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!!

I'm a bit surprised that some people don't think he had great leads, everyone is entitled to their opinion though for sure smile.gif

If you have not checked out a lot of his stuff, check out his live playing on the song remains the same live, specifically the No Quarter and Dazed and Confused solos, they are breathtaking and not just a mindless flurry of notes.

Granted a lot of his leads were were pentatonic based, some of his other songs, such as his acoustic pieces and songs like the Rain Song, are just pure magic IMO, so far outside the realm of typical sounding music at the time.

And once more I've been misunderstood smile.gif
Page's leads ARE great,I wasn't talking of greatness(you define it) but of uniqueness,a special stamp.
Many players have great and powerful leads but without major personality imho.

Muris, you are wrong! laugh.gif
Imitate a guy in big numbers and over time, his playing goes from being unique to being mainstream. wink.gif

Page took a new view of rhythm guitar and thus made tons of cool riffs and rhythms. However his soloing is pretty much just basic pentatonic licks, nothing special really.

You are dead wrong here! smile.gif
First: basic pentatonic licks did not exsist back then - they became basic after Page played them first. tongue.gif
Second: Page is known for using Celtic and melodic minor a lot, including classical modal stuff and more exotic scales.
Third: Blues really is based around the pentatonic. Page grew rock from the Blues, remember?

If it weren't for Page we wouldn't have Slash thirty years later.. smile.gif

Start by playing something - a bend, a riff, a scale, a song - very slowly; if you make a mistake, start over; do this over and over, until you can play it flawlessly - and I do mean flawlessly - many times in a row. Next, gradually increase the tempo. Eventually you'll be flailing like a madman.
