Youtube

Hotel California

With close to 7 million video views on Youtube, Jimmy Gelhaar has made his presence known by creating an international following of very devoted fans.

In early 2008, Jimmy found Bastiaan Zijlstra on Youtube. Bastiaan is a talented guitarist from the Netherlands and Jimmy invited him to participate in remaking the classic Eagles anthem, Hotel California. With only the Internet and their personal computers at their disposal, they spent a month sending files back and forth and released the video on March 15th, 2008. Within just a few short months, the video was seen by over a million viewers. However, after 2 years on Youtube and over 5 million views, we removed the video in accordance with an agreement with Cass County Music. Every day we receive requests for the video and someday, we hope to be able to bring it back.

Stairway To Heaven

After we completed work on Hotel California, we went to work on Stairway To Heaven. Based on the amazing viewer feedback and letters we have been sent, this version of Stairway To Heaven has been even better received than our version of Hotel California.
