He IS!!! I have had the immense privilege of meeting Jimmy five times - beginning in 1988 on his solo tour for Outrider - and each time he's been humble, polite, sincere, sweet and instead of feeling like you're meeting one of the GODS of rock - he comes across as if you're meeting an old friend. He's a very genuine and wonderful guy!
That’s so nice to hear. I feel like everyone else that he’s a phenomenal guitarist. The best there ever was. He’s passionate about the music. It consumes him. The guitar becomes part of him when he’s playing. That’s one of the reasons he’s so great.
His smile when his was asked about the Zeppelin experience...was so absolutely sincere and beautiful. It's means far more than any of the words he used to describe it.
Just watched the concert (got it for Chrissie present) with the sound cranked right up. They all looked like they were so glad to be together. They performed with great enthusiasm - they certainly didn't look or sound like they were just going through the motions. Some of the camera shots of the young faces in the audience were just priceless. Keep it up Jimmy!!!
Never will be a genius such as Jimmy Page. I'm sorry I never got to see Zep live. I wish I would have caught his tour with The Black Crowes back in 2000. Never even heard about it when it was going till after the fact. Rock on James Patrick Page.
I have been very lucky to have spoken to Jimmy on a couple of occasions,and he really is a pleasant softly spoken gent.I think this all comes across in this interview.Keep rockin' Jimmy.
you can tell in this interview he was so excited to get back with zeppelin. i feel sorry for him that there wouldnt be any other shows after. the time to have done would have been then. i think its too late now :/
If it was ever going to happen it would've happened in 2008. Much too late now, unfortunately. Plant is the only one under 70. It's best to leave it where it is, sadly.
I love how Pagey doesn't answer some of the questions dead on, and spins his own version of an answer. Very clever and very "on message" as they say in politics. He's so charming and pleasant that you hardly notice. I wish there were at least 30 minutes more of this interview! I love this guy. Cannot wait for the O2 concert to be released on dvd!!!
If I met Jimmy Page, I would be so speechless! Afterwards, I will faint and get mad at myself for fainting because I would miss meeting him! Jimmy Page you are my FAVORITE guitarist! NOBODY can play like you! Yeah sure we have the worlds fastest guitarist, but you are better because your songs are so hard and are written with such soul and passion! We need more music like yours in this world!
Gosh, Madison Square Garden and Earls Court were both just awesome. Rock n Roll, The Ocean, Black Dog, Going to California, Celebration Day.....the perfect live performances by led zeppelin
Wow, he is such a well spoken and polite man. You would never believe someone with such presence on stage would be so quite and soft spoken. He is most certainly one of my favorite musicians of all time.
i wish i could see him in concert.. i really wanted :( he looks so nice, in all pictures and all the videos i've seen form led zep he always looks so handsome.. I love this man, he's a lovely person and i don't care the age, he still the same. Anyway, i'm glad to know that a person like this exist. No one can replace him, with his 65 years he is the best
KlewieLewie ..for his age group,,,he is good looking, ,,and yes sexy too.. He has a sparkle in his,eyes,,can still play a mean guitar,,,,sexy? Absolutely. ! Also he is intelligent,,gentlmanly,,well spoken,,,and always smiling. Who in his age group wouldn't think he is sexy.
I was born 1986, but I remember being actually inspired by Led Zep's sound when I first saw them in 2005 or so by a video that someone kept in my house. Strangely enough, but they are one of my recollections of my teenage life. It's quite cheering to know that they are still rockin' the world. A fine interview of the legend.
The greatest rock guitarist there has ever been, along with the greatest rock band there has ever been. I have always wanted to meet Jimmy page and absolute genius if ever there was one. Would love to have seen Zeppelin at their peak.
So impressed with this guy. I watched Robert Plant's tribute to him, and I realize they are gentlemen first, rock stars second: amazingly humble, considering all they have done for music and, well, the human spirit...
for me , this generation of musicians , Jimmy page , hendrix etc ) where the coolest musicians ever , and jimmy page is one of theyr musically leaders if i hear his sounds i get real crazy and i couldn`t live without this music led zeppelin for ever
a world tour would be stellar...they could charge any price they like & the fans would buy a ticket. 20 million fans wanted to go to this gig & something like 18 thousand tickets were sold. c'mon robert plant, sort it out with jimmy. there are millions of fans who want to see you
my thoughts exactly.He is still attractive but he was so beautiful in the 1970's that it breaks my heart to look at him. someone really does need to invent a time machine.
I was lucky and got to se Led Zeppelin in Albuquerque, New Mexico, (of all places), in May of 1971, This was very early in their touring career. But, even by then they already were a well seasoned band. (This was just after their 5th album, "Houses Of The Holy") That is the one thing that always impressed me about Jimmy Page. Their are few people that can not only play, and produce. He had his problems with the things that come with fame, but through it all, he always seems to be a gentleman.
Rock isn't about precision. We have music schools for that. It's about the experience...living it together, being transported to another experience shared only by the others present. It's one experience to hear a recording, another to share it with a friend, and another to share the experience in a small club, yet another in a larger venue, another in a huge arena. Same song. So precision can't be that important. It's the feel, the interplay of the band with each other, the audience..emotions...
this is really cool, because of after all my worshipping of the epic jimmy page, this is the first time ive ever heard him speak. hes always been a mute yet powerful embodiment to me but now i see hes got a great charismatic voice to match his charismatic guitar skills
All I can say is the way Jimmy talks it always grabs my attention!! So eloquently spoken.
Nothing is nor will ever be better than Jimmy and mighty Led Zeppelin
A soft spoken man yet a dynamo with a guitar.
He IS!!! I have had the immense privilege of meeting Jimmy five times - beginning in 1988 on his solo tour for Outrider - and each time he's been humble, polite, sincere, sweet and instead of feeling like you're meeting one of the GODS of rock - he comes across as if you're meeting an old friend. He's a very genuine and wonderful guy!
Omg like really?? I would be completely overwhelmed, speechless a d nervous as hell to meet my guitar hero! You are solo lucky!
That’s so nice to hear. I feel like everyone else that he’s a phenomenal guitarist. The best there ever was. He’s passionate about the music. It consumes him. The guitar becomes part of him when he’s playing. That’s one of the reasons he’s so great.
His voice. . . HIS VOICE ♥
His smile when his was asked about the Zeppelin experience...was so absolutely sincere and beautiful. It's means far more than any of the words he used to describe it.
Best guitarist to ever live, and will always be the true god of rock......live on Mr Page.....no one will ever be better.
You don’t know a lot of music if you say something like that.
@@dortega12let me guess, Hendrix or Clapton
Allan Holdswoth Lenny Breau

Lovely Jimmy ♥♥
the greatest of all...his music is stratospheric
Such an amazing man .........x
Jimmy looked so great here in his black dress shirt and hair down.
Never will be a genius such as Jimmy Page. I'm sorry I never got to see Zep live. I wish I would have caught his tour with The Black Crowes back in 2000. Never even heard about it when it was going till after the fact. Rock on James Patrick Page.
met jimmy this weekend at the rock hall inductions, what a gentle, sweet man he is. a total doll
NO ONE WILL EVER BE AS COOL AS JIMMY PAGE! ......EVER!
It's funny how every time she mentions Robert Plant not wanting to get together, he steers the question in a different direction. Nice save
Jimmy has the best smile in the world
أكيد
It's nice to see this with a retrospective attitude, knowing that the attitude he was showing was going to culminate in smashing success on stage.
SO SO COOL! AND SO SO GOOD LOOKING!!
He really seems like a lovely guy.
Can't believe he's almost 70! He looks great, though. And he can still play like no one else
Paige is a very charming man!
It is not the first time Jimmy Page has broke a finger before a gig. This man's work saves my life .
I have been very lucky to have spoken to Jimmy on a couple of occasions,and he really is a pleasant softly spoken gent.I think this all comes across in this interview.Keep rockin' Jimmy.
His magical ideas set intlo music were and are just so extraordinary and so enchanting Just the very best!!!
In the interviews page has always been a gentleman...
Such a charming man. That smile could melt a glacier and so can all those guitar riffs.
he is such a happy person!
He is lovely, and his art is timelessly wonderful.
you can tell in this interview he was so excited to get back with zeppelin.
i feel sorry for him that there wouldnt be any other shows after.
the time to have done would have been then. i think its too late now :/
If it was ever going to happen it would've happened in 2008. Much too late now, unfortunately. Plant is the only one under 70. It's best to leave it where it is, sadly.
musical genius and a legendary guitarist who put his soul into music...the greatest of all
This Man is Pure Class :)
I love how Pagey doesn't answer some of the questions dead on, and spins his own version of an answer. Very clever and very "on message" as they say in politics. He's so charming and pleasant that you hardly notice. I wish there were at least 30 minutes more of this interview! I love this guy. Cannot wait for the O2 concert to be released on dvd!!!
To put it simply; I love this man
If I met Jimmy Page, I would be so speechless! Afterwards, I will faint and get mad at myself for fainting because I would miss meeting him! Jimmy Page you are my FAVORITE guitarist! NOBODY can play like you! Yeah sure we have the worlds fastest guitarist, but you are better because your songs are so hard and are written with such soul and passion! We need more music like yours in this world!

This guy is fucking awesome. I would love to meet him, and just shake those hands. A living legend.

Gosh, Madison Square Garden and Earls Court were both just awesome. Rock n Roll, The Ocean, Black Dog, Going to California, Celebration Day.....the perfect live performances by led zeppelin
his personality is so amazing it just makes you fall in love with him.

Wow, he is such a well spoken and polite man. You would never believe someone with such presence on stage would be so quite and soft spoken. He is most certainly one of my favorite musicians of all time.

KlewieLewie ..for his age group,,,he is good looking, ,,and yes sexy too.. He has a sparkle in his,eyes,,can still play a mean guitar,,,,sexy? Absolutely. ! Also he is intelligent,,gentlmanly,,well spoken,,,and always smiling. Who in his age group wouldn't think he is sexy.

That's you're fabulous lespaul that inspired all of us today and yesterday. This is why we have all these bands today
I simply love his guitars, standing in the background the whole interview
for me , this generation of musicians , Jimmy page , hendrix etc ) where the coolest musicians ever , and jimmy page is one of theyr musically leaders
if i hear his sounds i get real crazy and i couldn`t live without this music
led zeppelin for ever
The true Boss
Thanx Jimmy for your art, I saw you playing in 1992 and you made me cry.
Health, love and peace.
Ah, how I love him! I could listen to him for hours : )
He is just a brilliant beautiful man!!
Its sad what music has become. what a true visionary. led zeppelin music was ahead of its time.
a world tour would be stellar...they could charge any price they like & the fans would buy a ticket. 20 million fans wanted to go to this gig & something like 18 thousand tickets were sold. c'mon robert plant, sort it out with jimmy. there are millions of fans who want to see you
My Love
my thoughts exactly.He is still attractive but he was so beautiful in the 1970's that it breaks my heart to look at him. someone really does need to invent a time machine.
He's a gentleman. Very polite.
Bless
Led Zeppelin, truly the greatest rock band ever, of all time.
Love you and your guitar, Mr. Page.
great to see this.
thanks LZJoker. :)
**SIGH** I am 51 years old, and I am waiting, and will continue to wait for a Led Zeppelin tour.
thanks for confirming my suspicion mate. cheers
for 10 min. 24 seconds, all i saw was the '59 sunburst in the background...thank you jimmy, for everything!!!
@ElektraAsylum he still has that young adorable voice! This legend will never get old :)

It doesn't matter who was better, they are both great's in their own respect.
Thank you for clarifying. Regards
Acere58
i'm glad to see their performance
he seems like a really cool guy
You are absolutely correct
If I could meet anybody in the world I would pick him :) It's lovely to know that such a cool, iconic, rock star is also a total sweet heart :D
simply wonderful to see and hear a living legend
and what an opportunity at that.
Led Zeppelin forever.
In my world.
JIMMY PAGE IS THE BEST...HE IS MY HERO OF ALL TIME...MAY LONG LIVE SIR....FROM BANGLADESH.....
I can'y believe this was in 2007, it seems just like yesterday that I wanted those tickets more than anything in the world.
LOVE THIS MAN!! SUCH A TALENT!!!
Great interview.
exactly this! now where have i heard that before...
Such a darling man...age has only made him better.
Hope you had a wonderful birthday Jimmy, wishing you bright blessings.
i REALLEY hope they do just 1 more reunion, just 1 in my lifetime. in 2007/8 i was 10. and didnt know about led zeppelin. pleas led, just 1 more
64 years old... and he's still got it.
Never have I been so interested to hear man talk about his pinky.
He had a bong on his hand and didn't want to break it.
Rock isn't about precision. We have music schools for that. It's about the experience...living it together, being transported to another experience shared only by the others present.

"i have my mind totaly blank...the beast of my performance will come out" totally agree
what aa gorgeous human being..
He seems like such a nice guy. I could easily imagine him being about to talk muggers out of mugging him with his niceness.
watching this video, it's hard to believe that he was a hard drinking hard partying rocker age really mellows
Same Here wow, he still rocks hard in my books
this is really cool, because of after all my worshipping of the epic jimmy page, this is the first time ive ever heard him speak. hes always been a mute yet powerful embodiment to me but now i see hes got a great charismatic voice to match his charismatic guitar skills
the greatest of all...so creative
he's incredibly hot at this age! why is he so hot? gosh he's so hot!
BECAUSE HE'S JIMMY PAGE THAT'S WHY HE'S HOT
Because he is a Capricorn and we're sexy u til were dead! Lol
that broken finger has done more than most people have done with their entire lives
