Isolation doesn't bother me at all. It gives me a sense of security.
I'm just looking for an angel with a broken wing.
The benchmark of quality I go for is pretty high.
I wasn't into jazz so much - I preferred things raw.
The Yardbirds folded in 1968, and within a handful of months, Led Zeppelin was not only a band but also a very successful one.
In the wake of the San Francisco scene, ears were alive. It was a listening generation.
You want that - peers respecting what you're doing.
Led Zeppelin was an affair of the heart. Each of the members was important to the sum total of what we were.
I'm always looking for the creative spark. Always.
'Communication Breakdown' - it was punchy and direct, with a real attitude that was different to other bands going around.
I was excited about opening for Vanilla Fudge because I was a big fan of theirs.
I always believed in the music we did and that's why it was uncompromising.
I think it was that we were really seasoned musicians. We had serious roots that spanned different cultures, obviously the blues.
I don't think the critics could understand what we were doing.
I may not believe in myself, but I believe in what I'm doing.
I do not recall ever seeing Spirit perform live.
I am very good at remembering music and am absolutely certain that I never heard 'Taurus' until 2014.
I'm not a guitar hero.
If you listen to our work, from 'Led Zeppelin I' to 'Coda,' it's just a fantastic textbook.
I play like I play. You hear it on 'Celebration Day.' It's pretty good for a one-night shot.
I've played guitar in so many different styles, and I want to revisit them all.
That's one of the problems with the Zeppelin stuff. It sounds ridiculous on MP3. You can't hear what's there properly.
You'll find so many of the guitarists from the '60s will all say Lonnie Donegan was the influence.
I can play in many sorts of categories because we've seen that with Led Zeppelin, all the acoustic stuff, and this, that and the other.
I'm pretty loyal to my guitars, you know, but then they're pretty loyal to me, too.
Time sometimes passes quite quickly.
I have one of those gravel-y voices with no range to it.
If people want to find things, they find them themselves.
