In another clip from the Q&A;, Jimmy Page talks about the thought process behind keeping Led Zeppelin IV unnamed:
Page was interviewed by Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell on November 12th at the Theater at Ace Hotel in downtown Los Angeles, CA. Rolling Stone has posted a list of high points during the one-hour conversation. An excerpt is available below:
- Page described his intentions with Led Zeppelin's debut as "a guitar tour de force, but not at the expense of the other members." Taking a moment to praise each of his bandmates, he quirkily called John Bonham "very regional as a drummer."- Cornell's best turn of phrase came when he described a photo of Page sitting in a rural Welsh stream: "This is a photo of the front porch of that universe you created with acoustic music."
- The craziest outfit in the book is Page wearing a red sweater emblazoned with his "Zoso" symbol from Zeppelin's fourth album. He said that it was knitted by the girlfriend of a friend, but that when he sweated onstage, it immediately started to shrink.
- Talking about his plans for the future, Page promised to be touring soon (or soon-ish). "The most important part is to be seen to be playing," he told the crowd, which whooped with delight. "It doesn't matter what I do at home."
