Zepphile Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I'd say it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecube Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I listened to it a bit and the tone is somewhat reminiscent of his JP's acoustic tones on Juggula with Roy Harper. I wouldn't say no right away. I kind of hear some mannerisms as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swandown Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yes it's Jimmy. He's writing "The Rain Song" and "Carole's Theme" while we listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyn Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 It is Jimmy. It can be found on the Scopio Ultimate Studio Sessions box set. According to the info file there are 28 tracks recorded at "Jimmy Page's home studio, somewhere in U.K. '71 or Headley Grange Studios, Hampshire, England Nov. '73" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, I only could listen to the first few minutes...but the tone sounded so much like those crappy Ovation acoustics he used in the 80s, I thought it had to be an impostor.

Texas Melanie Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 It sounds like he is working on ideas instead of playing an actual song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyn Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 So at about 7:50 into the video above, what I really want to know is if this is Jimmy playing the piano. This is from the same Scorpio set, from the same exact "session" as I posted above. Either at Page's house 71 or Headley Grange Studios, Nov. '73. The people on youtube seem to think it is Page...I remain skeptical. Anybody know if Page was a pianist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glyn Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Did he play some keyboard work on Death Wish? He is credited for synth. There are 3 or 4 other people credited for synth and piano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was known to fool around on piano but the piece on this bootleg sounds too professional to be Jimmy. I suspect that it might be an outtake from the "Death Wish 2" sessions in 1981 (which featured Dave Lawson and David Whittaker on piano). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura_Page Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 About that piece of piano, I have an outtake (don't know if it belongs to the same bootleg of the video) in which this piece is after other guitar tune that is pretty similar in its progression, so if the guitar one does belong to Jimmy, the other one may belong to him as well. What's more, I know I've seen certain photo in which Jimmy is playing a keyboard, as well as some photos from Plumpton Home Studio in which a keyboard can be seen, so I wouldn't deny it is his composition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
