Soloing Secrets - Jimmy Page

[@DAVIDSMITH-io6pc]

The solo on "No quarter" ,[live version] is just perfect fast bursts of notes ,and dynamics ,use of the wah pedal,, a masterclass in itself ,"the song remains the same LP is chock full of riffs ,solos ,licks ,never gets old.

[@jonholland6067]

Absolutely David. His vibrato on the final no quarter solo is incredible!

[@hazor777]

Yep - probably my favorite performance on TSRTS. Jimmy Page's delve into Jazz during No Quarter just shows his ability to translate his unique style of playing into a fusion of Rock and Jazz . I've been listening to that album for decades, and that performance never gets old to me, ever. Cool fact: Much of that movie was shot in a movie production studio, due to poorly shot footage from the Madison Square Garden dates that were originally recorded. As far as that actual track, I'm not quite sure if it was the studio performance or the audio of one of the live shows at MSG, but still awesome nonetheless. You can tell because some clips Plant's hair is slightly different vs the MSG shows etc..

[@ThrashRoC]

It´s DEFINETLY the BEST Live Improvisation of a Solo EVER ..He uses Dorian Mode and changes one note ..i studied this solo on and on ...

[@ThrashRoC]

James "Jimmy" Patrick Page ist for me the GREATEST LIVING ROCK Legend !! and A Guitar God !!

[@manitheman0806]

I would add and say have a show on the best licks on TSRS.....incredible soloing and definitely a master class of licks

[@brianmcdermott281]

I always go through phases of digging certain players but Pagey is always the guy I’ll come back to , love your videos btw David 🤘

[@michaelheller8841]

When I think of Page, he is the reason why I picked up the guitar over 35 years ago. His sound, style and riffs will always be legend. I can listen to many guitarists and love all of it, Page will always be at the top for me. Mick Taylor is another favorite of mine. Keep the music alive.

[@hadenh6681]

The thing about Page is that he was really a pretty average guitarist, but everytime he played he conveyed a sense of freedom and excitement, same with Hendrix

[@luisb5220]

@@hadenh6681 "average" hahaha man are you drunk? This man is a pioneer, he already played things in the 60s wich have never been played before. He is a genius when it comes to musical knowledge, recording and songwriting, a crafter of licks that every rockguitarist after him tried to copy (even when they didn't know) and therefore he is a legend on the guitar so calling him average is an insult...

[@stulevine]

I'm a huge Led Head. I grew up listening to all those albums as a kid. These days, I go through phases where I can't get enough of Led Zeppelin. I'll just put on some headphones and listen to all the intricacies of their music and Jimmy's playing. Thanks for adding this to your lineup.

[@justaguy328]

One of the best guitar channels on youtube

[@ledflaplin2001]

You’re hands down my favorite guitar teacher on KZbin! You’re just an incredible player and instructor. Thanks for what you do for us!

[@ThrashRoC]

"since i´ve been loving you" is the Greatest Slow Blues Progression i´ve ever heard ..and it´s complex and Cool and makes so much fun to play ..

[@bryanmoraski7005]

That opening jam was insane. I had to stop the vid and grab my guitar. Since ive been loving you is so fun to play. Its one of the first songs i ever tried to learn ( 40 years ago ) . Thanks Dave.

[@dripstein6130]

It’s funny because I’ve seen countless videos of shredders like EVH and yngwie and Paul Gilbert live and Evem tho it seemed like magic at first and in a way, still does… I’ve been able to figure out their secrets. Yet, Jimmy page is an entirely other entity. I still watch his live solos and I still have no idea how he makes his guitar scream like he does 🤣 dude is a magician first, musician second I’ll give him that much.

[@kensalazar5066]

At a live yardbirds show at the Anderson Theater in NYC, Keith Relf called him " Jimmy Magic fingers, the most grand sorcerer of the magic guitar"

[@babylemonade2868]

Been waiting for this one Dave.

[@Jameskeith1972]

I’m surprised that I haven’t seen your channel before?? Anyway. Glad to discover your platform. I love Jimmy page too.

[@leechild4655]

Jimmy is good at keeping his hardcore fans on the edge of their/our seat. He has said he has stuff he wants to put out and just needs to get some guys to play it with him. A new solo album? New releases of older material he`s been toying with for years? He doesnt specify too much but does say he has material he wants to get out there. When? Who knows..

[@Yourbankaccount]

ugh I'm afraif he's out of his old great shape... Hopefully we'll get some never seen before concert footage of Zeppelin

[@JohnnyBargeldBoom]

David, you are awesome!!!

[@dallasahlberg7833]

Dude. The intro definitely sounded like Page and his style, but there were also a few "Brewsterisms" thrown in as well. Awesome. Totally awesome. Spectacular way to showcase a players style and affinities and add a little bit of yourself. You are the man! Zeppelin Rules!

[@stevet.4974]

7:27 this is one of my favorite sounds on the guitar and I work in it all the time everywhere I can

[@robsgarage4746]

Love that Tribal solo! Excellent.

[@uncleremus5046]

The Greatest Riff Writer along with Iommi! Thanks 🍺’ski another great lesson.

[@CRP2426]

Killer TONE!!! It's not the Gear is you and your Passion, and it sounds amazing!

[@gobodega5226]

I don't know anyone who plays a more fluid and wide and intense vibrato. Super musical. I admire that in every lesson you teach. Great David 🙂🙂👌

[@pattipotvine1073]

Thanks. I would like to say that while I really appreciate your efforts I couldn't help but feel, all the way through, that I was waiting for you to start the actual "lesson".

[@sergedenovo2389]

Jimmy Page and Vai are the reasons why I have a guitar. Why I love guitar. _How Many More Times_ solo was the most beautiful soul tearing solo I heard back in the days when all the other people were listening to hair bands. :) You’re awesome Dave. I just bought a wah! :) Can you maybe do an episode on using it? :) Cause I don’t know how to use it. …I got the CGB95. I know there are more expensive ones but I wanted the classic and that’s all I could afford. Take care, bro. Serge from Chicago.

[@iannash1027]

Thank you David - absolutely loving all of this series so far. Anyone that's really listened to Zeppelin (I've been doing that for a very long time) will know that you've nailed Jimmy's solo secrets - the pivots, the Maj 3rd, the licks with open strings and more - it's all there. 100% agree with you about the books too - essential reads to understand what Led Zep were about.

[@straycatflauter5377]

one of your best... thanks so much , cant wait to get home to try this

[@Mike-rw2nh]

It’s 3pm here in the UK. I’m off work with a very antisocial stomach. I was feeling sorry for myself, but then… Thank you.

[@cognoscenticycles4351]

Jimmy Page's legacy is quite amazing and he certainly deserves all the accolades one can muster for his work as an innovative song writer, studio wizard and live performer. He stayed true to his own sonic vision even though he was surrounded by several guitar playing icons in the making like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. He was equally talented as an acoustic player and electric player. The albums he made are timeless classics that explore several musical genres. He was a one of a kind that doesn't come along that often.

[@michaelsingley5641]

Opening jam was awesome David. 👌

[@KnownBeing]

Thanks so much, David! You revealed a lot of Pageisms that were not on my radar screen. Love your videos. I watched your Roy Buchanan and Jimmy Page lessons in the same evening!

[@cfibanez]

Great as usual. Thanks for your sharing your research on the great JP. Cheers.

[@dougstubbs4351]

This should be fun. Can't wait to get off work and check this lesson out again thanks for your time and knowledge

[@blackorpheous]

This channel really rocks !!

[@timothyfatone1390]

SICK! I’m gonna watch this video 100 times try to get half as good as you on these licks. Thank you.

[@timpuckett110]

Such a great lesson. I love late night lessons !

[@MarkfromArk357]

Another great lesson, your phrasing is spot on.

[@greg77hot]

Awesome David .. thanks

[@muskymike1885]

Jimmy took the Yardbirds a step further, one of my favs and I saw Zeplin play on there first tour, incredible

[@christiantaylor4027]

Gotta agree.That live version is hypnotic. And he probably improvised it.

[@christiantaylor4027]

Thank you

[@frankiedonofrio5438]

You never disappoint !!!...Thank You

[@samrotschild]

I had just what i was looking for! I really appreciate your lesson, it’s goin to be my next weeks lesson

[@tomblaze2]

This guy is a hero - in 1 week of watching these videos i m like 10 years ahead

[@ThrashRoC]

This Channel is SO Great !! but Page/Zeppelin deserve a whole Line of Lessons ..Pagey got SO DAMM much cool Licks .. Please Transcribe the whole Live Performance of "Dazed and Confused" at Madison square garden 1973 MY ROLE IS TO ROCK (Jimmy Page)

[@VALINOR24]

Awesome lesson. I'm also an avid Led Zeppelin fan and Jimmy Page is among my favorites. Another favorite of mine is Dimebag Darrell, I'd like to see you do lesson on his solos.

[@richprincipe749]

Thanks.. These analysis videos are pure gold!! Also, you’re an amazing player…

[@jhut5150]

Very cool!! I’d love to see a soloing secrets of Joe Perry and Brad Whitford sometime. Thanks for all that you do for the guitar community.

[@Wolferal]

Wow, fantastic lesson and insights.

[@anthonytremblett8187]

Page and Hendrix are my 2 top guitarist and Zeppelin has been the best band to me, since I was 14...I think I was. Great vid, thanks👍🎶💕

[@Dan-zq5wt]

Great video! I really enjoy your conversational style and I have to say I also really like your playing! Sweet vibrato, man. Anyway, Jimmy Page is my all time, personal hero. There’s so much to learn from Jimmy beyond his soloing style (which I love): his compositions, production and sound expertise, fills, rhythm, dynamics, textures and on and on. Just listen, for example to a live version of The Ocean. In one song you get a hard rock riff, funk, and 50’s style rock, with incredible fills and transitions and dynamics. The breakdown in the middle: wah on, wah off, he might throw in a pick slide, some funky chunky rhythms etc etc. His imagination was endless and his in the pocket feel is incredible. For me he’s on the Mt. Rushmore of rock players with Hendrix, Beck and VH (ok add Iommi and Blackmore) but he also is the greatest in many ways beyond soloing.

[@kellybeane7546]

This lesson will help so many people that latch on to these consepts

[@fredricksoncausey9772]

Jimmy page..legendary!!! The very main reason I started learning guitar!!!!

[@aaronespinosa7357]

Thanks, pretty nice lesson. Jimmy Page is the BEST

[@billwarkentin3630]

Awesome lesson, David!! Jimmy Page is the man!

[@STAMPER-DESIGN]

Such an amazing lesson! Thanks a million

[@stevengrinold7631]

Great lesson David! Love Pagey!

[@xjohn1970]

I love Led Zeppelin and the Guitar work from Jimmy Page is amazing.

[@voronOsphere]

Oh wow!!!!! Jimmy Page "Soloing Secrets"! This is gonna be GREAT, David! Thank you!!!

[@voronOsphere]

Page's picking patterns are so awesome. I'd love it if you did a "Late Night Lesson" about different picking pattern possibilities for various scales!

[@stevet.4974]

That opening jam was to fresh inspired and bad ass.

[@Kingsideburns]

Damn dude....You really moved me on this episode. 🙏🤘❤❤

[@gedbogjid2218]

Zep fan since forever... you could do a dozen episodes!

[@jamesmarcin4787]

Will definitely be digging into this lesson. Thanks 😁👍

[@MT-or7lv]

Another great lesson. I'm always learning something new from your lessons. Thanks Dave!

[@shreddievanhalen1]

Geez that opening jam got the hairs on the back of my neck standing up! Wish I was home to pick up my guitar. Saved for later tho :)

[@jimbrewster6483]

Hi David, My name is Jim Brewster, thank you for a great lesson!

[@general7554]

You the MAN!

[@saxonsteve]

Fantastic lessons Dave! I don’t think there isn’t any one you can’t play! How bout a tutorial on Mr. Rory Gallagher!

[@imacmadman22]

🔥The guitarist who inspired me to play. 🔥

[@richardcranium8500]

Jimmy is awesome.

[@GuitarguyRichard56]

Great analysis. Thanks

[@blainebaxter7684]

These opening jams are fire my friend 🔥

[@if6turnedouttobe9]

Right on Dave...Right on...

[@roberthamlin6638]

Thank you. I very much enjoy your videos.

[@StuartwasDrinkell]

Jimmy Page: "Eddie who?" lol... what a guy! My voyage was the opposite; Though I was born a month after the Maddison Square Garden concert my older brothers raised me on Zep, so Page first then Eddie, both mind blowing players! Thanks for isolating the thinking behind these techniques. Since I've been loving you is my favourite showcase for Jimmy, but for Led Zep as a whole, Achilles Last Stand all the way, that song could easily have been 3 good songs for mere mortal bands!

[@gedders1604]

Stood next to Mr.Page as we were digging through vinyl at a local Record Fair - I was told not to ask for a selfie or an autograph (by the dealers- they knew the score)......I wasn't even allowed to look at him ;-) V. Spinal!!

[@jimmyb4728]

LED ZEPPELIN THE G.O.A.T. been listening to ZEPPELIN since 1975 and still do.

[@buddylobos5277]

Jimmie & Jeff. I just love that they both claim to have written 'Beck's Bolero' on Jeff's TRUTH album. .LOL Great lesson should get alot of views.

[@allboutthemojo]

I love the sound you dial in for all your lessons. I know you've mentioned people criticizing your amp, but I would gladly get that same set up. Also sounds like you have s sprinkling of fuzz on most of the times? Which is perfect 👍 Would love to know if you offer Skype/ zoom lessons?

[@ThrashRoC]

Same to me ..i am the BIGGEST Led Zep / Jimmy Page Fan ...His Guitar style was SO special !

[@esteban1487]

Became a session player in his teens. Incredible.

[@danguitarman91]

Been listening to a lot of Zep lately so this is very handy to get some Page style into my playing

[@SuperMozzman]

It's funny how there is so much talk about getting stuck in a rut with position 1 minor pentatonic, and while that's true to a degree that basic scale is responsible for so much great stuff.

[@penyopetrov7081]

This is what the electric guitar was made for, thanks a lot

[@jaybee-5481]

Great content

[@mesoanarchy]

Please please please next with JP DO Houses… Physical… Presence and… MSG (the live No Quarter chord sketch choices and -- The Solo, which is just crazy, impeccable, height of creativity live JP!). Dave, please excuse me sounding like I’m treating you like a jukebox… it’s just total respect for your ability to play, explain, and pull out the idiosyncratic aspects of each player that makes them who they are!)

[@michaelshearer3559]

Great lesson, would love to have you help with my picking hand.

[@bestboy897]

that intro solo was so good tasty af and heard some dorian in it too

[@deadtothecorevt]

Thanks so much. I just discovered your videos. You are a sensational player! At the 14:40 mark- you are doing an Am lick in the 14th position. Would you mind sharing your picking pattern for those five notes? I cannot figure out if they are alternately picked, or if you sweep from the fourth to the third string.

[@randall9000]

Oh snap a video on the big dog, the black dog. Dave have you ever done a vid on Peter Klett? Candlebox was kind of meh, but he’s an overlooked player and that first album is fully of tasty licks. Other ideas: Stone Gossard (Mikes playing is pretty cliche) and Billy Corgan (apologies if they’ve been covered). Thank you for all you teach

[@johnnybillyeager6703]

Man I love this video

[@manitheman0806]

Hey Dave....you may check some of the early LZ bootlegs and check out some Jimmy's licks and soloing...Pretty incredible stuff

[@jboughtin7522]

Zeppelin's tendency to follow their own creative instincts made an impression on me. So did the uniqueness of Pages musical ideas. Led Zeppelin could not be who there were without his creative input.
