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.

Domesticity and all that isn't really for me.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

Crowley didn't have a very high opinion of women, and I don't think he was wrong.

I don't feel I have to top myself at all.

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

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

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 can listen to all different sorts of music. I don't really care about The Next Big Thing.

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.
