More quotes by Jimmy Page
My vocation is more in composition really than anything else - building up harmonies using the guitar, orchestrating the guitar like an army, a guitar army.
Jimmy Page
Live Aid did feel like one hour's rehearsal after several years, but to be part of Live Aid was wonderful. It reall was.
Jimmy Page
You can't buy time. Everything, for me, seems to be a race against time. Especially musically.
Jimmy Page
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
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
You don't find geniuses in street musicians, but that doesn't mean to say you can't be really good.
Jimmy Page
I'm not afraid of death. That is the greatest mystery of all. That'll be it, that one. But it is all a race against time.
Jimmy Page
You never knew what was going to happen in concert. It was a really exciting prospect to go onstage, and you can hear that in the live recordings ... wherever we were and whatever year it was, we always went onstage determined to do our best.
Jimmy Page
So far I've been very, very fortunate because it appears that people like to hear the music I like to play. What more fortunate position can a musician be in?
Jimmy Page

Jimmy Page
I'm over 30 now, but I didn't expect to be here.
Jimmy Page
But if you want me to knock Kingdom Come, all I will say is that I heard the guitarist said he'd never heard my playing, and I'd defy any guitarist in American not to have heard Led Zeppelin.
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 beauty of the band was you never knew what was going to come out next.
Jimmy Page
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
I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.
Jimmy Page
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.
Jimmy Page
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.
Jimmy Page
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.
