anyone suggest songs with a similar vibe to "stairway to heaven?" 

i never listened to classic rock when i was a child, as a young adult ive slowly gotten into it, little by little

we have a local classic rock station that i tuned into while driving the company truck while doing part runs. they play a wide variety of classic rock from the 60s to the early 90s

It's hard to find something that has the same vibe as such an iconic song (that's why they become classics), but maybe if you can tell me what it is that you like about it (doesn't have to be specific structural elements, thought it helps; it can just be "I like the X-like vibe of this bit or that" and whatnot) maybe we can get something close to it.

Personally when I think of that song I think of two things: A successful mix of the pastoral and hard blues, and the quiet-to-loud-to-climax structure. So, for now, I'll post some stuff that reminds me of those two things. You said you're slowly getting into classic* rock so forgive me if some examples seem obvious, but I have to work under the assumption that you know next to nothing.

This is all I can come up with off the top of my head and I feel I'm trailing off. Again, nothing's going to be *quite* like Stairway To Heaven, otherwise it'd just be a ripoff, and who wants that, but we can get close.

Kashmir is the closest thing I can come up with before coffee

It occurred to me that maybe some early prog ('67-'74) might also hit the spot (there might be some psychedelia thrown in, because, you know, the late '60s)

If I were to pit StH against another Led Zep song it'd definitely be Achilles' Last Stand. I actually think that's their best individual song.
