Jimmy Page is an English musician, songwriter, and record producer who achieved international success as the guitarist and founder of the rock band Led Zeppelin.
Page began his career as a studio session musician in London and, by the mid-1960s, alongside Big Jim Sullivan, was one of the most sought-after session guitarists in Britain. He was a member of the Yardbirds from 1966 to 1968. In late 1968, he founded Led Zeppelin.
Page is widely considered to be one of the greatest and most influential guitarists of all time. Rolling Stone magazine has described Page as "the pontiff of power riffing" and ranked him number 3 in their list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time."

@@johnpolitis298 Cookie Monster??? What is this, evil Sesame Street? Please, get a life🐱🐱🐱
It's clear that Jimmy Page is a thinking man's musician. His success and the success of Led Zeppelin was no accident. He had a vision for his career and the drive to pursue it. He surrounded himself with the best support team and proceeded to make it happen. I admire him for this as well as for his incredible artistry.
Were you present when he sold his soul for success in this world?
+MetalGuru965 i was, he didnt even flinch whn Lucifer showed him the plane of hell specially constructed for the band, he actually shushed the devil and then told him to give him his shit so he could go fuck 14 year old girls while high on LSD, coke, heroin, quaaludes, etc. robert kinda just sat there in a corner sayin some girls name over and over and that hes sorry, JPJ just felldown weepint and moaning, and Bonzo was arm wrestling and drinking with Luci. It was quite the scene
Mosixman lmfaooooo someone has gotta make a skit of this...
Gods Elect lol people actually believe that shit
John Paul Young was his equal.
Can we just thank heavens that there is a technology that can bring into our living rooms for free an interview like this? I for one will never stop being grateful.
All part of Satan's master plan to indoctrinate humanity ;)
Yeah man. Jimmy page moved me from being a pop and country fan to the world of led zeppelin and hard rock in 1970. In the 21st century Jimmy is giving a lecture at Oxford. Damn!! 😆
For all the evils social media is, the trade off is some remarkable jewels like this. Mostly I appreciate my algorithm more than I hate it.
Jimmy Page | Full Address and Q&A at The Oxford Union. 23.4.24. Amazing what you learn just listening to dome dude wax shout OTO....thought this might be interesting.....
I actually met him and had quite a long chat with him several years ago in a hotel in Spain. I was in awe - and he was so down-to-earth and amenable, a really natural guy. One of the most memorable moments of my life - he even autographed my Fender Strat. And no, Jimmy, I have not sold nor will ever sell that guitar.
He could've just stood there, and I'd applaud.
jsilence418 Maybe your autocorrect will start working when you calm down.
That's the best you could come up with because what I say is true.Especially about the low quality of Page fans.
jsilence418 You came at me with your mind made up. I've no need to refute you or be defensive. Hope your week is going well.
+jsilence418 Why the need to be so hostile? Just let him be.
Nice comment, very funny, i would applaud also. What a great man he is.
Each time he waves his hand, I hear the theramin.
who is your dealer, man?

Tea Head thats funny bro😎 jimmy rules 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🔊🔊🔊🎶🎶🎶
I saw him do "that" ... "bow" too , unreal , very, very unreal ...indeed :)
That was Brian Wilson.
There will never be another Jimmy Page. He is on a different level than the rest of us. The more I learn about him, his music, his knowledge, the more I am in awe. What a great time to be alive on this planet at the same time as Jimmy Page.

@@jimmypage7275 Jimmy, as you are probably aware, there are many reactors of music that are following Zeppelin from the first lp right to the end. I've encouraged those not familiar with your music to start from the beginning, so as to grasp the creative unfolding of the band and it's music.
The reactions I've witnessed from those hearing the music for the first time brings a joy to my heart, and allows me to reexperience my discovery all over again.
I just want to thank you for being true to yourself and your audience.

Page should publish an audio book reminiscing about each album and track.
Hermon Hill I’d be happy listening to him recite his grocery list over and over.
Absolutely this, JPJ and RP could contribute as well.
I would buy that.
There is no doubt but I feel this way for every recording artist.
He couldn't remember a lot of it unless he wrote a diary.
That was 45-50 yrs ago.
I played this clip backwards and got nothing.
If you invert it it says "Little Richard is your rocknroll God"
Well keep playing the backwards method backwards over and over until you can discern something recognizing or just send it to China, or France to get a translation.

@@ErikBreivik as keen as mustard..............
I'm not as old as Jimmy Page, but I'm old enough to say that as you age, you want to talk about what you have cared deeply about in life and have worked for, and what your legacy might be, and it really warms my heart to hear him talk about his origins and what he's created. Such a bright intelligence and spirit.
Exactly the same here. Also not as old as him, but I also find that as I get older I do find myself wanting to talk about things I care about and reassessing and re-evaluating different things in life.
I'm young and a musician that is in the making of his own legacy. I can only imagine the feeling of the end.
Probably the most coherent and clear interview have ever heard from any rockstar of his caliber. He was a master of dynamics and producing, something he doesn't get enough credit for
I agree. He was a musical genius!
I agree, he is a musical genius. Sadly there aren't any like him now. But the music will live on!!
I'd almost have to say that his producing might be the thing he is remembered for , even more than his guitar playing.(Which was good)
Yes you often find the guitarist in bands take on production duties, Johnny Marr with the Smiths as well.
Doesn't get enough credit LOL
Jimmy is such a well spoken, intelligent person. You don't normally think of "intellectual, well spoken" when you think of "rock n roll guitarist". I could listen to him talk for hours. So interesting to listen to this!
Good comment Joey . He is very articulate and well spoken and comes over incredibly well. Legend...
And the prize for the sanctimonious slanderer of the month goes to..... @@RollingOrmond
Jimmy is amazing... And an AwEsOmE guitarist AND Business man.. he is very smart indeed
I could listen to Jimmy Page talk for hours and be fully enthralled. David Gilmore is another guitarist I enjoy listening to; both are well-spoken Englishmen with fine intellects.
Other examples or articulate guitarists are Brian May, Mark Knopfler and david Gilmour...
My question is, who the hell are the 303 people that put thumbs down here. Led Zeppelin was one of the greatest bands of all time and have Jimmy page explains so much about the band and the history and process of their music. I give it 10 thumbs up.
You're still surprised by the fact that there are people out there with a limited taste and no brains? After all, hip hop is one of the the reigning genres of pop music, half of Britain voted for Brexit, and half of America for Cheeto in Chief.
fact is ...there are legions of people who will object to just about anything ...they are hyper frustrated, hyper stressed and completely fucking wasted on cheap fast food...cheap alcohol and cheap philosophy. They are hatred incarnate. don't let them foil you....they belong with the garbage at the dump....but they have a right to live and express themselves. this is the Web in 21st C.
By listening to his speeches you can clearly understand why he achieved what he achieved: passion, dedication, talent, humbleness above all
Jimmy Page is as passionate about music now at 73 as he was when he first picked up the guitar, that is love.
Sock Socky Then why doesn't he release anything?
Hessel van der Wal I don't know, I really wish he would release something then tour, I saw Jeff Beck a few years ago and it was the best concert I've even seen. I know Page has spent the last few years re-mixing and mastering the entire Zep catalog. That was time consuming, maybe now that he's done with that he'll have time to record some new material.
Sock Socky : He did mention this on an interview. And he has finished the remastering.
He played with Jeff Beck. I think Jeff Beck is a better guitar player.
Page would probably agree with you. I've seen Page in concert more times than any other Zep Member, all post-Zeppelin from the Firm right to the Black Crowes shows. He is a joy to watch play, but I am definitely biased. I did get to see Jeff Beck one on the "Loud Hailer" tour- and he was nothing less than fucking amazing. It's like the guitar is a part of his body, one white Strat the entire night, no effects, just his guitar, and amp.I was really fortunate to be there. You could tell there were a lot of guitar players in the audience the night I saw him, everyone's jaws were in their laps. It was inspiring. Cheers!
Imagine having Jimmy Page come and talk to you for an hour. Wow. I _really_ hope those kids appreciate how fortunate they are!
I reckon
Thank you Jimmy you have given me so much joy. I wish you all the best. ❤🎶😎
I would welcome
Your personal information. ❤️😎🎶
The man himself, he's the reason I started playing guitar. You can spend a lifetime studying his style.
I saw them 4 times in the 70's..No one in the audience has and will ever be able to grasp who Jimmy Page was as a working rock star..The experience was like no other..He was so commanding..Magical is a good description.
PEDOPHILE IS A BETTER DESCRIPTION

@IndustrialBaking Complex lolol
Absolutely! :D
28:01 "Very calculated but with artistic integrity." What a gem of a statement.
Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. They both are #1 - each for their musical style; which to this day remains 100% relevant and perfection. Geniuses.
I always rank the progression as Beatles, followed jointly by PF & LZ. I highly doubt we would have seen the same PF or LZ without the Beatles, despite them all having the same influences.
@@rovcanada1the Beatles are not even close to level of musicianship that LZ and PF had. They are heads and shoulders above them. So are Deep Purple. In fact the Beatles are massively overrated. Catchy tunes does not translate to well composed complicated music. They are not one and the same. One is fun, one is art.
It should be Sir Jimmy Page!! Wonderful video that just shows how special and amazing this man is. What a life, what an artist, the definition of Epic.
lew4kids Amen! It should have been long before Sir Mick! 🙄
It should be and it isn't. Sir Rod Stewart should give him his.
Nah, no need for that pointless and outdated title.
He's simply an incredible genius, and I do love the fact that he seems to be at his most artistic and creative, when he's at home writing and then in the studio. It's all substance with Jimmy Page.

@@imaninternettroll1660 go fuck yourself.
Sun Cat The girl he had sex with was the one who said Bowie was the first one to have fucked her. She’s just faking it I believe.
@@Nred9999 Lol shes not faking it at all, she had been with Bowie. The L.A. Queens are world famous groupies. Jimmy dated "that girl" Lori Maddox for quite a long time. It's a fact.
Sun Cat oh is it? But did she state that jimmy forced himself upon her or was she just fine with it ??
@@Nred9999 The question of rape in particular wasnt claimed by anyone here. I merely pointed out that Jimmy Page was fucking 14 year olds when he was 28. And technically a child cannot give sexual consent, so 'legally' it is always rape when an adult has sex with a child. Its fairly concerning you need this explained to you.
Saw them for the first time in 71'as a youngin' at the L.A Forum...They played 3 hours and did 4 encores
I was absolutely stunned and mesmerized in bliss.watching their performance.
Absolutely incredible performance and the best musical experience of my whole life...(and I've had many)
Engrained forever in my memory
God bless Jimmy Page ...Thank you for the memories.
ZEPPELIN FOREVER
❤Lucky u
He doesn't get enough credit as a producer. Led Zeppelin always had a good sound. On record as well as live. Especially Bonzo's drums.
Ed Migliaccio John Paul Jones did most of the production with Page.
+zephyra totally agree. ..he was the secret sauce
Bonzo's drum sound was the key to the whole smash without it- no Zeppelin..
Ed Migliaccio Jimmy Page with his "apprenticeship "as a studio session man,he eagerly absorbed all of the "tricks" of mike placement and "directionality ", "room dimensions ",etc.There is a legend about the sound of Bonham thunderous drum sound. It seems that Bonzo was inspired through a dream:2 line the inside of the shells of the kick drum and toms. With heavy duty Aluminum Foil' 2 enhance the presence and projection !
Hammer of the Gods!🐳✨🙏🏼✨
@@fastfoodreviewcoffeeandelv9470 [citation needed]
He reminded the audience that Zeppelin's music was unusual and experimental, even for the late 60's. Of course their style was subsequently so influential, that we now see it as mainstream.

Jimmy Page is the reason I fell in love with guitars and the sound they make...
Mysterywhiteboy78 who are you...a famous musician too? Is this really Jeff Beck?
Me too!
He's the reason I put it down.
I like how he acknowledges they were "master musicians" and that he was creating a new art form. Great talk.
Humility has rarely been a defining characteristic of Jimmy Page or Led Zeppelin, but I suppose one could say the same of almost any band.
Creating a new art form? LZ are renowned among musicians for being derivative populist hacks
Andrew Reddy you, my friend, are the definition of derivative. Its an old and tired argument, and doesnt really speak much to the music, only that someone had played a certain melody or written a line the same way, a very superficial way to look at music.
Derivative maybe, but who else had done it in a way that defined a genre like Led Zeppelin did? It's been what, nearly 38 years since LZ disbanded and we're still discussing them as if it was yesterday?
George: October 17, 1968 was their first concert. Next year will be their 50th Anniversary. I can't wait!!

I LOVE JIMMY PAGE.♥️Such a sweet guy. Now 76, it looks like he’s doing pretty good. He does not drink and quit cigarettes a good 20 years ago.
He still lies and tries to act like he was doing original things though. Good on him for giving up the cigs and booze though, that's commendable in and of itself👍
"... whether it was acoustic music, whether it was classical music, whether it was rock'n'roll music, whether it was blues music, country blues music, I was just -- had a voracious appetite for all of it."
As a musician, it makes me happy to relate to him on this matter.
I'm sure Jimmy gives a shit
Page doesn't get enough credit as a RECORD PRODUCER.
sure he does. EVERY zeppelin fan knows and adores his production.
He does in my house.
Nor for his immaculate frank spencer impersonation
Page gets PLENTY credit as producer and JPJ is not underrated. sheesh, same shit-different dAY.
You cannot have been speaking to musicians?
Changed my life in1970. He was so alive, made me want to be awake. So grateful and in awe of him today.
Should have gone for another hour. Page was clearly up to it. Solid gold, this.
A masterclass from the Lord of the Strings!
Wonder if the people who left that acoustic guitar, in the house the Page’s moved into, have any idea what that lead too. Or what may have never been otherwise.

Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.
Cool
Pure class and way ahead of his time. A true master.
Jimmy has really changed since I saw him 43 years ago at The Checkerdome(arena) in St. Louis Mo! Lessons learned that night:
1. He really is THAT good.
2. John Paul Jones is the secret sauce behind Zep.
3. Robert Plant was not only a phenomenal vocalist... he was a natural entertainer.
4. John Bonham really liked whiskey. Bottle of Jack Daniel's next to his kit. Of course he killed on drums.
A night to remember for this then-17 yearold. 20th row center. These were my heroes.
No one really questioned his guitar playing abilities back then. That's more of a modern fallacy that he was only a good studio musician. Much of this is due to his style that may come across as "sloppy" in an age of post editing. To the point, modern music has become artificial and souless. I mean real talent isn't necessary scarce. It's just not welcome or even needed. Oh you can't sing? No problem. You don't play an instrument? No problem.
@@Justafeller Agreed! That's why my cover band is 'old school'. If there are four way vocal harmonies ... we sing four harmonies with NO harmonizers, backing tracks, etc. Same with all guitars and keys. No pace to hide. We, a band of four, took on 'Stairway' and 'Free Bird' last year because, as you are probably aware .... there is always that one guy that yells out "Play Stairway" or "Play Free Bird". Well we performed both last year and the crowds. went. wild. Now both are often on our set list. Few can believe that we would take these on-- especially in the vocal and guitar departments. Fortunately we have a gunslinger of a guitarist and a vocalist who does a very solid Robert Plant. All good. All fun. Keeping it real ... as best we can.
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💚
I was there. Fortunately for me Robert Plant got sick and they had to cancel the original show, I didn't have a ticket to that one but was able to get one for the make up show. I remember RP saying thanks for waiting at the end. Great show,my heroes. I was a junior at Parkway West Sr high at the time.
Fascinating listening to Jimmy. He is remarkably humble and without ego considering where he sits in the pantheon of rock-'n'-roll history. Quite a lifetime achievement Jimmy - thanks to you and your fellow musical geniuses in Led Zeppelin.
What a master...The Rain Song, still touches my heart
"Upon us all, a little rain must fall...Just, just, just a little rain...":)
Mine too; it's one of their best tracks and unjustly overlooked IMO.
Payton20ADZ "The Rain Song" is the most beautiful song ever written, my favorite song of all time!!!
I think that's my fav too
The Rain Song is in my top 5 Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin song... 🎸💝🎸
I have great adoration and respect for Jimmy as a highly cultured and refined man. I would have loved to have been seated in this hall of learning to hear Jimmy speak but thank goodness for the video here.
J William Pope : Research what your talking about.
You sound hot.
I can find one case where he did have a (mutual consent) relationship with a 14-year old girl (Lori Maddox), so i do not understand why our pious Pope is using the plural here ("14 year old chicks"). And i also wonder if our pious Pope would have been so disciplined himself. Jimmy was 26 at that time and they just fell in love ... It can happen, and she actually appears to be quite adult, so think it is a gross exaggeration to call him "a paedophile" (Conan 1812). And why call Lori a "groupie tramp"? How can you speak in such a negative way about persons that you do not even know?
J william Pope strange how Page does the Lori Maddox thing and it's fine Kevin Spacey tries it with a 14 year old and is ( rightfully of course)villified.
jsilence418: It is a totally different case, because there was no mutual consent and Spacey tried to rape the person involved. See: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/oct/30/kevin-spacey-anthony-rapp-apologises-accused-sexual-advance-14-year-old-boy
"Anthony Rapp claimed he was left traumatised after Spacey lay on top of him during evening at actor’s apartment 31 years ago (...) He said Spacey “sort of stood in the doorway, kind of swaying. My impression when he came in the room was that he was drunk ... He picked me up like a groom picks up the bride over the threshold."
The case of Jimmy Page and Lori Maddox was totally different. As Lori describes herself, they fell in love and had a relationship for three years with mutual consent.
Just a fascinating person. An astute business man and musicologist. What a producer he was and is.
This is brilliant. Can't get enough of Jimmy Page--and all of them. Led Zeppelin rules.
Somebody hand him a guitar.
I was thinking the same thing.
He doesn’t play anymore
why not
He still plays
Tell me when he played last year please.
I worshipped Jimmy Page when I was a teenager. 30 years later, I merely admire him greatly, but every time I think about his (and Led Zeppelin's) music, I remember how much it always moved me and still does. "Physical Graffiti" was my first LZ album, and it's still, to me, the absolute apex of rock music. Everything is there on that record. A masterpiece, as nearly all of their albums were. 12 years and 9 brilliant, focused studio albums. I'm so grateful for them.
Sean Rockwell: 8 studio albums.

With recorded music;film,78's,33's,45's,reel to reel,etc. We saw and heard an amazing transition. We went through the tween,teen and young adult phase of recorded sound. Jimmy Page helped change the process. THANK YOU!😊🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸...
An incredible memory for detail
This was fantastic. Awesome to hear my childhood idol talk about legendary tunes.
indeed :)
:)
yes, good speech, but he's not particularly good at answering some of those questions.. rambled or sidetracked .. still, at 70-something thats not surprising .. they should've had him as a guest YEARS ago
Page rocks... and he is still quick witted... he was not rambling or sidetracked, he was just filtering his answers to some really sophomoric questions as best it could be done at any age.
Monsieur Page has always rambled on; it's just his style. I don't think it's the drugs or his age. The important thing is that his creative drive has been linear. He has known what he wanted to do and has done it, using a language without words. His legacy speaks for itself, and I'm perfectly happy to spend a few extra seconds waiting for him to express himself.
Reprogramming Mind Exact same sentiments here. Jimmy Page, Peter Green, Jeff Beck, Clapton, Joe Perry & Brad Whitford, Rick Derringer, Buck Dharma, etc.
The drums on LZ records was outstanding, Jimmy made them sound so clear and powerful like no one else, even till today I consider Bonzo s drum sound as a benchmark sound.
It was miles ahead of the other bands ...
Not to diminish the work of Glyn Johns, Eddie Kramer, Andy Johns, et al.
I am so thankful that i was alive as they debuted and continue to listen to it all still! such great times of life
I have been very lucky to have him in my cab and drive him around London at least 3 times.he is a lovely person.and i am a LZ FAN !
that's awesome Rocco - Would be a dream come true for me.

Didnt realize this about Page. That he's a fascinating talker, sophisticated narrator. I guess the Oxford Union knew that and is why they invited him to speak.
They also invited Tommy Robinson
Legend.
Agreed. To this day, I still feel how lucky I am to have been alive at the time Zep was playing. Never been another group like them, and most likely, never will be.
saw Led Zep at Knebworth in 1979, but the film "Song remains the same was inspired me to play guitar. I saw it six times and used to wonder how anyone could play so well. A true legend.
I was at Knebworth in 1979 ,wow i'm old ...

@@willwhitfield5740 ....they were masterclass that night. I watch "in the Evening" from that show 3x a week ( ruclips.net/video/dSEClIembvU/видео.html ).... Still blows me away.
Thanks for supporting my music 🎶 I’m so grateful 🥰 and I hope you never stop being a fan, I would like to honor you by giving you my personal information if that’s ok by you.💚
Words fail to express my gratitude toward this person. May he live forever
Edward Van Halen had said “ I would like to know what there are inside the brain of jimmy Page “ it s a genius musician..
WHAT WAS INSIDE HIS BRAIN WAS PEDOPHILIA
Tiffany O'HARA
70 percent epic songs
30 percent 14 year old girls.
At least he had the decency to end the relationship himself.
@@xxxtentioncable6813 dont think you understand how different it was back in those days
@@tiffanyohara6364 Not to excuse the act... but David Bowie, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Chuck Berry, they all did this. The girls would show up, wanting this. Lori Maddox, the one girl Page slept with, that was underage, admits to losing her virginity to David Bowie
@@tiffanyohara6364 I get why you would say this but I mean the girls came to him begging for it also other extremely famous stars have most likely done the same. He has had relationships with quite a big age gap but honestly if both sides agree with the relationship I don't find a big problem with it.
I could listen to him talk all day, The dude is till so passionate about music.
So gratifying to hear Lonnie Donegan's importance to British rock getting appropriate recognition.
Shane Norman So nice to see him being recognised.... i own his studio monitors from his home studio...no tweeters as he was recording 78's. I got them from a carpenter, who got them from Lonnies bank manager....listening to the speakers that sort of got rock and roll going is a privilege. No bullshit I have them in front of me now
@@naradaian9196 send i link with the images i wanna see
Shane Norman Yes. He influenced some of the biggest bands in history.
Page's work as a player & composer is of course legendary. But his work as producer is equally legendary, particularly Zep 1. Listening to "I Can't Quit You Baby" is such a pure experience today, 50 years later!
A pure and utter musical genius and a brilliant interview. What a privilege it must have been to be in the audience and ask a question of the great man. Outstanding.
Wow, just Wow. What a wonderful genius
really.. you had wonder from just one song?
Mark 8:36 For what does it profit a man to gain the the whole world but lose his lose . Jimmy page has gained everything the world has to offer but unless he accepts Jesus Christ he will loose his soul . Really sad . Eternity is going to be far longer than a few years on earth .
Jesus is the way the truth and the life . Have a great day .
@@christianjames7210 You small-minded fool. You pathetic dogmatist. You are not worthy to pass judgement on any human being, yet you believe you have the answers. How do you make sense of yourself?
@@vinniesharkears I listened to Led Zepplin back in the 80's when I was young . My point was knowing the things Jimmy Page was involved in during his career it is sad . We are all getting older . Jimmy Page and his love of the occult and Crowley is sad . Somebody called Page a genius . I cannot Judge him Jesus will Judge him . It is just sad to me he has gained the whole world and there approval but he is going to lose his soul . Unless he accepts Jesus is my point none of us are getting any younger .
I love it when he smiles he’s the cutest ever 😄 I love him
Julie Me too, I'm totally in love with him!!!
Been in love with him since I saw him as a teen... Lol. Besides the new love in my life, Chris, I will always love Jimmy Page .. lol 😉😊🤣
@@SunshineLuvsmusic Old or not, he's still got it🐱🐱🐱
@SW627 fuck you
Like Jerry Lee Lewis.then, .with his 13 year old first cousin he married?
Saw them in 95 during the Page/Plant tour. Awesome doesn't describe it. Watching this you realize, he really is truly a genius of his genre.

I did to w/ my late brother in Boston.never unfortunately got to see led zeppelin but the 2 twin towers jimmy page and Robert plant.they did the "welcome to clarksdale album" and several Led Zeppelin covers.loved that album, had a Egyptian barge sound and of course great songs that I grew up with.Led Zeppelin-that greatest rock band of all time!!!
What a genius, what a gentleman.
Led Zeppelin fan since 69.
For ever!
Should've wore the white dragon suit.;
black or white one I wholeheartedly agree, white suit on mobile screen laptop band infront of their jet
Black suit is totally awesome!!!
Phillip S agreed Arf
Totally and with his theromin for any slight break inbetween questions ..."Hey Jimmy I justed wan".. whooooooooo wheeeeee whoo
worn
Achilles Last Stand is my favorite Zeppelin song. Epic.
Same
Agreed. The knebworth live performance on youtube is superb
@@falcodarkzz I bought the album after watching that performance, and I could not BELIEVE how much better the live version was. Which is just ridiculous. It defies logic that the live version is better - and not just a little bit, I was very, very disappointed in the album version... I've watched that live performance nearly every day since I came across it and it still just blows my mind what is achieveable. In mhy mind it's a real peak of human artistic achievement.
@@vinniesharkears I couldn't agree more. Id been listening to the studio version for years, nice song, didn't stand out to me though. Then I heard this recording, and for me at least it was transcendent. Some of the best music I've ever heard.
I saw the group in the early 70's ! Amazing ! I am in awe with Jimmy Page. I adore him ! ABSOLUTELY ! ❤

Even after all these years, Jimmy's enthusiasm is still there he is much, much more than just a phenomenal lead guitarist.

Page is so underrated. He deserves more likes and views.
Underrated? Try Rain Song.
Everyone that wants to record an album in the 1970s should listen to this advice
😅😅
Under-rated ?
Are on drugs ?
Underrated? Silly person.
There is something incredibly special about intellect combined with articulation and experience.
Jimmy is a very distinguished gentleman.

Hi
Da.......,
Janiçe Candia.....call.
What a group of privileged young people. To be in a room with a genius is a dream come true.
Kids with their heads down…no standing ovation…..wow…..your sitting in the same room as……JIMMY PAGE …
no clue….they just don’t know the greatness……unbelievable……
Well not to worry…..I understand.I get the greatness . And daily I listen to the albums.
Mesmerising.
Jimmy effortlessly makes every other person in the room look a bit sad and inadequate.
He's still got it.
No, just awe and admiration. I believe most of them are astute enough to understand that everybody has to find their own gig to excel at.

hasn't he always though.
Totally not so Chalkerfan If you look more fairly, many are quite attractive, individuals. PJ's past glories & back stage makeup artists give him an edge. The brightest healthiest beaming person spoke at the mike..maybe only 15, & radiated a glow & aliveness as much as any galaxy !🎇
What an energetic, refreshing experience. Jimmy seemed interested & enthusiastic in his descriptions and answering questions from audience members. What great memories he inspired, esp from this viewer!
The contrast between Jimmy's humble genius and the self-satisfied but stale Oxford host is stark. My friends were not out of our minds being so in love with Led Zeppelin as kids in the 70s and early 80s. It was always a special moment when we discovered the next album. These young people are just as absorbed with Led Zeppelin today as we ever were. Jimmy was disappointed when it ended. He could talk about his career forever and I could listen forever. Jimmy Page is a treasure. He dodged the subject of JPJ. Maybe I'd rather not know.
As for Jonesy, I think there is overall a huge mutual respect between him & Jimmy.
Incidents like the "he's out parking the cars" quote from Plant, as I understand it, were quite rare but OFC unfortunate. But then Plant has always had a snarky/sarcastic sense of humor, so perhaps we shouldn't be surprised (let alone shocked) when we hear those types of stories.
A phenomenal, driven, brilliant, motivated, eclectic genius.

Mind blowing to listen to a real rock legend explain producing and creating masterpieces ...
This was great! I play Guitar, Jimmy was my inspiration. First time I met Jimmy and saw Led Zeppelin was at the Whisky Sunset Strip Hollywood 1969. Saw them many times front row and went to the after party`s. Jimmy was always a great guy to talk to. Those were great times. Thanks Jimmy!
ZOSO STAR bullshit
Who cares what you believe Steven...
Who cares what you believe...
oh you lucky guy ! ....I saw LED ZEPPELIN one time: their last concert on july 8th ( - i think -) 1980 here in Berlin at the Eissporthalle with JOHN BONHAM.
Thomas, Great to hear that you got to see them, and with John Bonham. You`re lucky too! Cheers Mate... Dennis
One of the greatest guitarists in history, and certainly the coolest.
Page is like the Original Guitar God .. before him guitarists were liked but he actually started that Rock God type of vibe !!
A true master musician. No one questions his legend.
When this man walks into a room, no matter what you're doing or where your attention is focused, you sense the presence of Jimmy Page. Its very real. His spirit is bigger than the confines of his own body.
Fantastic, love the way he explains how he came up with the ideas for led Zeppelin,while explaining the climate of music at that time, such an intelligent articulate guy, excellent!
Guys, pay attention: you are facing a living legend, a rock icon, the guitar god!
As a guitarist, Jimmy Page has had a HUGE influence on me and my playing. I am, by no means, as accomplished a player a Jimmy Page, but I truly enjoy his playing and strive to learn some of his techniques and sounds. What joy I have found in trying to learn Mr. Page's riffs! I have a great love of Mr. Page and his associates in Led Zeppelin, for creating such wonderful sounds for me to attempt to emulate.
I've always said that an expert is not someone who, given a situation, knows exactly what to do; an expert is someone who knows what NOT to do. Jimmy points this out at 19:00 !
You can still see and hear the passion when he talks about music styles, as well as the creation and recording process. Amazing.
I really enjoyed this. I’ve been a Jimmy page fan since I was 12, I’m 44 now. I was introduced to led zeppelin by my dad who had a couple of albums. I loved the way he answered the questions, such honesty, such imagination and musical genius. Thank you Jimmy Page ❤️❤️👌👌
