The element of change has been the thing, really. We put out the first one, then the second... then a third LP totally different from them. It's the reason we were able to keep it together.

More quotes by Jimmy Page
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.
Jimmy Page
All my houses are isolated. Many is the time I just stay home alone.
Jimmy Page
Many people in the neighborhood liked hip-hop and house music, and I couldn't play that. You can't perform that on guitar or drums, which was what I was playing, at the time. But, I got so much from mariachi bands that were constantly playing in the neighborhood.
Jimmy Page
You can't just find yourself doing something and not happy doing it.
Jimmy Page
The beauty of the band was you never knew what was going to come out next.
Jimmy Page
I can listen to all different sorts of music. I don't really care about The Next Big Thing.
Jimmy Page
Domesticity and all that isn't really for me.
Jimmy Page
I guess the solo from 'Achilles Last Stand' is in the same tradition as the solo from 'Stairway to Heaven'...it is on that level to me.
Jimmy Page
I don't like to tell people what format they can get things in, or say, I'm only going to release this on vinyl and nothing else. You have to come to my world. I don't like to say that to people either. But, I do think there's a loss of romance.
Jimmy Page
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.
Jimmy Page
Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.
Jimmy Page
I'm very fortunate because I love what I'm doing.
Jimmy Page
It's interesting when something new comes along, a band of dwarfs playing electronic harps or something, but I'm not searching.
Jimmy Page
Once I get onstage the tension explodes and I'm fine. I'm in another world - in a trance almost, doing what I love best, expressing myself through guitar.
Jimmy Page
I love playing. If it was down to just that, it would be utopia.
Jimmy Page
I had another idea of getting a traveling medicine wagon with a dropdown side and traveling around England. That might sound crazy to you, but over there it's so rural you can do it. Just drop down the side and play through big battery amps and mixers and it can all be as temporary or as permanent as I want it to be.
Jimmy Page
Led Zeppelin didn't get that kind of Beatles screaming. We had a more sort of macho crowd. But I remember once in the early days of The Yardbirds, we were playing on an ice rink, and the stage was mobbed by screaming girls. I had my clothes torn off me. That's a really uncomfortable experience, let me tell you.
Jimmy Page
I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.
Jimmy Page
The key to Zeppelin's longevity has been change.
Jimmy Page
There's always music that moves me. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's within the parenthesis of rock or blues, or whatever. It's usually far more reaching than that. It can be in many different genres.
