Amazing to see Jimmy Page finally on the cover of my favorite guitar magazine [December 2020]. Better yet to read an interview where he gives us more than the usual glimpse into the forces that shaped his genius. I’ve read more than my fill of stories about the making of Led Zeppelin albums and the history of that overwrought Zepp song one dare not play in musical instrument stores! [Writer] Ian Fortnan seemed to connect with Page on another level, and the result is one of the best interviews with the man that I’ve had the pleasure to read. Thank you for the opportunity. It comes late in Page’s life and in Guitar Player’s too, but I’m glad to have it. —
