Jimmy Page - Electronic Press Kit 1988 (Outrider) 

Roberta Colarette ROBERTA HONEY REAL TALENTED PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE TO BE A NARCISSISTIC ASS LIKE NO TALENT KANYE WEST OR JUSTIN BIEBER BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE REAL TALENT THE TALENT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REMIND PEOPLE LIKE THIS NO TALENT TRASH YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE TODAY 😚

Humility is everything

Yes and (prior to "Outrider") his work with The Honeydrippers project, The Firm and his Death Wish II soundtrack, and other album appearances were more of the same - just an extension of himself and what he wanted to do..."ever onward" as Pagey likes to say. 👍

I love that too... he’s a musical genius

In about 1976, a forgotten rock reporter ask if the band was on verge of breaking up. Jimmy got to the point quickly and said, "It would be a criminal act to break up this group". I'm just about 99.9% sure I read it from CIRCUS rock magazine, for l never really cared for Rolling Stone. For Rolling Stone delves off into to politics, etc., he'll a teenager can't vote. So that's why I read CIRCUS, they stuck strictly to rock groups, their touring, record reviews and such.

Couldn't have said it better

Led is the best band of all I have known, Jimmy Page was my best teacher of guitar, but in eyes and ears of everyone, the group was in frank decay, in the descendant, in the last years, the 2 or 3 last albuns were not good if we think they had produced some years ago something like the Led Zeppelin II, III and IV.

well said

@@codonauta I disagree, Presence is incredible.

I agree with you 100% it contains several of their best songs. My favorite and I like all of them.

Amen to that

He was breaking out that violin bow way back in The Yardbirds in the 60s!!! He’s been untouchable for decades!!

@@jenyj89 No doubt, and his early bow work was outstanding, but, the MSG performance made him untouchable. Even Jimmy would say concerning using the bow, " With the bow, some nights in off, some nights its on, and some nights its just pure magic"

That’s not all that’s under his belt

me too........

Yessss

Can talk me to sleep anytime.

Wow you’re easily moved huh?

Oh yeahhhhhh....he's so adorable ❤❤

Practice Open tunings

Some guy on RU-vid was walking by Page's house and suddenly Jimmy appears out of nowhere and starts talking to the guy for ten or fifteen minutes. Celebrities are meaningless to me, but I know damn well, all my teenage memories would have flooded my senses and my adoration would have made me shit my pants.

@@toncuz8291 hahaha right on brother there aren’t many celebrities that I wouldn’t care to see but Jimmy Page is first on my list . I would love to meet him and Keanu Reeves. I think if I met either of them I wouldn’t know what to say to them I would be dumb founded 😆

Better than one Plant album, anyway.

the unledded album was crap a step backwards for page

Same here, I don't care what the naysayers think. Never get tired of listening to it. We need new material from Page NOW! C'MON JIMMY! 🤔

I was never aware of how bad his drug use was. Naive indeed. Have read bits in comments made on various channels. I noticed him rubbing his nose s lot and hoping that is a nervous habit or allergies. Am saddened that if there were demons he was trying to escape through whichever drug of choice or his naitivity to try it in the first place. He's brilliant and heard it ruined many a concert. Heart broken indeed..

@@user-eh8eg4hp5t I was lucky enough to see Led Zeppelin in the early days 72 and 73, when they were at their very best! So, my fellow Zep heads and I were very upset to see him so stoned and abusing cocaine, herion plus whisky! He was trying to find a way to be able to do it all, the producing, the music, everything. Sadly when Bonzo passed it nearly killed Jimmy as well. I often wonder what would have happened if Bonzo had lived? Jimmy may have died...or they could have made more wonderful music. We'll never know. Sorry for the rambling. I am so glad Jimmy is still with us and he is the greatest ❤

@@elainemclaughlin9417 not rambling to me. Thank you for the insight. I am a fan of Zep but never knew any inside stories. Just remember an interview with Robert where he said that it was sad that Jimmy did not take better care of himself. Had heard Robert was drunk for many performances so wasn't quite sure what Jimmy was into that made Robert say that about him. I saw an interview of a 16 yr. old Jimmy and he was so self assured, although he wanted to be a research scientist at that time, and then to hear about him losing himself. Thanks again Elaine! Happy New Year!

@@user-eh8eg4hp5t It was sad, thankfully Jimmy is doing so well now. He looks well at 77! And Happy New Year to you as well 😊

@@user-eh8eg4hp5t He was not af effect of cocaine in this interview. Talking calm and shy this way? No! Cocaine users are boring, agitated, talks too much, and don’t stop talking if you don’t say to him to do this. Scratching the nose some times doesn’t mean you mandatory used cocaine that day. If he used to consume that other day, I don’t way, but here he was clean.

the best book on zep i would say

Seriously?!?!? Eric didn’t have anything to do with Jimmy, so would have had no access to Jimmy’s guitars, but more importantly, Eric reached out to Jimmy to help him with this benefit. Jimmy was in terrible shape around this time and Eric, along with Jeff Beck wanted to get Jimmy playing again. It was thrilling to see them all 3 playing together, although at that time Jimmy’s playing wasn’t up to par. The London ARMs show was fantastic and Jimmy’s reception made me teary eyed. I really do wish Jimmy would put out a new album of material while we still have him with us, there’s no one else that does it quite like him. I apologize in advance if your statement was a joke btw lol

@@vanshipman I agree with everything you wrote. I saw a clip from that concert. Eric Clapton, and Jeff Beck were so great to Jimmy.

You jumped to it really quick didn't you? If you watched the concert you may have notice jimmy's ghostly physic, 83 was the last years of heroin abuse for him and 2 years before he fully kicked cocain. Eric and Jeff were trying to help Jimmy the way Pete Townshend helped Eric, he was in obviously the worst shape of his life and his performance that day proved my point. That "eyes" you were talking about is a professional guitarist couldn't believe that his once earth shattering colleague just couldn't seem to notice how out of tune his double neck guitar was, and just sloppy... everything. My God, people are just full of shit!

And didn't you watch the interview? He didn't exactly lost his Les Paul. I think you mixed it up with the Les Paul Black Beauty that was stolen in 1970 not long after the RAH concert (Jimmy got it back quite recently, not sure how).

@@kyluu9731 Jimmy never loses his guitars as they go missing from his studio. Eric C is known as a notorious guitar thief that is particularly fond ,aka, jealous of anything Jimmy owns, including all his guitars and sound equipment/studio, all of his music, his hair, his accent, and all of the excess attention he receives from all women, and well known record corp labels, up to and including, Swan Song, Jimmy and Bobby's private owned record label, in which Eric C sued for all rights and access to, at any and all times of the day and night, also located in Jimmy and Bobby's house. Eric C won the entire law suit, until Ritchie Blackmore sued to get Rainbow back from Jon L, Roger G, and Ian P, via offering to disclose the names, addresses, times, and dates of several public officials involved in the theft of Jimmy's recording studio, on the very same court room and date. Right after Eric C won his suit against Jimmy, Eric C withdrew his suit, and all false allegations and charges against Jimmy were dropped! Jimmy has the same problem with Jeff Beck and his sticky fingers, as well. But what Jeff B, Eric C are not aware of is that Jimmy and Bobby special hidden cameras throughout the studio and entire house, special cameras that cannot be detected by 'visitors' in time, until they look back at house to remember something chased them out of. Although they could not see them, they felt their presence, air, and heard their extremely angered growls. Many predators are scared to death of kitty cat eyes!

Sa- Jealous!

I think the longer nails are only on his right strumming hand. A lot of guitar players have that.

@@robertacolarette1594 I've noticed a long thumb nail on his left hand, used on the neck of the guitar. Sorry, I'm not familiar with guitar playing technique. I do love guitar music! And Jimmy is the best!!

@@elainemclaughlin9417 He is that. Yes, you’re right. He does have a longer thumbnail on his left hand. Not sure what the reason for that would be. Only Jimmy knows. Whatever he wants to do is fine with me.

We all have our little tics don’t we..🤷‍♀️

Nervous habit

James C. Williams Jimmy did not invent the fuzz box. He had one made for him, but it was already in existence.

Dave Davis of The Kinks I believe

@@davidrichardson7348Dave didn’t use a fuzz box, he took a razor blade to one of his speakers to get his distorted sound.

Aaron-Jealous!

@@rosekittygraykittyjackkitt9676 aaron-jealous?

I agree. They have curly black hair and they're very ethereal and pretty. Their facial features are similar.

I’m glad he doesn’t. Different generation I’m sure.

Jimmy is a legend and most of those others with tattoos are nondiscript talentless posers in comparison

Because cool people don’t need em. People that want others to think they’re cool have drawings on themselves.

Ricca Shaps Totally agree. Jason is very good , love him. But there will never be another John Bonham!

I agree. He can play Zeppelin songs but his style is completely different.

What I thought!!!

I just noticed, he kind of does!

Not helped by his characterising of the O2 concert as fair to middling (paraphrasing, but to that effect)

True. Because Mick Wall is an arsehole.

@@AnthonyP73 What Happened??

Definitely! Cannot sit still and can't keep his fingers off his nose or upper lip.

Not on coke. here. Not even close. Obviously you haven't been around it much. That nervous nose touching shit he has always had.

@@jojo-fu4xh True. At this time he was clean . I imagine the movements are just habits and nerves.

@@jojo-fu4xh He Has A Cute Nose 😁

To go to Pacific...... ........... ............. ...................

lol

@@CooManTunes 🤣🤣🤣🤣

For creative control. He never wanted singles released. Atlantic always wanted a single from any new album. Page & Plant disagreed with Atlantic on that.

I agree it was lousy. Walking into Clarksdale that he did with Plant was even worse.

@@oreldm I prefer Walking into Clarksdale.

The curse of king midas... he hasn't written anything good since 1976.

Must have listened to the other "Outrider" then. 😆

@@delphinbringsby6768 Cause U'd know would U ? Got a few albums out have ya mate ? Never heard of u

Just one of those quirks that Jimmy has, I think.

Alicia Henderso

It's his (nervous?) habit. 😏

coke..

@Kenny I agree, and maybe nervous too?

Ridiculously idiotic comment.

Done ten years that won’t take a fuckin 🕺 job for them so it must blatantly obvious that never going to again

It's because it is Chris Farlowe who is attracted to Jimmy, and para-siting off of as so many have.

William Henderson that’s says more about you.

Hes high af bruh

@@noname.___ I'm pretty sure he was clean by this time. I think it's just nerves. He's still that way. He's a very shy person too.
