Music is the one thing that has been consistently there for me. It hasn’t let me down.

My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on `Reelin' In The Years'.

I'm very fortunate because I love what I'm doing.

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

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.

Image
You can't overthink the music. Mood and intensity can't be manufactured. The blues isn't about structure it's what you bring to it. The spontaneity of capturing a specific moment is what drives it.
Jimmy Page
Image
There's music that can affect people in their lives, and they will always relate to the point that they heard it and experienced it, either if you're playing it or you're receptive, as an audience.

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

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

Image
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.

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.

Image
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'm not interested in turning anybody on to anybody that I'm turned on to... if people want to find things, they find them themselves.
Jimmy Page
Image
The term genius gets used far too loosely in rock & roll.
Jimmy Page
Image
My finger picking is sort of a cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence.
Jimmy Page
Image
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.
Jimmy Page
Image
I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.
Jimmy Page
Image
Actually, I'm getting one made up with eight necks and I'm going to get a wheelwright to make a big rim around it and then I can do cartwheels off the stage.

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