It Might Get Loud "Three Rock Legends" (Jimmy Page, Jack White, The Edge)

It Might Get Loud is the title of a 2008 documentary by filmmaker Davis Guggenheim.One of the most dynamic gatherings in music history takes place in the new film IT MIGHT GET LOUD when legends Jimmy Page, The Edge and Jack White come together to play, compare notes and talk about music and their mutual love of the electric guitar. Directed by Davis Guggenheim and conceived by producer Thomas Tull, the film, through the words and music of three generations of musicians, celebrates the love affair these men and countless others have with the electric guitar, perhaps the most innovative and challenging instrument ever created.
IT MIGHT GET LOUD isnt like any other rockn roll documentary. Filmed through the eyes of three virtuosos from three different generations, audiences get up close and personal, discovering how a furniture upholsterer from Detroit, a studio musician and a painter from London and a seventeen-year-old Dublin schoolboy, each used the electric guitar to develop their unique sound and rise to the pantheon of superstar. Rare discussions are provoked as we travel with Jimmy Page, The Edge and Jack White to influential locations of their pasts. Born from the experience is intimate access to the creative genesis of each legend, such as Link Wrays Rumbles searing impression upon Jimmy Page, who surprises audiences with an impromptu air guitar performance. But thats only the beginning.

While each guitarist describes his own musical rebellion, a rockn roll summit is being arranged. Set on an empty soundstage, the musicians come together, crank up the amps and play. They also share their influences, swap stories, and teach each other songs. During the summit Pages double-neck guitar, The Edges array of effects pedals and Whites new mic, custom build into his guitar, go live. The musical journey is joined by visual grandeur too. We see the stone halls of Headley Grange where Stairway to Heaven was composed, visit a haunting Tennessee farmhouse where Jack White writes a song on-camera, and eavesdrop inside the dimly lit Dublin studio where The Edge lays down initial guitar tracks for U2s forthcoming single. The images, like the stories, will linger in the mind long after the reverb fades.

IT MIGHT GET LOUD might not affect how you play guitar, but it will change how you listen. The film is directed and produced by An Inconvenient Truths Davis Guggenheim, and produced by Thomas Tull, Lesley Chilcott and Peter Afterman.

cmon guys,jack white is a very good and unique guitar player.his style is different then the most other guitar players.he plays it dirty and raw.saying that his music is bad is a matter of taste but saying that he is not a superb guitar player is just silly

[TILLVAIO]

i love jimmy page, i respect the edge, but jack owned it

[thehobbit1116]

To quote Phil X. You gotta give the man respect.

Jack White is so overrated, he's O.K. but not in the same class as Edge and Jimmy Page. He's a rookie by comparison and a very good mimic.

[Raul Sedano Cárdenas]

Lo que nadie puede negar es que la leyenda es Jimmy Page...

[3434arc1]

I love White, like The Edge, but Jimmy Page is in a class by himself.

[MyRockmetal]

You can tell that the interviewer has no fucking idea who the people from the movie are

[fred flintstone]

Well thats just your opinion.... But fact he was chosen by other professional guitarist's over many guitarist's prove's he is A Master along side Jimmy Page. The Embarressment he is not.

[stuart owens]

Jimmy Page... THE MASTER

Jack White.... The Student

The Edge...The Embarressment

[MizQue]

You can't compare almost any other guitar player on the planet with Jimmy. He breathes rarefied air.
