The little-known song that changed the 1960s for Jimmy Page: “That’s wild! That’s serious!”
Turning counterculture inside out.
Led Zeppelin
The 1970 Led Zeppelin song Robert Plant struggled to sing: “A hell of a challenge”
“The full open-throated falsetto.”
Five times support bands destroyed the headliner: “We gotta follow these guys?”
“We blew everybody off the stage”.
The 1970s legend Phil Collins was never able to please: “It doesn’t go like that”
Not treated like an equal.
The band that Jimmy Page couldn’t stand being compared to: “It really pissed me off”
Not the guitarist they thought he was.
The 1979 song Robert Plant couldn’t stand returning to: “I rue it so much now”
Getting the wrong kind of sound.
The 1975 Led Zeppelin song Jimmy Page still can’t believe: “The power in that song”
“I really was on fire there.”
