So many of the rock groups of the sixties and seventies are known for their electric music. At the time and even still I liked the Led Zeppelin 3 album, complete with cover that rotated. I’ve decided to post their recording of ‘Bron-Yr-Aur-Stomp’. The acoustic guitar playing of Jimmy Page was definitely influenced by the music of Davy Graham. There are parts of the song where I’m thinking Bluegrass, in fact I think that one of the music quotes is from Turkey in the Straw. This recording /youTube is from 1975. Back then it was much harder to use acoustic guitars in a live situation. i love the reintroduction of the rhythm part at about 4.40

Enjoy the youTube video of the acoustic guitar song “Bron-Yr-Aur-Stomp’
