The moment that cemented his prowess of epic proportions in the history of rock.
This one bloody moment.
A lot of people don’t realize what is going on in the finale of Page’s magnum opus that is STH live. So let me tell y'all as a connoisseur of music theory. What Page is doing is fingerpicking an incredibly hard barre chord progression with slides while keeping perfect rhythm with bonham and being completely stoned on top of that.
That is fucking unheard of. It is so hard to do if you’re high as hell and can barely stand.
It sounds so good and especially with page’s exhausted gestures
This is the holy grail of craftsmanship.
I’d wager it’d be easier to build the tower of Babylon than do something like this live.
