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.

I like change and I like contrast.

It's interesting when something new comes along, a band of dwarfs playing electronic harps or something, but I'm not searching.

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.

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.

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.

Domesticity and all that isn't really for me.

My finger picking is sort of a cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence.

I'm still searching for an angel with a broken wing. It's not very easy to find them these days.
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.
Jimmy Page
Image
I don't feel I have to top myself at all.

I always thought the good thing about the guitar was that they didn't teach it in school.

There's so many different styles and facets of the 360-degree musical sphere to listen to. From tribal to classical music, it's all there. If the bottom was to sag out of that, for God's sake, help us all.

I'm attracted by the unknown, but I take precautions.

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.
