MJC455 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 To me HMMT at RAH dvd is an exemplary display of his tone particuarly @ 5:00 mark , but like has been said too may to choose from ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMV Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Page's tone on "In My Time of Dying" CLEANS HOUSE. The biggest baddest slide work around, zooming in and out on the solo like it's coming from another world. "Walter's Walk", especially the raucous fade out, which could be THE heaviest moment in Zeppelin history, with Page's tone, Bonzo's pounding, and Plant matching their ferocity full force. "The Song Remains The Same" a total tour de force of Jimmy's broad palette of tones, all working together, not just showboating. His tone on "Achillest Last Stand", "Hots On For Nowhere", and "Nobody's Fault But Mine" (which was crazy at the O2 reunion, he broke out his whammy pedal or something amazing to sound just like the record). The solo break on WLL is always top notch. "In The Evening" - I dig the way his backward tremolo release intro comes crashing into his solo. Never heard anything like it before or since. Innovative, slick, and edgy, but always serving the song properly. "Communication Breakdown" remains the quintessential rock solo, quick to the point, with bending, balls, tone, attitude....holy Christ Page screams on this solo. Best answer on this post. Keen insight there. That was fun to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock Historian Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 The guitar tone and solo on For Your Life is one of the most dramatic performances on a zeppelin record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Love That I Found Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 "The Rover" was the one that first came to mind for me. It's one of my all-time favorites. I also love his tone on "The Song Remains The Same" (a crystal-like shimmer underneath it all). Also "I'm Gonna Crawl" (the main lick is similar in tone to "The Song Remains The Same" but even more elegant and his bluesy solo is perhaps his prettiest ever recorded. Alongside TSRTS version of "Since I've Been Loving You" it is probably my favorite Zeppelin solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swann Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Dancing Days is a beautiful tone, amazingly well balanced..other ones that spring to mind are the solo in 'Since..', 'The Ocean', and I love the tone of the rhythm and lead guitar parts in Travelling Riverside Blues. Jimmy had a great knack in the studio for blending tones and getting the perfect balance and feel when he played distorted..heavy without ever being turgid...so many other guitarists just dial in a generic pub rock distortion sound and run amok. Never Jimmy..he had the masterful grace and touch of a painter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElAlbino Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 The rough and dirty sounds of I and II are definley the best sounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiMiHeNdRiX1967 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 I know it isnt on record but When he does the riff to bring it on home at RAH its just downright nasty. On record, probably good times bad times or ten years gone, but that was like a lot of guitars so idk if that counts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverseas Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hots On for Nowhere (The nasally two pickup sound ala Peter Green ((Thanks to the Push Pull Pots)) ) That must be post-Led Zeppelin as he didn't have the push/pulls till AFTER Zeppelin's demise.
