I collected the set from various sorces. My HOTH copy was a proper Engliah Language version as are most of the others I have, but when I obtained Vol. 3 (from Amazon) it was a Japanese version with a Japanese lyric sheet. I assume the set was made available in different countries and it is not always possible to find the correct versions for sale on the internet.

Just listened several times. It does sound more like devil people than gentle people, in fact it really doesn't sound anything like gentle people. Whatever, I don't really put much meaning into it though, just replying to teh original post.

At one of the 75 Earls Court concerts (I was there) Plant made a nice speech about Grant, he spoke about his help and support etc. he then ended with something like "What a man, what a band member in fact"

Hi
in Meet & Greet
Hi all.
Been checking out the site and forum for some time and decided to join up.
I am a fireman who lives in North Wales. I have been listening to Zep since I was a kid in the 70's. I managed to see them live once in Earls Court many years ago. Over the years I have baught their albums on vinyl, tape and CD, I have them all on my computer now so I can listen while I surf. I often like to listen to certain tracke while I read other peoples comments and opinions about them. Keep up the good work everone.
So is Jimmy Page a 'sloppy' player?

Well I haven't been playing a guitar for 30+ years, (I did play the recorder when I was 6 though LOL), so I don't notice when he plays a bad note on an album. I wouldn't know if he did or didn't intend the intro to Hotdog to sound how it does. I do know though that I think he writes and plays brilliant music. That to me is more important..
Everyone has a bad day in the office. But Page on form plays some of the most amazing music out there. I have always thought that Jeff Beck is a better technical player, but I don't think he writes or produces music anywhere near as well as Page. So, yes, maybe Jimmy is a bit "sloppy" at times but he makes up for it in his own brilliant way. That's my take on it.
I would also hazard a guess that he vast majority of the population would not recognise a badly played note in a song on any album. We don't know what was meant to be played, so accept the result.
I am 56 and fortunate to have seen Zep play in 1975. During any live performance it is not so obvious when a few notes or chords are played badly, however if you get the chance to listen to the tapes over and again, mistakes will always be there. Thats the problem with "live" albums I guess.
