Jimmy Page- No one even comes close! Everyone else bores me! Only Page holds my interest. His Spontaneous Combustion way of playing is unmatched and unduplicated. Its unbelievable and incredible!!!
👍
Page And Squire For Me 😜🎸
BRAVO!!!!!
Your right and Fil said what I always knew , that the reason people and most never played a guitar before .say sloppy is they don’t understand what he’s doing . Most guitarist play the same way night after night it gets boring, Jimmy’s mistakes are better than being bored . Not to mention his creativity in the studio . There are better guitarist with speed and technique. But for feel and and diversify in styles Jimmy’s #1 in my book .
Well, there's all of those jealous haters who dream about being so great, and then there is Grand Master Jimmy Page. Enough said!😷
This version of Dazed and Confused probably contains a couple dozen riffs or pieces, and he just goes on and on. His creative genius is off the charts. He's always been my favorite, not simply for his playing, but his writing, producing, and general over all artistic / creative skills. There really is no other like him. To me he's the 8th wonder of the world.
🙌🙌
Right on. I think it was maybe Danny Goldberg who said Jimmy is/was a Quadruple threat: As a Guitarist, as a Composer, as a Producer, and as a Stage Presence/Performer. Rock and Roll indeed!
fun fact at 2:28 you can hear his tone change and that’s because the camera man stepped on his wah pedal and turned it on!! he has to walk over and push him out of the way to turn it off (without missing a beat, I might add)
One of the things that makes Page different is that he’s totally fearless. He goes places that aren’t ‘musically correct’, sometimes paints himself into a corner and gets into trouble but finds his way out. And in the process, he took you places that other guitarists wouldn’t have dared go to. Fearless!
Jimmy was at his BEST live, you never knew what he would do because HE did t know what he would do, it’s amazing that the other three were able to keep up, master craftsmen
I always like to say that each Zeppelin band member probably felt privileged to be in a band that was worthy of them! Four incredibles, all equal.
Jimmy was on fire In 73!! Incredible.
Amen!
Personally as a Zep Head... I'd give it a 3/10 from his whole career. Does that make him seem good? Kinda, but his worst was 1980 to 1984. His top playing was definitively 1971 where it was the best of Pre-1972 showman style and early proto-metal; the the best show in 1973 for fans was mainly Offenburg, Germany. Although some people think the recording's quality is subpar.
To FIL,
I think ya shoulda played the rest of the solo!
Now i've gotta scroll down, find the link to the video, click on the link & wait for the vide....no, the moments gone now....my gooves gone.
Well i hope you're happy.
Haha 🤣😂🤣😂 lolz
Thumbs up 👍 coming your way!
I beg to differ again his live playing slipped some in Those years but his recorded stuff was awesome I saw him with the firm 84-86 and he was great live. You can’t pidgin hole him. Again he plays off the cuff and sometimes he misses but never boring and he doesn’t have to prove himself.68-75 were pretty great 77-80 they shifted gears
For years I would turn on my surround sound and light up my Marshall and Les Paul an sit on the carpet against the couch and rip this whole concert on guitar. Jimmy is amazing in celebration day, rain song, the middle of dazed and confused. When he is on, no none, no one could have touched him. No one.
Darrin Ros When Jimi Hendrix was on he was untouchable.
No Quarter always have something special too, the jam's are amazing every time
Yeah he just has a sound that is very distinguishable.
Same with Iommi /Blackmore /Hendrix / Most of those old 70's blues rockers had a very unique sound and they did not use much distortion / that is a very hard to play guitar sound /It always sounds a little gritty
Jimmy is the man !!!!
He was a very popular and sought after sessions guitarist for years. So. he can play technical and proper when he wants. He just took from all those experiences and made his own sound. He had fun, you can tell by watching him!
👍☺
this is a 30 minute dazed and confused, the whole thing is jimmy on another planet!!!
Like NO ONE ELSE!!! PAGE WAS THE PUREST RAW TALENT ON GUITAR. ECLIPSED HENDRIX AND ZAPPA COMBINED
I Agree, completly lost.
I don’t need to know anything after I heard his solo on No Quarter live. That is
from another world.
As sloppy as Page may have been at times, it simply worked perfectly. Live Zeppelin was all about the feeling and vibe. Page was and still is one of the absolute greatest writers for the guitar from an orchestral approach. Page was the connection between Les Paul and many other players when it came to having what seemed like a thousand guitars playing at once.
Yeah, I wish I played guitar as sloppy as Jimmy Page! A musical genius of our time, period.
Amen!
I've got a lot of boots of Zeppelin and what has always impressed me is Pagey playing it different each night. Yes, he often sounds sloppy, but I (happily) attribute this to stretching himself to try new things and keep it fresh. I would much prefer this to somebody that plays the same thing perfectly night after night, but never stretches to reach for something new.
kipknee -Agreed!
He's humble too, great guitarist.
Very humble. He's always talking nicely about other guitarists.
Everybody has an opinion but any one who says sloppy is just not a person who knows music or just is not into zep which is fine but Page has said himself that he is not a technical player he goes for a sound a feel he is always pushing the boundaries and when you do that you crash once in a while like evil Kenevil but when he’s on he is amazing I love the emotion in his playing soft hard choppy smooth bottom line it moves me period!!!!!!!!
I think you could say his playing wasn't always precise... but he's more like a jazz player where it's more about the overall vibe and arc to the solo/improvisation than the specific individual notes. He's telling a story and it goes to a whole number of different places and the band all goes exploring that together. There's not a lot of bands playing in that style who could really do those long ranging jams like that...the Allman Brothers, the Grateful Dead, some of those bands did it that way too.
I'm so glad you played this particular clip, because when people wanna bag on Page & say he's sloppy,
I always want to play them this specific live solo- it's incredibly clean AND fast- not to mention,improvised! but Page,like other true greats was much more than just a great guitar player- he was a visionary, a producer,
a songwriter,
arranger, recording artist, performer- each member of that band was incredible- & the chemistry they had is unmatched to this day! I heard Over The Hills And FarAway on the AM radio back around '74, it really caught my ear & my fancy- I knew I wanted to do that- now 50 years later, I can say I fulfilled the desire to learn how to play guitar on a professional level ,make music & perform & record- but there is still an intangible element to it all, & that's where the magic occurs-
I had read in an article some years ago that Kirk Hammett said that this version of Dazed and Confused was an encyclopedia of guitar knowledge! It certainly is a great everytime I listen to it
Yeah if you break it down there's some cool stuff in there!
@@wingsofpegasus do you know what scales he's going off of? The shredding part of the solo of course.
Wings of Pegasus 😎 Incredible
Cole Wissert That’s not shredding, it’s Jimmy Page’
@@Braglemaster123 what?
Jimmy may have been a little sloppy, in today's standards, but you heard the notes and you knew what he was playing. And he is a genius acoustic composer. I just learned The Rain Song and what he does with alternate tuning is amazing. Love Jimmy!
Amen to that, he could certainly write!
Thats a common misconception, he wasnt sloppy at all, he just played like that on purpose. He used one of the most famous session players and u have to be extremely tight to be a good session player
Jimmy worked on that song for a long time, the Rain Song is just beautiful!
I have to agree that Zeppelin was an incredible improv band. Thats what makes great live music special. They could go off the rails, but Jimmy could usually cue Bonzo to reel it back in. When they were spot on it was magic. They took a lot of risks but it usually paid off. They were that good at it. Sloppy? Sometimes, but the slop usually led to something amazing. You build ideas that way. Zeppelin on a bad day in 1980 is better than most anything out there today. 73 & 75 were incredible.
👍
Add 1970 on that and you have a trifecta....pure brilliance, monumental tours.
Sloppy or not, Jimmy Page has more interesting ideas in a few minutes of improv then most of his guitar playing critics manage in a lifetime.
Amen!
BRAVO AND DITTO!!! NO ONE LIT UP A GUITAR AS HE DID. CLAPTON LOOKS LIKE HES STANDING STILL NEXT TO PAGES RAW LIGHTENING STRIKE RIFFS . PAGE COULD AMAZE US LIKE HENDRIX MASTER OF THE VIRTUOSO !!! PAGE WAS A GENIUS IN THE MOLD OF FRANK ZAPPA COULD PLAY LIKE ZAPPA HENDRIX COMBINED. I USED TO THINK ZAPPA WAS THE ULTIMATE GUITAR GRANDMASTER. BUT IVE BEEN LISTENING TO LED ZEPPELIN FOR A LONG WHILE LATELY AND THERE'S NO ONE ONE AS TALENTED ON GUITAR THAN PAGE. HE AMAZES YOU EVERY TIME YOU HEAR HIM
Jimmy was the the greatest guitarist of the 70's for me, hands down.
BRAVO
Page was great but no Hendrix just listen to axis bold as love and the complex layered guitar work and originality still unequalled
Jimmy was my first guitar hero. He always played like a train just about to run off the tracks.
not sure what was in that orange juice back stage but jimmy was on fire in this concert.. every song.. epic.
Those guys just clicked so well together! They said the first time they got together, the room just exploded with incredible sound. Would have been awesome to be there!☺
Yeah they were all inside each other's heads!
wingsofpegasus that's really difficult to get a group of guys all together on the same page. Doesn't happen very often! I'm glad they were...was a great inspiration to me to play drums and later the guitar!
I was at one of their first gigs in Birmingham late 60s,.might have been called the" band of Joy" they were hungry and vibrant then ,but fame and fortune soon destroyed their spirit and drive,.
ted ponsonby it's a shame what fame and money does to people! I always wanted to make one good song and make tons of money, then retire...like the guy with "Spirit in the Sky". A one hit wonder and he's still living off the royalties! Awesome!☺
A very good explanation of Jimmy Page style of play. Thank you.
No problem!
No one can create on the fly such magnificent music. He pulls magic out of thin air every time
JP! my absolute favorite! (no offense Fil). I think that some people thought Led Zeppelin to be "sloppy" because they did so much improvisation. That why no two concerts were ever exactly the same! They were an incredibly "tight" band and could play off each other without effort. Obviously Jimmy is in "the zone" here! LOVE!
👍
While Jimmy is wailing away just listen to the rhythm section. I'm a guitar player so i love a great solo like anyone but Bonham and Jones were TIGHT.
Yeah they were solid as a rock as usual!
Agree with you 100%
My all time fave band!!!! Each and every member a unique talent in their own right! From my teeny bopper years at the age of 12-13 I fell in love with LED Zeppelin! The first songs I heard on my transistor radio were Immigrant Song & Whole Lotta Love. I have followed them ever since & now my grandchildren even love them! With You Tube I can watch them jam anytime I want. It is amazing to me that this year marks Led Zeppelin’s 50th anniversary of their beginning. I watch this particular video quite often. I can just see the way your face lights up & your big smile that you really like them, too!
Yeah this is great to watch!
Jimmy is the king of improvisation in his live performances, it's kind of cool that he can do that I think he was is and always will the best guitarist of all time
No one was playing like that until Jimmy Page came along. After Jimmy stepped on the stage a new wave of playing took hold.
Phillip Ward I wonder what would have happened if Led Zeppelin was never formed and we never had their music I always wonder what rock music would have been?
shane mccormick no one can really say, but you can be sure that music would be different today. Having said that, David Gilmore was set before Led Zepplin came along. So without any certain individual, music would be basically the same, their stamp just wouldn't be there. In effect Jimmy Page opened up the door and people who could stepped through it.
Clapton did the same thing live, as well as lots others, this is from Mid 70's. check out early BBC broadcast clips '68-'72. lots artists played "free" - improvised in the moment. Page is great, but so were Clapton, Garcia, Alvin Lee, etc.
9wen Wilson the worst moment in rock history was when Duane Allman and Peter Green sat in with The Grateful Dead on Dark Star.
Phillip Ward can't judge from 1 song, did you listen to the whole show track ? What generation of recording? Was it from a taper or soundboard mix? I toured, worked, GD family from '70-'98. depending on the recording, lots can be lost. Personally, Duane,Jerry,Bobby were just amazing on ALOT of tracks,shows.
I grew up absolutely jamming to TSRTS... Hands down, best solos by Jimmy Page EVER!!! Have you reviewed the boogie jam part of Whole Lotta Love ??? Absolutely freaking incredible jam!!! Gives me goosebumps still, even after seeing it probably 200 times ..., Love your channel bro, keep up the awesome reviews !!! Hello from America my friend!
Hi Matt! Thanks for watching!
I used to stay up late to watch this on TV and record on VCR and watch it over and over. Esp Since I've been loving you, Dazed, Whole lotta love Jam...and the epic Song remains the same/Rain song masterpiece. Then I got the DVD many years later...now I can just click on youtube.
I have listened to their studio versions for a while now and just watched TSRTS last week. Love how they play live. I'm searching now for more material to watch.
You nailed that one! 👍
Jimmy Page had the best rhythm section in rock and roll backing him up, so he could afford to be a little sloppy sometimes...and it worked. Oh Lordy, did it work.
Amen!
Jimmy was never sloppy, I'd say just an out of control groovy looseness. This still gives me goose bumps after 42+ years. I grew up listening to Jimmy and he was one of my guitar heroes.
Yeah I think it's just his style!
The idea that a lot of guitarists consider Jimmy Page "sloppy" does his playing a great disservice. The sonic palette from which Jimmy derived his ideas was so, so varied and wide but also very personal. He played what he felt and expressed such a huuuge amount of ideas and sounds throughout the years as to be mind boggling, Although I've heard some dreadful work from Jimmy when he was obviously wasted, when he is on, there is nobody who sounds like him in tone, ideas or expression. In general, to say that he "missed" something is to suggest that one would know what Jimmy was going for in the first place. But if he's only judged for not being as technically accomplished as John McLaughlin or the like, then it's a waste of time.
Amen!
It's all about the big picture, it's like a painting. There's a lot of elements that go into creation of their masterpieces. It's much more than the individual brush strokes.
I love Jimmy's playing. He's never out of ideas and always teetering on the edge of his technical abilities - which are pretty big, given the era he played in. His playing, though sometimes filled with mistakes, is always moving and stirs the emotions. TSRTS STH solo is like someone speaking of an old love. Some of Jimmy's quotes that I think sum up his playing:
"I don't deal in technique. I deal in emotions."
"I'm not a guitarist as far as a technician goes, I just pick it up and play it. Technique doesn't come into it."
"When he is on" is the key phrase here. Sadly, there were many times when he was not.
@@russellharvey7096 That's not a very illuminating or intelligent thing to say. Do you have a tally showing a ratio? Jesus it's like having a bunch of teetotaling little old ladies who watch TV all day discuss some regional talent show. What's your legacy?
What I love about Page’s playing is that it always has interesting shapes, breaking from one idea to the next. In this little clip, he’s got maybe six, seven or more ideas that include separate rhythm changes. I mean who does that when soloing? This is what sets him apart from all the other players. He is like an idea manufacturing plant. Amazing
Page and Plant to some extent were able jam right on the edge of control because of Jones and Bonzo being so solid a foundation. When those guys locked in they were the best rhythm section ever Bonzo always in the pocket and Jones so freakin solid always there. I don't think Jimmy's technique was sloppy just that when you ride that close to the edge you fall off sometimes. The Song Remains the Same version of No Quarter is Page at his rippin best!
Yeah he sails close to the wind, but that's all part of it!
Never heard it put that way. Well said. That is how I am going to describe him, if you don't mind!
I played that track for many people the minds that have been blown
I like how Robert Plant compliments Jimmy Page's guitar. His singing really matches what Jimmy is doing. Great video. Cheers!
No problem!
Scating
They were one of the greatest bands on the planet, if not the greatest. If Page is sloppy, it is pleasing a great many people. Page was bold playing off the cuff, and never sticking to rigid rules. Sloppy needs credit , if it sells nearly 300 million albums.
David Batey you give me a Chill Jimmy Page is my hero become on my childhood Jimmy Page top of The Mountain 🤟🎸🎸
Jimmy to me is the best guitarists ever. I love Jimmy's ❤️ he is the master
its like the whole group were reading each others minds when playing on stage.very unique & talented musicians combined their talents to make music that was more than the sum of its parts.the movie version of the song remains the same/ rain song was a HUGE demonstration of their vast versatility in musical skills.a holy shit moment,
To the people saying page is too sloppy ...No one can play like page people try but can't. this is improvising at its finest. you wont catch steve vai playing like this or joe satch (great players) because they don't have pages mindset. It's hard to try and emulate page he has infinite sounds that'll make you wonder how he even does that. his sloppiness makes him unique and a little slop doesn't hurt anybody it just adds to the guitar lore. All the greats had a pinch of slop ( Duane allman, hendrix, roy buchanan, clapton etc) slop is part of the guitar lore just the right amount though.
Yeah I think Page never played the same line exactly the same way.
wingsofpegasus exactly lol
And what is awesome is that Vai and Satriani (Steve Morse too) absolutely LOVE Page!
Really good clip! This was Zeppelin in 73 at the garden in New York. They are all in thier prime here and it shows Big time! The set list incredible. From the first A chord of RockN Roll to the straight on attack of since I've been loving you to the best 12 string playing on the song remains the same anyone will ever see to the note for note perfection at the end of Stairway all improvised is sheer genious by Page and all of the band clearly proving they were the best band in the world! There will never again be four greater musicians on stage at the same time!!!
The way they gelled as a band was amazing!
Watching this in October 2023 and just WOW and thanks.Your face lightes up as you watch Jimmy Page play.🤘
I truly enjoy listening to and watching Jimmy Page playing, also hearing him talk about music and playing. I like his energy. Thank you Fil for this very respectful analysis of Jimmy Page.
At their best, Led Zeppelin could (musically) play with fire, and get away with it. This clip is a great illustration of this and a stunning example of why they were/are so revered. Thank you for posting this.
No problem!
Jimmy page was a beast of a player at the top of his game. But later in life due to a secret drug addiction after the band broke up he stopped playing I believe for a while and that’s apparent when he’s in a concert with Eric Clapton you can see Eric has brought him along as his friend and to inspire jimmy back into playing. As jimmy was very rusty in that concert. But in his prime of playing he was a monster
The film footage of that concert shows the train wreck that Page was by that point. Fortunately, he was able to straighten himself out.
Dazed and Confused from their concert movie The Song Remains The Same, excellent!. Jimmy's solo on No Quarter from the same concert movie is quite brilliant. His playing on Since I've Been Loving You, which is in the movie but not on the soundtrack, is brilliant as well. Word of warning though, do not watch that movie while under the influence of acid. It could cause one to become extremely annoyed with Robert Plant's screeching and moaning.
Lol duely noted!
You do realize that a lot of the audience was on acid. Led Zeppelin and acid go rather well together.
I must disagree...the 5 times that we dosed to the movie it was EXCELLENT . Big screen, apts, living roon...wow
And on nitrous!!!
first time i seen that video, i was tripping balls on shrooms...and holy fuk.. that movie was definitely made for shrooms.. like when hes walking around in the forest durin Rain Song.. he pics a mushroom and starts eating it...so right there hes saying..watch this on shrooms...
One of the greatest acid films ever!! Only thing bad about Plant is the crotch shots.
Hey, I know I'm a couple years late here, but this reminded me of some of these great 2021 pandemic performances that have been popping up on RUclips occasionally with preformers all playing together but from different locations and countries and such. The performance I'm thinking of is a truly phenomenal cover of _Zeppelin's Good Times Bad Times_ by RUclips artists Paulie Z (singer), Mr Jimmy (guitar), Tony Franklin (bass) and an 11 year old drummer, believe it or not, named Yoyoka who is a force of nature. The performances are so good and beyond entertaining that I think you would enjoy watching it even if you don't want to do an analysis of it. Phew! Sorry! Bit of a long comment.
For $6.00 U.S you would get 5/hrs of Zeppelin Live in '73 .Extended jams were the norm back then, improvised solos, songs merged into 3,4,5 other songs & back again. Great era of musicianship across all genres. Being flawless and playing to a grid wasn't a thing yet. Thank God for that. Free-style Rock'n'Roll. \m/ Fil.
Amen!
I knew if I patiently went through your catalog of videos you'd get to my favorite guitarist and group. Jimmy has been my favorite since I first saw their live movie nearly 40 years ago.
Cool!
EXCELLENT commentary, Fil. I've watched that clip of 'Dazed' countless times and it always inspires me.
This is the part of TSRTS that I go back to again and again. This was an incredible showcase of his talent. He was on his game. Fearless !!
What a great clip to feature!!!!!
Thanks!
Until this universe explodes, Jimmy will be forever remembered.
Page is fun to watch. More of this please! Really liked this one.
Thanks Rod!
I played this entire concert along with the album quite a few times.
It was a helluva show in my room, trust me. I was sweating at the end. Good. God damn. Times.
Nice!
Wingsofpegasus, same here Fil and if I forgot to tell you , your doing a great job and I enjoy your analysis very much Thank You !
Thanks Charles! No problem!
A real pleasure to see The Man Himself featured.
No problem!
When I was a teenager, I got so hooked on those runs, and how beautiful they sounded. Thanks!
Just brilliant, true expression and improvised magic. All emotion and risk taking, best guitarist ever!
Man, what can you say about this concert? This is why I picked up guitar 25 years ago. I think the intro solo and mid solo on Since I've Been Loving You is the best solo Jimmy plays. It's complete emotion. And Roberts vocals...! If you could review that sometime, appreciate it! But really every band member at this time was incomparable and on top. Even John Paul's bass playing is inspiring. Great review here!
Amen! Thanks Randy!
John Paul Jones was the unsung hero of Led Zeppelin.
I saw Zeppelin in 76 and your so right, my friends and I went to concerts to hear the band live...led Zeppelin never let you down, I've been playing for almost 40 years and Jimmy is the reason why I play guitar,....
Awesome!
They did not played live in 1976
Flat Plane Dynamite thats weird they never toured in 76 so it must have been a good trick to see them that year
knight flyer I think you need to tell that to flat plane dynomite every ledhead (Im one) knows what years they were on tour and not
knight flyer possible
If he plays like crazy , that’s what we all loved about him…he is a master at his craft…how could u not enjoy this sound!!!!? I grew up with it…..it’s only rock and roll and I Like It!!!!like it live it Yes I do!
Always enjoy your commentary. I'm 65, and we used to call Page's playing "loose" not sloppy. I mean that in a good way. I prefer that to the precise, pre-planned work...which is amazing also! Keep on rocking, brother!
I know I was supposed to be paying attention to Mr. Page. But those drums were pushing me against my will (in a good way). What a force of nature Led Zepplin was.
👍
Bonham’
The “Brown Sound” in all its glory here. Dazed live was a evolving work in progress. If you look at their tour schedule from the ‘73 tour and go back and listen to boot recordings you’ll hear where all this jamming came from and led up to. They ran this workout six out of seven nights for like eighteen months straight. Total ensemble type jam. It was like a flock of birds in that everyone would follow a particular idea and run with it….until the next one. Many of the musical passages heard in Dazed ‘73 can be traced back to live performances back to ‘69.
it is so good to see you so excited over his live solo's. I have seen Led Zeppelin twice Rochester, NY 1971 and NYC Madison Square Garden 1975 Zeppelin Concerts were awesome....
My first hero was Ace Frehley. '75 or so, I got turned onto Hendrix and many others. What always impressed me about Page was I'd hear him solo and I'd think that's EXACTLY what I'd have played
Jimi Page played lead guitar on the title track on Al Stewart's album: "Love Chronicles" which was basically all acoustic ballads. Yes he can play to anything!
👍
That is an incredibly busy rhythm section! Superb stuff Fil, a classic moment captured for our benefit
It is!
Great clip and a fine analysis of it, thanks,. I've listened to Page for 40 years and his playing still inspires me. He is incredibly imaginative and expressive and has a deep sense of music. As one person said below, his playing is very orchestral and this piece is a good example of that- as are Achilles Last Stand, Kashmir, No Quarter and many others.
I agree with you Fil, about having the melody and feel , with all that being expressed through the fret board. For me personally, as a guitar teacher you know, having the technical skills is very important and necessary..... it's what you do with your playing as an individual, that shines through. Almost like expressing your inner soul through a guitar , giving us all the most fantastic of MUSIC!!!! Just my opinion though. I am by no means a professional musician , just a huge fan of rock music. Love ya Fil, ROCK!!🎸☮️
This is the part of the film that inspired me to play guitar when I was 14!
This is the song/performance that made me pick up the guitar years ago. Haven't put it down since.
Awesome!
They were famous for their live JAMS. Saw them in L.A. around this time, maybe a yr or two later. It was an incredible experience. And yes they played various versions of their songs in concerts. Page and Plant were able to "follow" each other. Thanks
I was there Fil at Madison Square Garden’ Too incredible for words 👍👍❤️
Bonham was incredible too!!!👍😎
Yeah such a solid rhythm section in there!
wingsofpegasus yep!☺
Bonzo playing "Moby Dick" is one of my abiding memories from seeing this concert live. The guy was like an Olympic athlete running a marathon in 20 minutes. Hands, feet, body coordination off the charts. Superhuman!
I think Jimmy Page and Duane Allman were the best of there era when it comes to jamming like this, albeit completely different styles. And Duane was no slouch when it came to a signature tone/feel either,lol
\m/
On fire indeed. I wore this album out in the late 70's early 80's and still love to hear it...and what about that rythym section that keeps up with him.
Best band ever!!
My friends husband wore out Zeppelin II
I became inspired to take up guitar when I heard jimmy playing on zep one and two. Ive always loved his playing and his riff writing is unbeatable. Please do more jimmy analysis!
Page's Heartbreaker live solo is what inspired Van Halen to create Eruption. That was the spark to change guitar playing.
👍
undoubtebly no 1 rock band ...scary thing is how far no2 was behind them.
They blew away the Stones....and nobody blows away the Stones. Thats why Clapton Richards Townsend all badmouth Page and Zepp " oh ...they play too hard! Or fast ..or Loud!!!!" Fucking JEALOUS babies
Just discovered your channel - and I think you are spot on about Jimmy. My favorite layer, especially live. I collected old bootlegs and the same songs on the same tours sound different over different nights - and all amazing. Great video and I'll be back - thanks!
Best front duo ever in my opinion. Such a mastermind of creativity.
Anyone wanting to hear what Jimmy sounds like live when he was top of his game, listen to the `72 show in Austrailia when Jimmy is playing the solo on Dazed and Confused.
Thanks for the reference!
Led Zeppelin: Deep Down Under [Australia 1972] - RUclips
ruclips.net/video/KlRLpThDpEc/видео.html
Actually, there are SO many good ones from back then (I have most of them). The '73 European tour is loaded with great ones!
Just the SRTS album alone qualifies Jimmy to be the best. Every note, every phrase, the way each phrase stops and goes onto the next is so masterful. No one comes close. Give me Jimmy at his sloppiest over anyone else at their best any time.
Absolutely perfect bit you chose to analyze! So rad!!
Those Dazed & Confused improvs comprise some of the most dynamic & exhilarating live guitar I've ever heard. The thing with this Song Remains the Same performance is that he just keeps belting out powerful guitar lines for twenty minutes & doesn't relent. It's an audio assault of the senses. It reaches a tremendous climax before returning to Robert's final verse. Then Jimmy goes above & beyond the call of duty to deliver a blistering finale that takes something which has already essentially peaked to yet another level. I've never seen another guitarist do that.
Okay, he makes some mistakes but that’s because he playing a hundred notes a second and his fingers are flying all over the Fretboard. Of course he’s going to miss a few notes. His right hand can barely keep up with the left! The players making sloppy comments are jealous cause they can’t even approach his speed! He was the fastest gun in the West back then!
Even now he’s blazing fast!
Sloppy or not, there is more heart and more interesting ideas in this than the vast majority of rock players manage to convey. And, yeah, his phrasing and feel is so unique and funky!! IMO a lot of the "slop" is rhythmically brilliant! and very hard to copy.
Jimmy's jamming is out of this world!
at 2min28 that where the camera man step ont the wahwah ! Then you can see Jimmy get back to the wahwah to continu. This is SO great!
Sloppy? Give me that sloppy all day and twice on Sunday
Pure, raw, uninhibited excitement. The best!
👍
It's some of the best live PAGE I've seen and heard .About the sloppy , well I play and he is playing from his head and heart .Great improv Jimi Hendrix was sometimes referred to as sloppy . He love LSD. that may had something to do with it and or a lot of his playing was off the cuff improv and like Page didn't play it quit the same way live . Also you can pick those 2 out no matter what they play . Just like what you said . Cool video man .Thanks
No problem!
Two of the greatest.add Zappa and they own rock n roll
Jimmy's my fav. The king of the riff and his jams light my hair on fire
That solo put the biggest grin on my face yet! He will forever go down as one of the legends of rock guitar!
👍
There's nearly 20 minutes of Jimmy soloing in the full version, not a single mistake
Jimmy was anything but "sloppy" until the latter days of Zeppelin...there's a lot of hate for Zep's commercial success, but anyone who was around back then, there's millions of dejected guitar wannabe's that gave up trying to sound "sloppy" like Jimmy.
Never understood the hatred of commercial success . Bands are a business , they need to make a living .
@@peterthegreat996 Generally, I'd agree, but there's 2 different types of commercial ROCK, There's greatness that sells, Beatles/Stones/Zeppelin and there's downright commercial HACK Rock/pop like Boston or Toto, that ilk.
@@bishlap Zep fan here, there is absolutely nothing wrong with toto.
Jimmy was jamming from an early age and I always thought that he had a short attention span therefore he liked to adapt his playing from time to time especially in concerts. I just love his creativity, never boring.
My favorite guitar solo...must have listen to this 30 minute marathon at least a 100 times from end to end! Dazed and Confused live...TSRTS.
Jimmy was almost impressionistic as a player - it probably carries over from his art training. Not really always precise, in a classic sense, but like impressionistic painters, always had form, and intent. Calling Page sloppy is like calling Monet sloppy.
😂👍
To me page is god on the guitar
Although I'm a keyboardist this solo, and as importantly the band interactions and dynamics during the solo, was a defining moment in my life when I saw the Zepp film for the first time. The No Quater guitar solo backed by JPJ's Rhodes playing was another climax in this very concert.
The versions of dazed and confused and no quarter that are on the album soundtrack are much better than the movie because they haven't been messed with. In the movie you can hear where the solar was kind of hacked up and Jimmy pieced it together in the studio but if you listen to the album version it runs straight through and the solo and no quarters way better than in the film .
I NEVER EVER get tired of LZ! I have ALL of their CD's and DVD's...Sunday afternoons with a LZ DVD and some absinthe and paints...well...there ya go! PERFECTION! I just LOVE how Bonzo and Robert and JPJ stay right IN the jam with him! It's incredible how tight of a band they really were! ROCK ON!
