RiotHouse Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I've always loved the music Jimmy created and developed within the bow section of a LZ concert...Not forgetting RP's contributions also... These are some of my favorites; 1969 - Texas Pop Festival 8/31/69 (D&C) 1972 - Sydney Showgrounds 2/27/72 (great crowd reaction) 1973 - Fort Worth 5/19/73 I would be interested to know if anyone else has there favorites??

EzyEric Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 you are so lucky, i was born in the ninties so the band didn't play much anymore. That doesnt make any sense. I dont believe the thread starter went to any of those shows. We were asking what your favorite jimmy page bow solo is. (As heard from live recordings). Anyways my answer, though Im not totally sure as though I once favored the bow solo as it was unique/impressive I now dont like it so much. At least the screeching parts, the part where he slaps it and does the point towards the sky as the echo kicks in I love. Id probably just say Royal Albert Hall (D&C) or TSRTS. But knowing how much I like Texas Pop that could be up there too. I was hoping this thread said favorite solo, probably an overly discussed topic, but not one Ive been able to discuss on here as they have not been new since Ive been.

bigstickbonzo Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Page did once say after watching the Madison Sq. Garden footage from 73, the bow solo was incredible and he was very proud of it. Personally, I can't disagree. It's well crafted and worked out. But it's fun listening to earlier versions where he's still messing around with ideas and piecing together themes that would eventually culminate to the 73 versions.

Sibh23 Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 RAH 1970, eerie and atmospheric. Helped by the tone of the Guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZepFanatic Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I just listened to the Nassau Coliseum 2/14/75 SBD boot last night and apart from being a fucking fantastic show (one of the best Dazed's and Stariway's EVER!) the bow solo in Dazed is incredible...

Walter Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I personally enjoyed the bow solo from Orlando '71 the best. Love the groove Pagey gets into, which almost doesn't sound like a bow hitting the strings. Amazing work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnlennon696 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Page did once say after watching the Madison Sq. Garden footage from 73, the bow solo was incredible and he was very proud of it. I wish there was more footage of Jimmy playing the bow section of D&C, although i haven't seen any Earls Court footage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aen27 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) I love the one from Long Beach Arena on How the West Was Won, from I believe '72. It's scary...get gives me chills and I love it. Edited January 8, 2010 by aen27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yupter Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I like the 1977-23 LA incarnation of the bow solo (not including the the theremin parts of course). Anyone else get transported to the desert when listening to Page's bow solos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zepps_apprentice Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Either Royal Albert Hall or MSG 73 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
