to them when I was 13 and I was immediately hooked. Collected all their albums. Listened to little else for much of my early teens (at least until someone told me about Pink Floyd, then I disappeared down another rabbit hole).

As such, this was all once again played entirely by ear from memory. No sheet music was used - even the drum fills were seared indelibly into my brain nearly three decades ago.

Let me know if you want a tutorial, happy to make one if there's enough demand.

I'd reeeeeeally like one of these new videos to get anywhere near as many hits as the throwaway Hotel California one I did a few years ago that you all really enjoyed for some reason... don't know what it was about that particular video but geez you lot are making me work hard to find the formula again. 4400 subscribers and each video I make barely gets 400 views in a month. AAAAAARRRRGH WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME.

Lemme know what you'd like for future videos. With no cruise ships sailing, everyone cancelling or postponing their wedding, no corporate events, no tours, no venues having live music etc etc I've got little else to do besides making these things...
