More quotes by Jimmy Page
I have a voracious appetite for all things, worldly and unworldly.
Jimmy Page
I'm still searching for an angel with a broken wing. It's not very easy to find them these days.
Jimmy Page
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.
Jimmy Page
If you're working at the factory and you're cursing every day that you get up, at all costs get out of it. You'll just make yourself ill.
Jimmy Page
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 speciļ¬c moment is what drives it.
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
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.
Jimmy Page
Every musician wants to do something which will hold up for a long time, and I guess we did it with 'Stairway to Heaven.'
Jimmy Page
The element of change has been the thing, really. We put out the first one, then the second... then a third LP totally different from them. It's the reason we were able to keep it together.
Jimmy Page
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.
Jimmy Page
My finger picking is sort of a cross between Pete Seeger, Earl Scruggs, and total incompetence.
Jimmy Page
This week, I'm a gypsy. Maybe next week it'll be glitter rock.
Jimmy Page
You can't buy time. Everything, for me, seems to be a race against time. Especially musically.
Jimmy Page
Artists say that paintings are never done. I sort of feel the same way about music. I would never say something is perfect. There are performances that can generate a lot of emotion in me when I hear them, but I can't say if anything is perfect.
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
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
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
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.
Jimmy Page
My favorite guitar solo of all time was Elliot Randall's on `Reelin' In The Years'.
Jimmy Page
The idea of a hypnotic riff as the prime mover of a piece of music has been around for a long time, whether you're talking about the Delta blues or music from Middle Eastern and African cultures.
