I’m on a crazy road trip all week so for those of you that saw this early and wondering what the hell is going on, I’m probably 100 miles from the nearest Wifi as you read this. Hopefully, if all goes well, I will be back soon. This is Makana’s rendition of the Zep classic. Makana is one of the most talented young slack key guitarists I have ever seen. Enjoy!

That’s a very cool cover of the Zep original. I will forgo posting the low hanging fruit and will instead, once again, tip my hat to Farscythe for yet another band I’ve been turned onto: DeWolff – California Burning. They put an old quote from Ray Kroc in the lyrics. See if you can spot it.
#1 Dead Kennedys – California Uber Alles
#2 Dead Kennedys – We’ve Got A Bigger Problem Now
#3 The Alexander Haig reference reminds me of this
I never saw that, lol.
#4 Ramones – California Sun
Bold move covering a Zep tune, but he does it beautifully. Have a safe trip.
Rufus Wainwright – California
Just got back, 500 miles today made for a long drive!
California Dreaming
Roy Orbison – California Blue
isn’t that a joshua tree in the picture?
and the video
Yes, not my pic. We didn’t get to Joshua Tree, more Nor Cal, Nevada, Oregon stuff.
California Here I Come
Shocking Blue
They do the fingers like Redd Foxx
The Raveonettes — “Z-Boys”
This CD was in my car for a couple of years, and it probably would still be if I’d replaced that car with another one that actually had a CD player. The coda here is my idea of what heaven or the hereafter or what-have-you must sound like, too.
(Also, note the warning at the beginning of the video, should it apply to you.)
I appreciate nobody posting Californication, my least favorite RHCP song but was hoping for this one from at least one of you, you know who you are!
…I guess I might have come up with that one if I’d managed to skip past both of these?
