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.

If you are on to something creative, school can also inhibit you. The wrong teacher, man, can really mess you up.

All my houses are isolated. Many is the time I just stay home alone.

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.

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.

You don't find geniuses in street musicians, but that doesn't mean to say you can't be really good.

Live Aid did feel like one hour's rehearsal after several years, but to be part of Live Aid was wonderful. It reall was.

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.

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

Once I got a guitar that was relatively user-friendly, but not super-duper easy, I really came on as a guitarist, at that point. It helped. It was a super-expensive guitar either, but something needs to steer you a bit, if you're playing an instrument that is really hard.

I'm over 30 now, but I didn't expect to be here.

I love playing. If it was down to just that, it would be utopia.

I'm at my best when I'm exhausted and under pressure.

No. I usually rest in my satin-lined coffin, actually. I'm not allowed out in daylight hours.

Every musician wants to do something which will hold up for a long time, and I guess we did it with 'Stairway to Heaven.'
