Very interesting interview, but I doubt he'll be returning to the stage very soon. I mean what would be a good idea if he did his silver jubilee of the last time he toured with his Outrider album. Yes folks that's 25 years ago next year !! I caught the last night of that tour in Manchester and have a very good recording of it too. :D

Truth and Beauty, thanks for the link!!! I always enjoy an up- to- date interview. Any news is good news here these days.

I couldn't help but notice in the short article below the video-the journalist spelled them as "Led Zepellin" and said he (Page) had just released
an album of material from Death Wish 3.....he could have done his homework more accurately and used some better English. That makes for a cheap
source when reading.

Regardless, (of the writer misprints) the info is much appreciated. :thumbsup:

It actually sounds like we might see some new music in the future.

It sounds like that since 2007.

There's always hope. The famously fractious Beach Boys are touring for their 50th anniversary (great show, saw them last week) and even have a new album coming out. You never know.

I'm just happy that Lord Page is alive and well.

That would be good. The only thing is...how far into the future will it be?

Been hearing the same old thing about new music for ages now, and he's only getting older. Same with performing live. If he's so keen to be on stage performing then why isn't he??

It's nice to hear a new interview with Jimmy. It would be nice to hear some new stuff from him, but it definitely is possible that it won't happen.

Yes. No. Maybe.

No translation needed. That's the classic JP interview message - isn't it?

Yep, or more often he will answer with his own question! :blink:
Got to love our enigmatic Mr. Page!

I firmly believe that Jimmy is waiting for Robert to issue some new studio stuff. I mean what could he do better than that ? It's not at all a matter of being dry on inspiration. IMHO he doesn't want any new/alternate singer to sing on his new tracks. Jimmy knows deeply that LZ is the best part of his legacy and he doesn't want to dissipate his energy on unfocused projects. So it's Robert or nothing. And if i'm seeing well, it seems plain RIGHT.

I do believe you are right in that its Zeppelin or nothing...outside of what were seeing with guest appearences. I have always thought Pagey has avoided, for the most part, playing smaller halls and risking not selling out. Wouldn't surprise me to see reissues of the Firm, "Whatever Happened to Jugula," as well as Coverdale/Page.
