..The Best tribute to Led Zeppelin" BBC Newsnight

"If you want to get the 'Led out' and Page and Plant are otherwise engaged, then the only real option you've got is; Letz Zep! Billy Plant and the boyz will take you through a roller coaster ride of all the classics like you have never heard them before and are unlikely to ever hear again, if Bob and Jim don't start talking to each other soon, but that's another story. If you can't get the real brew, then this is the closest to the real thing that you are ever likely to see and hear, the playing is impeccable and the Band rocks just like the real thing. Brilliant!"
