Check out the song Razamanaz sometime from the Nazareth album Razamanaz. Guitarist Manuel Charlton pulls off some Pagey riffs. -
I posted this website on one other thread. Which means you read my commentary already.

It seems like I read somewhere that LZ opened for Spirit during their early days. Page must have heard Taurus played at some time and might have been inspired by it later to write STH.

I got on my computer and went to msn.com to see if they had any news items about this. They had posted a video of The Ocean possibly from the MSG footage. What surprised me was the source. It said Atlantic Records "Live In Seattle" Anyone heard about this?
