But why? What makes him so different, so special? What does he have that others don’t? Let’s see the answer to that question.

      I can't tell you how many times I've seen the song remains the same in fact I watched it last night and had to rewatch a couple songs over and over and over again, No Quarter being one of them another being Jimmy's solo on dazed and confused, and since I've been living you. Honestly I can watch it and listen to the album of the movie as I've already done countless times and I'm still in awe!

      Yeah, it's too bad Kevin Shirley took an axe to a lot of great music. Jimmy usually keeps an eagle eye on things, but from what I've read, he was distracted during work on TSRTS reissue. Shirley sabotaged No Quarter, Celebration Day, Since I've Been Lovin' You...anyway, the original issue is better by far.

      He plays what he’s feeling, besides the basic structure, if he played the same every time he’d be boring like many others. If that’s sloppy, I’ll take his sloppy over technical every time.

    In the early days, Page definitely had a leg-up on most other guitarists because of his session work, which started in the early 60’s. This was before the Beatles hit it big, or The Stones, The Yardbirds, The Who, Hendrix, Pink Floyd etc.
    From those early days he understood recording and producing, and was able to take full control of Zeppelins sound from day 1. He knew how to get the most out of the studio, along with his and his bandmates talents. Now, was he the most technically fast or fluid player? Hell no, but he wrote sooo many classic riffs/songs, while produced all their albums, and influencing countless other guitarists. That being said, Zeppelin’s greatness came from all of them being so incredibly talented. But it was all Page’s brainchild. Therefore, his face should be on the ‘Mount Rushmore’ of
    All Time Guitarist, for the entirety of his contributions to Rock N Roll.
    IMHO 🙏🏻✌️

      Exactly! He done more for music, well at least Led Zeppelin’s music, then I believe any other band musician. From his amazing playing * creating great songs * putting together the greatest musicians * to getting complete control over their music * to producing mix & editing * to remastering & gathering all their music, & being the keeper & protector of it all. Who else has done all of those things?

      He probably said that, because it’s nobody’s business, it doesn’t mean he worships Satan. He could be an Atheist like me, who doesn’t believe in either. Just because someone reads about something, doesn’t mean they follow it. Hell I read the Bible, I don’t believe a word of it, I read it to see all the rubbish in it.

    Oh yes, the evil wizard.
    Funny how gullible some people are and let their imaginations run wild.
    Like many younger people in that period mystic realms and wizard and witch, astrology, all of that stuff was popular. At least here in the states.
    But, Jimmy probably got a kick out people being afraid of him, like David Bowie. Page was at Bowies place - i think a party - and Bowie was terrified that Page was going to or already put a spell on him while they were talking about the occult. Bowie accused Page and Page just sat there and smiled, saying nothing. Bowie told Page to leave and by the window. Page just smiled. Finally Bowie ordered him to leave period. Bowie had his place exorcised.
    Then there were the stories about the main record office in NY and how people ran to hide when Jimmy came to visit.
    Unreal.

    Thelemics or pagan's do not believe in Satan so that's bull. He only sounded sloppy because he had the balls to improvise unlike others.
    Clapton was boring, Townshend wasn't as good and both were jealous. Van Halen was also jealous and if you play note for note from the album what's the point of playing live.
