I am as much to blame as the next guy, but I just realized that of all the "in the style of" lessons we don't have a Jimmy Page lesson. This should be fixed ASAP, and if I was good enough I would do it but since I suck I'll leave it up to one of our instuctors. This is a very serious issue, we don't want to upset the rock gods and put a jinx on the whole thing! ;-) ALL HAIL LED ZEPPLIN!!

My two cents.

It's all in timeframe. For the era, he was great. Just a different style. To be quite honest, I liked LZ, but they were never my favorite from that era. Page is famous for playing his guitar with a cello bow, as on the songs "Dazed and Confused", "How Many More Times", "Kashmir", and in the interlude of "In the Evening". How different is that, I would say that's a matter of style.

He did recruit JB, and RP back when the band was called the Yardbirds. If I'm not mistaken, JPJ actually contacted him to join the band.

So yes, IMO, I would consider him great! biggrin.gif

No worries Muris, that's a good thing. Makes people think biggrin.gif
Of course I disagree with you though.

If you are saying that it's the solos that defines a guitarist then in my opinion you are wrong. Listening to solos that's not really part of the song (showing off) is just as exciting as looking at how excellent someone can handle a toothbrush.

One of the things that make Page great is that he does the job, he completes Zeppelin and makes it what it is. He's not overdoing it (well, except for some far out solo's, which where exactly right at the time). Just like Gilmour it's exactly the right amount of noise or silence at exactly the right time. Lot's of variations when he repeats a riff or a verse.
In Zeppelin he played this way because that was the right way. In Yardbirds the sound was completly different, and the right thing there. In my opinion Page where outstanding from all the guitarists at the same time.

Of course I didn't say that!!!
I sad his solo playing isn't that unique for my taste and view,
like per example Knopfler,Jeff Beck,Blackmore,Hendrix etc ,
these guys have their own VEERY powerful trademark,
even today which is quite amazing,you try to copy them a bit and it'd be sooo obvious.
I putted more light on his solo parts cause most the In Style Lessons here are solo stuff,correct me if I'm wrong.
And finally,we are ALL aware of the fact that soloing is just a small piece of being guitarist,musician generally.
Composing,innovations,generation leader, I would say those are major parts of Page's greatness! smile.gif
