I was surprised this wasn't a Tenacious D video lol
That's first thing that came to my mind as well.

For context, there was a great performance of Heart doing Battle of Evermore in 1995. Your can watch it on YouTube.
The pick of Heart to perform a tribute for Led Zeppelin was made, it seems, for good reason.
Must have listened to it a dozen times, but I think if you can play a tribute song that makes the original band give you a standing ovation and even bring one of them to tears, you've nailed it.

out of the URL please. It started autoplaying another video when it was done.I was waiting for Sultans of Swing 😔

The correct answer is Rush 2112.
As a Canadian, I have no option but to concur.
I remember catching Heart when they were touring with the Led Zeppelin experience. They performed songs from both the Heart and Led Zeppelin catalogue and it was one of those things I never expected to experience in my lifetime.
btw Rick Beato posted a What Makes this Song Great video about Stairway to Heaven today.
