Carlos Santana Revamps Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love” And NAILS It
A Great Covering A Great
As an ode to the greatest guitarists of all time, Carlos Santana released his “Guitar Heaven: The Greatest Guitar Classics Of All Time” and of course Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love” appears on there.
“You need coolin’, baby, I’m not foolin’, I’m gonna send you back to schoolin”
With insane vocals coming from Chris Cornell, lead singer of Audioslave, the two vamp up the classic and really rock out to its iconic beat. Carlos slays all over Jimmy’s signature guitar work with killer solos and pristine technique and we could go as far as saying that even Robert would enjoy this sweet rendition.
Interesting Fact: Robert Plant did the vocals of “Whole Lotta Love” in one take.
Although this Led Zep favorite has been covered quite a bit, we have to say that Carlos’s skills on this really measure up to the big shoes that Jimmy left to fill while performing this song. We are quite impressed with Chris’s vocals as well considering he can notes with his voice that we would not even dream of trying!
All in all, this cover just slays! Check it out for yourself..

You need coolin’, baby, I’m not foolin’,
I’m gonna send you back to schoolin’,
Way down inside honey, you need it,
I’m gonna give you my love,
I’m gonna give you my love.

You’ve been learnin’, baby, I’ve been yearnin’,
All them good times, baby, baby, I’ve been yearnin’,
Way, way down inside honey, you need it,
I’m gonna give you my love… I’m gonna give you my love.
Wanna Whole Lotta Love

You’ve been coolin’, baby, I’ve been droolin’,
All the good times I’ve been misusin’,
Way, way down inside, I’m gonna give you my love,
I’m gonna give you every inch of my love,
Gonna give you my love.

Way down inside… woman… You need… love.
Shake for me, girl. I wanna be your backdoor man.
Keep it coolin’, baby.
