  If you are the creative force behind THE greatest band ever formed , and you were the creator of THE greatest riffs ever recorded , and you are still passionate about it all and can elaborate and explain your process to us normal humans , you are an undeniable legend in my opinion , Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin have been part of my life for over 35 years and I've listened to them everyday , and I can only thank them for making my life more enjoyable 👏👏👏👏👏

  Jimmy Page is as passionate about music now at 73 as he was when he first picked up the guitar, that is love.

  Can we just thank heavens that there is a technology that can bring into our living rooms for free an interview like this? I for one will never stop being grateful.

  What a guy.  What a life.  What a body of work. What a legacy. A legend.

  A girl I grew up with went to the same grammar school as Jimmy. I went to a nearby grammar and used to see him pushing his bike along the pavement after school, surrounded by a bevy of girls. I asked her who the guy was, she thought for a moment then said, "Oh, you mean Jimmy! Everybody loves Jimmy!" I can see why. Good Bloke !!!  👍😉 Geoff Nelson Hill, author/poet, London, UK.

  By listening to his speeches you can clearly understand why he achieved what he achieved: passion, dedication, talent, humbleness above all

  The quintessential English gentleman who just happens to be the world's greatest guitar player, in the best band ever.

  It's clear that Jimmy Page is a thinking man's musician. His success and the success of Led Zeppelin was no accident. He had a vision for his career and the drive to pursue it. He surrounded himself with the best support team and proceeded to make it happen. I admire him for this as well as for his incredible artistry.

  I actually met him and had quite a long chat with him several years ago in a hotel in Spain. I was in awe - and he was so down-to-earth and amenable, a really natural guy. One of the most memorable moments of my life - he even autographed my Fender Strat. And no, Jimmy, I have not sold nor will ever sell that guitar.

  Page should publish an audio book reminiscing about each album and track.
