Heartbreaker: Zeplin Tribute Host: |
"Heartbreaker is the best fix around for Led Zeppelin addicts. Singer Jefrey James has the Viking shriek down pat, and bassist Marcus Miller does a fine job keeping up with the Joneses, even switching to keyboard and mandolin for the mellower songs. A healthy dose of thespian pomp later, we’re left with genuine imitation Zep." - Goodtimes Santa Cruz April 200 |
