Stefanos Alexiou – The Rain Song

Here in San Diego we rarely see rain throughout the year so when we got some much needed rain during the past few days, it inspired me to mellow down and cover Led Zeppelin’s “The Rain Song”. Initially I thought to even add some cello in it but I wasn’t happy with the way it blended so I ended up playing just the guitar with added drums.

The making of The Rain Song

As I always do, I started by playing the guitar on it…

… Then I added some drums.

The Rain Song: Mix & video on YouTube

Finally both guitar and drums tacks were mixed, added some reverb on the snare drum and guitar and uploaded on YouTube early Sunday morning!

Hope you enjoy my version of The Rain Song…
