VIDEO: Train performs Led Zeppelin II classics on Jimmy Kimmel Live




Train performed a pair of tunes from their latest release, “Train Does Led Zeppelin II”, on ABC-TV’s Jimmy Kimmel Live on June 10.

The San Francisco band delivered “Heartbreaker” and “Living Loving Maid (She’s Just A Woman)” from Led Zeppelin’s legendary 1969 album, which they have re-recorded in its entirety for both fun and charity.

"Our favorite band is Led Zeppelin, and they made a huge impression on our lives musically," says singer Pat Monahan. "So I thought, why don't we record one of their albums, just for the fun of it for our fans. I’ve been singing Zeppelin songs in every band I’ve been in since I was a young kid, Train included.”

100% of the proceeds from “Train Does Led Zeppelin II” will be donated to Family House, a San Francisco-based nonprofit organization that provides temporary housing to families of ill children receiving treatment at the University of California San Francisco Benioff Children's Hospital.

The original “Led Zeppelin II” topped the US Billboard 200 on its way to sales of more than 12 million in the States alone.
