  1. Page can say that, sure, but IMO he was just trying to cover his ass...listen to the intro to "Hot Dog" with the song slowed down a bit, then try and keep track of the amount of notes Jimmy either misses or muffles. I can see him standing in the middle of the control room, Telecaster slung low, ciggie hanging out of his mouth and laying down that guitar track with the same caution-be-damned approach he took in his live playing. Except this was for a record which millions of people would buy and listen to. A couple more takes and he might have nailed it, just not what was released on In Through The Out Door.

    I agree. It sounds very genuinely sloppy.

  2. I think I read somewhere that page supposed to have close to 300 Guitars in his collection. Even by 1977, you'd think he'd have a lot of guitars lying around. He only took about 7 guitars on tour that year (his number 1, number 2 and number 3 les pauls, 2 acoustics, his telecaster and his double neck, plus a mandolin which may or may not be Jonesy's)

  3. 10 Ribs & All/Carrot Pod Pod (who ever came up with that title is a genius :lol:) is probably my favorite instrumental of all the companion audio. If this song was finished and put on Presence, the album would have sold more and gotten better reception.
