Jimmy Page’s manager is talking about the on-going investigation into the Led Zeppelin vaults, and the uncovering of some never-before-heard-by-the-public material to release. According to ultimateclassicrock.com, even though Peter Mensch says that a reunion of the band is not likely, “honestly, my gut tells me they won’t (perform again)”, he does reveal that Jimmy Page [...]

Reddit's 'Ask Me Anything' interviews (AMAs for short) have become something of a rite of passage for public figures -- not to mention a fascinating forum for sharing interesting and/or useful information. On Thursday (April 18), Q Prime Management's Peter Mensch sat for an AMA, and offered a few tantalizing tidbits about activity in the Led Zeppelin camp.

Today (April 1), we honor the birth date of one of the most beloved musicians of his era, Ronnie Lane. This Rock and Roll Hall of Fame rocker was a driving force in two British bands of note, the Small Faces and later, the Faces, being joined by singer Rod Stewart and guitarist Ron Wood. Ronnie Lane often brought folk-based songwriting and sensibilities to the bands he joined, giving his songs a organic feel that was very reflective of the times that he lived in.

Robert Plant on a Led Zeppelin Reunion: "I'm Not the Bad Guy"

Barbara LaRue — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 17:18:39 +0000

Robert Plant is pretty much saying it’s not his fault that Led Zeppelin hasn’t reunited yet AND he’s “got nothing to do in 2014″. Wait. What??? I really hope Robert Plant isn’t jerking us around, but I felt I had to share some news for all of us Zeppelin fanatics. It’s actually just a hint [...]

Jimmy Page at 69: Planning a 2013 Solo Tour

Happy birthday to Mr. James Patrick Page, born on January 9, 1944, in Middlesex, England. Jimmy Page needs no introduction, of course, and not surprisingly, he’s been ranked at #3 on Rolling Stone’s list of “The 100 Greatest Guitarists of all Time”. And I love that the magazine describes Page as “the pontiff of power [...]

Zeppelin: Viking Sex with Hobbits

Barbara LaRue — Tue, 04 Dec 2012 15:36:19 +0000

So now all the mysticism becomes clear and we finally know what they were talking about. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, and John Paul Jones explained it all on Letterman last night, on the heels of their (collective) Kennedy Centers Honors award over the weekend. By the way, following the premiere of the concert film, “Celebration [...]

Best Guitar Face(s)

Barbara LaRue — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 15:19:56 +0000

You know, it’s the face that guitar players make when they’re totally absorbed in the music they’re creating. Sometimes they look odd, sometimes they look ecstatic, sometimes they even look goofy, but it’s fun to watch, isn’t it? You can find some really good guitar faces here, but I found a few other really good [...]

Led Zeppelin – Whole Lotta Love- Live Madison Square Garden [VIDEO]

Andy Chase — Fri, 11 May 2012 21:50:35 +0000

Last night as I was flipping through channels, I stumbled across a Led Zeppelin concert at Madison Square Garden going back to 1973 for the “Song remains the same” album. My only criticism about the concert was the amount of times the camera focused on Robert Plant’s crotch. (I’ll leave it that!) Between Jimmy Page’s [...]

How does one begin to pay homage to a living legend like Jimmy Page? Rolling Stone Magazine calls him "The Pontiff of Power Riffing", Gibson ranks him at #2 in the list of "Top 50 Guitarists of All Time" and he was ranked 3rd in Rolling Stone's list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time" (and that was just this past year, no less).

(Sir) Jimmy Page, Your Time Is Gonna Come (most likely)

Barbara LaRue — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 17:51:07 +0000

Jimmy Page could soon be knighted if a member of British Parliament has her way. If you’re not familiar with the British Orders of the Empire, let me attempt to enlighten you. They are: GBE, KBE, CBE, OBE and MBE. No one has any idea what they mean. That’s because attempting to understand the order of five classes in civil [...]
