      I'm almost 60 now. I read comments about Jimmy's sloppy solo. I just think he just has a hard time with live solos, he always has. He's a studio genius. Take that as it may. I'm happy:-)

      You're right, plus I'm 62. According to Page during many interviews, he said that he spent more time than any other member did, since he produced, I think all their albums in the studio. I do know from what he;s said, that he liked to play everything exactly the way they did in the studio but honestly, I believe that it can be hard to remember every little thing done when it was originally produced. Just listen to a lot of their albums, Page pays sometimes 3-4 guitar tracks. 4 were played for this song. This I'll give him, he did a pretty good job during their concert days. What I liked was watching "Celebration Day". Led Zeppelin sounded as good as they did in the early 70's & Jason Bonham was a great choice as a drummer. I'm sure that they wanted him as much as he wanted to be with them for that historic concert. I was hoping 2017 [from what Page said on a talk show] would have been a concert year here in the states but I believe that Robert Plant may have had a hard time keeping his part of the band, if they were to play 25 or 30 venues. Just like Roger Daltrey, being the front man in a band when you're over 70 years old is hard. But like The Who, whom I really like as well, I'm sure that Robert Plant would find it very hard to sing that much. I guess as a Led Zeppelin fan, I'll have to just buy the Celebration Day DVD if I want to hear anything from Zeppelin from the past 10 years. To finish, Jimmy Page does want to do concerts, it's Plant & maybe Jones who might be the ones who want to keep doing their own things & just enjoy life. Oh & that 300 million, or 800 million offered to Robert Plant, Page himself said that he never heard of that being offered to anyone at any time. Ok, I can't think of anything else to say & I usually have a lot to say, lol....

According to your comments, ANYTHING they played, be it off key, completely fucked up, absolutely horrible, hell, if he forgot the words, you would still say "it was incredible, so artistic". Cmon. They sound like shit in this video. I'm a huge Zeppelin fan and definitely believe that they are wayyyyy more popular than RUSH. I wasn't comparing bands popularity or who is bigger or better. I was comparing live playing styles and beliefs. The fact that RUSH tried to play as close to the studio recording as possible because they believed that is the best a song can be played, is awesome. I think every artist would in fact agree, that the studio recording is probably the best the song can be. They spend days, weeks, sometimes longer, in the studio to achieve the best sound they can. I've listened to RUSH songs and live recordings that sound like shit. In fact, at their induction at the RRHOF, they did not sound great. I'd be the first to admit it. So I'm not "picking on Zeppelin". But I don't believe they sounded good here at all.

      @mwhite6522 Рік тому +5

      Let's be honest, it's very, very sloppy playing, and I say that knowing I fully enjoy his playing for what it is. His picking is mostly where the "slop" comes from. He sort of just brushes his right hand over the string as fast as he can and hopes his left hand can keep up with it. He also seems to use very, very light strings, probably .009s or maybe even .008s, whereas a jazz guitarist would use .012 or .013s. This helps to keep hands from tiring and to create the illusion of speed without accuracy.
      I think what you can credit Page for is inventing about 25% of the standard rock guitar vocabulary - something no one else has done, except perhaps maybe Hendrix. He also has a great tone -- that weird, slightly out of phase sound with the toggle switch in the middle, with a very close slapback delay, that is his signature sound. My actual favorite thing about Page is his tone, and his attack. It just has balls. His time is all over the place, but that's part of his charm. He also has a very nice vibrato -- something very few rock players have. My early teacher emphasized developing a good vibrato because it's important and gives your playing personality.
      He makes a TON of mistakes, and too often falls back on his stock licks. But a lot of times, he has great ideas, and he tries to play them. I also give him a lot of credit for always improvising solos and not just coming up with some nice solo and playing it the same way every night. His mistakes are nothing. His passion for playing is not equalled by many.

  • @Liriodendron-Ocean
    @Liriodendron-Ocean  11 років тому +87

    I think part of what makes Page so great is that he just went for it, forget playing it safe and laying out the studio version, he played it different every night, stretched the limits and all on the fly, it was all decided in the magic of that very moment. It's like what Pearl Jam does with their set-list, Zeppelin did within each song, vary and change......sometimes makes for "interesting" to put it a nice way music but most of the time makes for an incredible musical experience!!

      His 'sloppiness' is intentional. Their songs were not your average 3 piece stuff (see Cream for example). To produce the music live they had 10 strings (bass and guitar) and drums. He textualists his live lead playing to bring some dynamics and depth to it.
      I play lead guitar in a working band and I can tell you that it is a difficult thing to give most solos any life with only the bass behind you. The most important aspect to a solo sounding great is not how fast or technical you are but the chords someone else is playing behind your solo. In this song there is bass and no chords. See his solos when JPJ is playing keys behind them. The chords make the solos come alive.

    You guys just have to understand Page's approach to the guitar. He definitely knows what he's doing and his "sloppiness" is part of his own signature sound.

    • @agm6848
      @agm6848 8 років тому +2

      +Justin Cheeks Yes, but it is not deliberate "sloppiness" where he could have done a lot better if he had wanted to. As much as I love Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page has never really been a technical player. Take a look at Jeff Beck's recent performances at Ronnie Scott's - that is pure technical brillance, able to compete with some of the best players of today.

    • @joekarmazyn2825
      @joekarmazyn2825 8 років тому +29

      +agm Whether or not his playing is deliberately sloppy is subjective, I for one believe that Jimmy loves to make little points and create moods through his playing. As for Jeff Beck's playing, it is his technical brilliance that truly made him shine. Jimmy Page's brilliance is reflected through his ingenious songwriting abilities and his ability to leave the music up to chance while on stage. Page's sound, stylistically, is instantly recognizable. He did indeed wield the hammer of the gods: his own true, personal tone.

    • @wild7279
      @wild7279 8 років тому +8

      +agm its not important whether he is technically brilliant e All of Led Zeppelins legacy is played time and again year after year.
      So its not important whether Page meets your fascistic approach to music a guitar is a canvas each man free to paint what ever fucking picture he wants to. Technical brilliance is for engineering music is about expression you and your kind I hope will never quieten peoples mode of expression.
      years from now people will still be getting turned on and inspired by his music while your comments fade into the annals.

      +Justin Cheeks As someone who has seen Led Zeppelin live in 75 and 77, I can tell you that the performances were all amazing. It really didn't come across as sloppy when you could hear all the instruments together along with the audio effects like echo and reverb. The problem is that their live stuff never transferred well to audio. They would be the first ones to admit it.

    My favourite part of the song is how Jonesy and Bono just joust and caress the notes one after another. This to me is part of the genius of Jonesy...so often underappreciated as attention is usually on Plant or Page, but ask many bass guitarists or drummers and what he offers is brought up time and again. Amazing...
    Ramble is another Bono and Jonesy masterpiece.

      Totally agree with you. This things, make the difference between a man with emotions and and android-guitarrist. The fact of playing each solo or each song in a different way is the musician´s opportunity to show his feelings with his instrument which is, for me, the point of making art. It doesn´t matter a little mistake or if the solo wasn´t as good as in the album or in the 1977´s show, he´s expressing himself with the guitar, and it will be different from one show to another.
      Most people don´t understand that.

      If you want to have your mind blown. Check out the 1970 Royal Albert Hall show. They’re young and coming off of Led Zeppelin II coming out. Page in particular, in his argyle sweater is on fire. Bonham is unstoppable and JPJ is the glue there playing or doing whatever is necessary on any given song.
      The band is absolutely blowing the doors off the building.
