I’ve given this a bit of thought over the years—maybe too much thought. I never had the chance to see them play live unfortunately. I have seen Page and Plant perform together live, but it isn’t the same. Led Zep was Jimmy Page’s band. You can’t talk about many other guitarists in the same sentence as Page—Hendrix, Clapton, Robert Johnson—that’s about where the conversation begins and ends for me. This clip (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcSpIOTtWpk) shot on 8 millimeter film in LA in 1975 probably comes the closest to what it was like to see Page and company in concert in their day. ** Feedback ------------------------------------------------------------ I always welcome and benefit from your feedback.
