Jimmy Page - Interview with Mick Wall 1988 (MTV)

Yep, he liked his coke.

[@daniellewatson8352]

@@robinwatson4282 Actually his preference was heroin besides the alcohol. He was so intrigued by Aleister Crowley who was a heroin addict that he purchased his home. Sick really.

Jimmy legend

[@evabb34]

That smile always 😍🐉🎸❤

[@tvs3497]

Jimmy came through Atlanta around this time in need of some emergency tech work on his guitars. Someone turned him on to Greg Curbow, guitar engineer deluxe. Well, Jimmy was immediately impressed with Greg and offered him a job for the rest of the tour... to which Greg accepted. I don't know anymore on that subject, but when I first walked into Curbow's Music Store in Morganton, Ga -as big as a supermarket - sometime in the mid '90s, I looked up over the doorway and saw a poster-size autographed picture of Jimmy, personalized to Greg thanking him for ".... taking care of my guitars". Curbow passed on in 2005?, but there's still some Curbow bass guitars floating around out there, designed and handmade by the master himself. He didn't talk much about the Outrider adventure, but he seemed right proud to have shared the experience with Pagey... and the memento. If you've never been on a rock tour, I can tell you it's a circus of calamities on end but a helluva lot of fun, too. The chemistry has to be there or you probably won't finish it. And that's a testament to Led Zeppelin for the many tours and albums they accomplished and the after-Zep tours as well. Truly, the stuff legends are made of.

The banter was so bad too, Jimmy should have buried this guy

[@Kennyiaf]

That ego stoke at 8:00 so funny LOL Jimmy deserves it tho

[@allancerf9038]

I think that this was the point in his alcoholic 80's (his friends were terrified) that Page has begun quitting drinking or has done so. His weird movements look like those of my best friend's alcoholic dad when he went dry.

[@CarolineMartin]

Still got that cocaine nose rubbing thing

[@jimmycampbell78]

My theory is that in the 1980s Page replaced his heroin addiction with alcohol abuse, and he was definitely using cocaine from time to time as well. I don't think he got really clean until the 00s. Even in the 1990s he looked bloated and unhealthy.

[@Avestruz-sionista]

For real??

[@luv4hutch]

Really? Your dad is Mick Wall, the author of the When Giants Walked The Earth book and other such books? If so, have to say, your dad is a case of "your mileage may vary." When he's good, he's good, when he's off, he's way off. Sometimes he's a weird mixture. I mean, in the Zep book, he says he preferred the shambolic Live Aid set over the majesty of the Celebration Day concert. And of course, he perpetuates the "it's Phil Collins' fault" myth. The one book that was really inexcusable was his Doors biography, and the way he viciously attacked Ray Manzarek and called him a phony. What did Ray ever do to him?
