It’s an absolutely beautiful home and a magnificent piece of architecture and artistic work. I’m very happy to see that Sir James has restored it authentically and shows it every bit of the respect that it’s due. You can even see in the photography that the paneled walls are well fed with wood polish and the floors are very well cared for too. I’m happy that he enjoys the house so much because he’s my favorite musician.

Oh how I wish that Sir James was still regularly writing music as everything that sprang from his hands were pure masterpieces and as much as I treasure his years with the Yardbirds and his magnificent twelve years with Led Zeppelin, I wished for a lifetime of his compositions. I love his work. It’s some of the most emotional and simultaneously complex and compelling music I’ve ever heard and it is part of my regular musical diet.

I hoped to see Jimmy but he was off doing genius artist things. Wanted to see Robbie so I could yell at him on Jimmy's behalf, but alas it was not to be. Great episode. Thanks.

well, old homes much older got wired and the wires are inside metal tubing, discreetly along the wall moldings. there are lights shining up on t he tops of the walls, onto the paintings. So that 's possibly electrical wiring. Look on the walls, the light switches might be dark brass or old dark brown plastic. I can see one behind a door . If there are chandeliers, or wall sconce lights, there is wiring.( i see some) . Could be behind the paneling, easily removed and then put back on. I see speakers on the bottom right on one scene. Those would probably have to plug in. If no candles, then he has lights. It's a victorian home, those usually got wired not long after wiring became available.

I've always wondered if it was a large kitchen or perhaps even a garage? There seems to be a tiny walkway that attaches it to the main house. Do you happen to know what I'm referring to? I've never seen interior photos of it and it's never talked about from what I've been able to tell for myself. Just curious. I've wondered about it for so long now....i just want to know what it is!
