Just in case you were getting worried about the possibility of the guy from Alter Bridge fronting something called Led Zeppelin next year, a rep for Zep guitarist Jimmy Page has told Rolling Stone that if Robert Plant doesn't hit the road with the band next year, a name change will be in order: "Whatever this is, it is not Led Zeppelin... Not without the involvement of Robert Plant." Whether or no
In this lesson we're going to be going over a really simple and yet amazing sounding blues/rock lick, that Jimmy Page himself used quite a bit. In fact it was by listening to Led Zepplin that I learned this riff. He has used it on several recordings, but it is at the halfway point of Good Times, Bad Times where it really stands out.
I have heard Zakk Wylde use this same riff, or a variation of
I imagine there are a few starving students who feel slighted to see their dream degree handed to a rock star. After they’ve spent eight years of their youth laboring over research and dissertations, they should have just partied like they wanted to, found some way to get famous, then waited thirty years
James Patrick Page angol gitáros 1944. január 9-én Londonban született. 1966-tól 68-ig a Yardbirds együttesben pengetett, abban a zenekarban, ahol Eric Clapton és Jeff Beck is megfordultak.A nevét azonban valószínűleg nem e korszaka miatt fogják márványba vésni, hanem azért mert egyik alapító tagja volt az 1968 szeptemberében megalakult Led Zeppelin nevű bandának.Mivel a Led lemezeiről külön szeretnék megemlékezni, most az 1988-ban készült Outrider című albumát ajánlom meghallgatásra.A lemez felvételein Robert Plant, a Zepkó énekese és Chris Farlowe is énekelnek.Tömörítés/Bitrate: 192 kb/sLetöltés/Download:[ Uploaded ][ Fast-load ]Jelszó/Password: levente

Take a look at that junk, ATOMIC fans. Ouch!
I'd be like, *&@#$*(@#$*(&!
So the Led Zeppelin Reuinion Show that was supposed to go down on the 10th of this month is being postponed until December.
It's a good thing Jimmy Page is a right handed guitarists or he wouldn't be coming back for a while. It would probably take physical therapy for any finger that's used on the fretboard.
Rolling Stone makes a good point in their Zep news blurb:
"...we’ve waited twenty-seven years for this show, so what’s another fourteen days? That is, of course, unless you already bought plane tickets and made hotel reservations."
Man I feel sorry for those of you who have bought plane tickets and made reservations.
Hey, you could be like the Rolling Stones' fans and try to sue Led Zeppelin for canceling their show. Joking of course... What a bunch of losers.

Jimmy Page e Robert Plant mudaram a face do rock'n'roll como os co-fundadores do Led Zeppelin. O grupo maciçamente influenciador, desfez-se em 1980, seguindo-se logo após, a morte do baterista John Bonham. Page & Plant seguiram carreiras solo até reunirem-se em 1994, para um popular Unplugged na MTV. Essa histórica sessão foi para estúdio e veio a ser um album chamado No

Page's past experiences both in the studio and with the Yardbirds were very influential in contributing to the success of Led Zeppelin in the 1970s. As a producer, composer, and guitarist for the band, he was one of the major driving forces behind the rock sound of that era, with his trademark Gibson Les Paul guitar and Marshall amplification. In the studio however, Page often used a Supro amplifier and a Telecaster guitar. His use of the Roger Mayer-designed ToneBender fuzzbox ("How Many More Times"), slide guitar ("You Shook Me", "Dancing Days", "In My Time of Dying"), pedal steel guitar ("Your Time Is Gonna Come", "Tangerine", "That's The Way" and for effect at the very end of "Over the Hills and Far Away"), acoustic guitar ("Gallows Pole", "Ramble On") and recording techniques made Led Zeppelin a prototype for many future rock bands. His landmark guitar solo from the song "Heartbreaker" has been credited by Eddie Van Halen as the inspiration for his trademark two-hand tapping tec
Will there ever be another Jimmy Page? Has there ever been a guitar solo like Jimmy Page Stairway To Heaven?I doubt it...enjoy the video, this is by far my favorite and one of the best guitar solos ever.

The neck has been shaved to be like the '58s neck. The bridge was rounded, so he can play any string with the bow (and not only the E's). Two spring-loaded switches have been added under the plate (one for in and out phase control and one to put the pickups in series/parallel). The knobs have been replaced by push-pulls for coil tapping, or to
