  • Esteemed rock critic John Doran meets Jimmy Page in the second part of Noisey's The British Masters, a series where John interviews the most influential and colourful figures from British popular music history.
    This time round he chats with the founder of Led Zeppelin: a band long regarded as one of the greatest British musical exports of the 1970s, who released a tetralogy of self-titled albums that changed British rock forever. Page has been awarded an OBE, met President Obama and performed at the Olympics and Live Aid.
    The final Led Zeppelin remastered albums Presence, In Through The Out Door and Coda are out now with deluxe versions containing unheard material.

No way Page just said, "Hi," there's a little silence and then Doran goes, "So, when John Bonham died ..." lol.

    I count myself so fortunate to see the band in May 1973 at the height of their powers. The site was a hockey arena but we were 2 rows back from the stage so the opportunity is still appreciated, and having only recent seen my first Jeff Beck show around that time I got to see the guitar gods of my age from a few feet away. Page was a dazzling artist back then and his guitar playing was truly over our heads. We got to see them right around the time that Houses of the Holy was released. A vivid and lasting memory.

    There are many better guitarists yes, but Jimmy was by FAR the greatest rock composer/guitarist of all time. The musical landscapes he painted were so far beyond anything others were doing throughout the entire decade of the 70's. Somehow Jimmy was able to create something unique, fresh and rocking as hell on pretty much all of their studio albums one after another. His music never got boring and probably why still to this day Zeppelin has so many loyal fans. You can't really point to any one song Jimmy wrote and say "This is Zeppelin's sound..." Zeppelin sounded so much more diverse and experimental and covered new ground constantly.

    • @J8D2

      phil hems the bassist who went on tour with Plant and Page was Plants son-in-law.....a very good bass player as well as other instruments. Blood is thicker than water I suppose. Also keep in mind that Plant and Page had a much stronger bond than they did with Jones. jones was an integral part of the band on stage, but off stage he sort of went his own way , from what I’ve read. So their wasn’t the emotional bond that there was between Plant and Page....who truly enjoyed sharing a stage together. And since this was in no way a “Zeppelin reunion”, they did not feel compelled to include him.

    Jimmy without Bonham is like 50 per cent less. If you have seen videos and heard bootlegs, you know the chemistry I am talking about. Reminds me of the Prince quote, ‘Page could not carry a rhythm without Bonham.’ Overstatement, but has flashes of truth. Page knows that the levels he reached with Bonham could not be replicated and he will always be unfavourably compared to the 70s him. It’s the reason he has rarely performed live since the Zep breakup apart from the 94 and 07 reunions, while his contemporaries like Beck have performed extensively.

    I always find it telling that Page only made one solo album, then disappeared into doing cameos.
    Also, +1 to the whole "why is this interviewer so wasted he can't come out with the right years for his research on any actual enthusiasm in his voice" as well as "sound mastering, lEARN IT!"
