Not a bad performance at all. I guess I remembered this version Stairway being more shitty than it really was. Those who made it to the stadium said that it actually sounded amazingly.
Jimmy is my guitar heroe but this solo sucks, and thats because hes intoxicated, Plant was fine, meanwhile Led Zeppelin is wonderful, even at this moments..

but why they stop if they were so good -n they do have some great songs - but i fel they let down the fans -not like THE STONES STILL KICKING ASS LIVE IF U SEEN THEM
Ok lets set things straight. Live Aid might have not been the best Zep performance but id still take them over any other band, Page was drunk not high on Heroin (he quit in 1983) and im sure this would have sounded better live the weakest link here definetely was Phil but thats what happens from lack of rehersal, buttom line Led Zeppelin owns anyday
im not expressing a reflection on any of the artists on the stage but this version is a complete train wreack and jimmy is clearly too drunk to be on stage.
I suppose you're better than Jimmy Page. Page is in the top five of all-time great guitar players: Hendrix, Eddie Van Halen, Pete Townsend, Chuck Berry.
dont even compare page to eddie.. eddie wouldnt be eddie without the influence of page .. heartbreaker solo was a huge influence on his technique and many other things.. pagey was the best
I remember waiting for this in 1985 and feeling so let down by Jimmy Page. Well I've just watched it again and yes Jimmy's solo was crap but the rest of the band weren't great either. Still the anti climax of live aid.
Actually the problem here with this performance and some others was that the sound system wasn't set up right. Dylan said it was set up behind the curtain giving the sound a mediocre sound.
Jimmy Page said the fault of why this concert was bad, was because of the drummers, well personally, many parts of his solo suck big time. I think he doesn't have to be so arrogant.
Also, I think Plants' voice is mediocre on this performance.
pages solo definitely wasn't his best but phil collins is fucking garbage. he can't keep time properly, he keeps coming in too early, or fucking up fills.
He said "And she's buying a stairway to HELL" in the final line or it's just me going crazy?

I'm trying to decipher my secret message to see if there was any mention of a comparison between Jimmy Page and Eddie VH. I don't see any.
2ndINFsoldier 3 years ago
page is THIRDS greatest. placing him at 5 is blasphemy. behind only hendrix and clapton
JIMMYJIBLETS 3 years ago
That list was in random order. But I would put Page at number 2, just slightly behind Jimi.
