I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.

You can't overthink the music. Mood and intensity can't be manufactured. The blues isn't about structure it's what you bring to it. The spontaneity of capturing a speciļ¬c moment is what drives it.

The idea of a hypnotic riff as the prime mover of a piece of music has been around for a long time, whether you're talking about the Delta blues or music from Middle Eastern and African cultures.

I'm not interested in turning anybody on to anybody that I'm turned on to... if people want to find things, they find them themselves.

Artists say that paintings are never done. I sort of feel the same way about music. I would never say something is perfect. There are performances that can generate a lot of emotion in me when I hear them, but I can't say if anything is perfect.

I don't know whether I'll reach 40. I don't know whether I'll reach 35. I can't be sure about that. I am bloody serious. I am very, very serious. I didn't think I'd make 30.

My guitar style was developed during that 10-year period. That's me. That's the way I play, and I don't wish to play any other way. Our own individual identities are firmly stamped on this album.

Image
You know what you can gain when you sit down with the Moroccans. As a person and as a musician. That's how you grow.

Image
I'm still searching for an angel with a broken wing. It's not very easy to find them these days.
Jimmy Page
Image
There's such a wealth of arts and styles within the guitar... flamenco, jazz, rock, blues... you name it, it's there. In the early days my dream was to fuse all those styles. Now composing has become just as important.
Jimmy Page
Image
You don't find geniuses in street musicians, but that doesn't mean to say you can't be really good.
Jimmy Page
Image
The beauty of the band was you never knew what was going to come out next.
Jimmy Page
Image
The gut-strung guitar, the classical guitar, that is a whole different world on its own. When you think what the guitar can do and what every individual player does with a guitar, everyone has their own identity coming through the guitar.

All my houses are isolated. Many is the time I just stay home alone.
Jimmy Page
Image
There's music that can affect people in their lives, and they will always relate to the point that they heard it and experienced it, either if you're playing it or you're receptive, as an audience.

If you are on to something creative, school can also inhibit you. The wrong teacher, man, can really mess you up.
Jimmy Page
Image
I deal in emotions. It's the harmonic side that's important. That's the side I expected to be much further along on than I am now. That just means to say that I've got to keep at it.
