[edit] Notable Performances
Live at Merlefest is the first album that features Sarah Dugas singing lead vocals. Tracks seven and eight are really two parts of a single set combining Les Blues du Cadien with Whole Lotta Love. This is particularly obvious when Sarah cuts back to Les Blues du Cadien right in the middle of Whole Lotta Love (at roughly the point where the free-form section would have appeared in the original Led Zeppelin recording of Whole Lotta Love).
Les Blues du Cadien/Whole Lotta Love features Casey Driessen on fiddle and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin on mandolin.
