STP's cover of "Dancing Days" is one of the only true bright spots on this album. And I'm a huge, HUGE Zeppelin fan, so you can take that to the bank. STP is a good band. Those who disagrees are entitled to their opinions, however wrong they are. I suppose it's an emotional thing; some people just can't bring themselves to admit that STP is good.

why is everyone hatin? i don't think the STP dancin days cover is all that bad. they didn't try to change the vocals or the sound really. usually bands try to make cover songs their own and they fail horribly. you want to hear bad... look up the Tonight, Tonight cover by Panic at the Disco.... ugh.. makes me want to barf.

this kind of output further cements stp as one of the biggest successes of money grubbing hacks. it lacks talent, sincerity and most of all any semblance of interpretati o n aside from just making similar-soun d i n g tracks, and yes mr wolf is not alone, "down by the seaside" is reprehensibl e , bad music, besides being a slap in the face to led zepplin.

Hmm...this album has a twelveth track not listed by Pandora: "Down by the Seaside" by Robert Plant and Tori Amos. This might be an oversight by Pandora, but on the other hand, it's probably better to not acknowledge that song's existence.

Of course they pale in comparison to Zep, but I like this collection of covers. STP did a good job.

Haven't heard the rest of the album, but Dancing Days is a pretty good cover. It's tastefully done.

God most of these covers suck. The only halfway decent ones are Dancing Days and Four Sticks, but they absolutely pale in comparison to the originals.
