Quote

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.

Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.
Jimmy Page
Image
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
Image
If you wanted to chart new territories and head off over the horizon, you had to make sure you weren't overly influenced by what others were doing ... so it didn't matter what other bands were doing ... we did what we were doing.
Jimmy Page
Image
From the classical guitar right through to the furthest electrical experiments and everything in-between, it's amazing what the guitar can actually do. I mean, when one thinks about sounds.
Jimmy Page
Image
You can't just find yourself doing something and not happy doing it.
Jimmy Page
Image
I always thought the good thing about the guitar was that they didn't teach it in school.
Jimmy Page
Image
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.

Domesticity and all that isn't really for me.

There will be a Led Zeppelin as long as there's a Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones and Robert Plant. This isn't a nostalgia band playing the hits forever. If anything ever happened and somebody left - which I really can't see happening - I don't think we'd bother to carry on. The magic for me is as it is now.

I do not worship the devil. But magic does intrigue me. Magic of all kinds. I bought Crowley's house to go up and write in. The thing is, I just never get up that way. Friends live there now.

I don't feel I have to top myself at all.
Jimmy Page
Image
The only term I won't accept is genius.

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.

This week, I'm a gypsy. Maybe next week it'll be glitter rock.
Jimmy Page
Image
I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.
Jimmy Page
Image
I'm at my best when I'm exhausted and under pressure.
Jimmy Page
Image
You can't buy time. Everything, for me, seems to be a race against time. Especially musically.
Jimmy Page
Image
I think it's time to travel, start gathering some real right-in-there experiences with street musicians around the world.

Image
There's so much that can be done on the guitar. And that's what is so good about the guitar - everyone can really enjoy themselves on it and have a good time, which is what it's all about.

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.
