TF Their are a few arrangements on you tube that take your approach for the same reasons and they do work like yours will, but there are so many cool things going on with Jimmy Pages guitar licks and the timing stops and starts I just cannot see not playing it as it was done but congrats on coming up with a workaround, call me crazy it is so much easier to take a simple approach but this is Zeppelin and I like the challenge

Sounds like some good times ahead, Russell.
I've got a simplified arrangement of Kashmir that I came up with in regular tuning, for playing it on an acoustic guitar. It's played in A, and the main riff involves playing an A on the G-string along with the D-string, and then striking the open A string as the lower "drone" note throughout. You can then just proceed up the G-string in time, moving along to Bb, B, C, to D, then back down to A and repeat. It's real simple, and work quite well. The chord progression after this riff can then be played as open chords in this order: D > A, C > G, A, A, G, G, F, F, F-C-D.
I had to come up with this, simply because I haven't got Robert Plant's high vocal register. I know it's not how Led Zeppelin plays it, but it's a workable and recognizable arrangement. Try it out, and let me know what you think.
I was going to watch the GB game but it was cancelled due to the paint melting on the field and was concidered hazardious but they play the Browns in a few weeks yep it is a good song!

It has been sometime since I have played regular with any group but two of my old friends who were in another band contacted me to get together and jam once or twice a week and things are going smooth, I have posted some a few links to some early videos on chordie and face book on my You Tube channel and the potential is there so I decided to introduce a challenge for the band, I chose Led Zeppelins "Kashmir" a lot going on in this song I worked out the guitar parts over a few weeks till I was confident to play along with the recording. I wont have the freedom to sing this so the bass player is doing it I kind of feel a little sorry for the drummer, John Bonham is a tough musician to try and copy but next Tuesday we will get down to the nitty gritty of the song keep ya all posted.
Happy Birthday Phill!! another journey around the sun something to celebrate have a great day!
Thank you and ps so would I

Thanks dino! nice to hear it

This morning the drummer picked me up at 9:30 am for our rehearsal and right around 9:50 am we started playing, this is the first song sort of a warm up and over the next 3 hours we ran through some original and copy songs as usual we have a good time. Next week we are setting up the green screen and back lighting along with micking all the drums and amps and I will bring my 24 track Tascam and we can start recording our 1st CD, all the songs will be mixed with my new Izotope Advanced mastering program and added to the edited videos to produce a better sound track for the video. It consumes a lot of time but it is a labor of love (good name for the band) If you have a few minutes give a look https://youtu.be/1aejQHxKTnM
I used to like me but lately things have changed my hair is gray I make unusual sounds I don't recognize so I think I will leave me for something better. 
I have there product "Lizard spit" it cost around $14.00 a bottle and I only use it on my Les Paul excellent stuff!

It is also available from other places like Guitar Center and some local guitar stores and music stores. The luthier who made a couple of my guitars suggested it to me and it is very good.

How did we miss this one you rocked it Russell!
I don't know dino, we record every session and I edit the videos and try and select the best "Furrball" was very progressive music the C9 organ effect really boots it into high gear and lets me experiment glad ya had a listen
sniff sniff I think someone is cooking spam
Thanks ark, those oldies are a lot of fun to play they stand the test of time
arkady wrote:Great stuff Russ.
I enjoyed that..
Thank you dino, it is also one of mine! songs like this were a lot of fun to play back in the 60's and still fun
dino48 wrote:I loved it Russell one of my favorite oldies.
Bill your comments are always appreciated I was playing clubs in the 60's when songs like these first played on the radio and naturally all the club bands added them to there song lists the "style" is a tight rhythm section which is the backbone of any group rock jazz or whatever I will leave a comment on you tube when I can thanks again for the nice words
Strummerboy Bill wrote:I left comments for you on the Tube, my friend, but just to let you know, you brought a smile to my face when I heard this one. Not only because I used to play it back in the 60's, but because you captured the "style".
Thanks!
Bill
Joe the songs from the 50's, and 60's were not as complicated and fun to play which makes them easier to try ideas out thanks for taking a look and your comments

Hi Jan thank you, yes it is a five string bass he is playing personally I prefer 4 string but adding a lower tone string opens the way for more creative possibilities and making mistakes Remembering arrangements and lyrics comes natural after playing professionally for over 50 years in club bands some folks cannot and occasionally I use a chart for a new song I am doing till I commit it to memory thanks for giving a look and commenting
Jandle wrote:Russell.... that was really good and wow awesome, that would be so much fun to do that each week with a bunch of mates and jam together. It sounded great
Now i am going to show my ignorance again .................
1st question, the bass player, his base guitar looked like it had a 5th string?
2nd question, how on earth do you all manage to play and sing and remember all the chords, lyrics without reading them? that must take lots of practice to remember so many songs.
I get together with a couple friends mostly once a week and we just have a blast playing some old and new songs with some originals thrown in this is a song from the mid 60's by Rufus Thomas "Walking the Dog" we are adding a large green screen backdrop so I can spice up the videos with some motion backgrounds and such. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJWjivu … e=youtu.be
I hear you, and I watched a video of a guy using this product on a guitar and seeing is believing all he needed was a cloth and the product to restore his ax I think this will work for you
KevinRK wrote:Thanks for this post, Russ. I just bought my Studio T back in March and it's got a tiny little, almost undetectable, scratch by the toggle switch. Must have done it dinking it with my pick (last time I'll be so careless!). That the product you mentioned might come close to removing it, well, you probably can hear the exhale of relief clear up in that black hole in deep space! LOL!!
I think I have alien sweat (no kidding) it seems it works into the finish or the chrome where I rest the palm of my hand when I pick I was mortified when it worked into the top finish of my Les Paul and bridge so I went searching for a solution and found a product called "players Kit Instrument Polish" it is available at several online links so there is no need to post a link and you can watch several videos online how to use it. The price is around $24.00 with shipping there are two bottles of it and depending on the severity of the scratches you can remove most or all, I did pickup some Lizard Spit for keeping it nice also a bit expensive at $14.00 a bottle but hey it's a Les Paul gotta treat the lady right.
Thanks Roger so am I (pant pant)

Thanks dino regarding the price I opted for the three payments only because I have a sweetwater account and I would have to pay a 26% intrest charge, so this way there is no interest and I allready made the 1st payment 2 to go of $66.00 not hard to handle
dino48 wrote:Good looking and a good price Russell.
I recently restored a older squire 51 and thought I made a deal to keep it but it went sour and I had to return the guitar but I kinda fell in love with the sound it adds a new dimension to my playing so I purchased a new one from Sweetwater for $199.00 candy apple red. cant wait till Friday.
JJJ have a fantastic day Happy Birthday and congratulations on another orbit of the sun
Happy Birthday Dino have a great day!!
