At the recent U2 Academic Conference , I had the opportunity to be at the local premiere of It Might Get Loud , a much-more-than documentary of the electric guitar as told through the careers of Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, U2's The Edge, and Jack White of The White Stripes and Raconteurs. For the record, I thought that White was going to be totally out of his league - while I wouldn't call him a "legend"...
This week it is David Bowie's 1970 (released in early 1971 in the UK) album The Man Who Sold The World This album was where the blueprint for his later incarnation as Ziggy Stardust can first be seen, not least because it is where the nucleus of the Spiders From Mars first comes together. The album was a real departure from what had come before as far as Bowie's music is concerned. The sound is heavy,...
The little-documentary-that-could The Story Of Anvil , about the band that was like a "real life Spinal Tap" right down to having a drummer named Robb Reiner, stole everyone's heart this past year. Except for people whose hearts are made of stone. Or metal. Well if your heart was made of \m/ metal then it probably stole your heart, too. But if your heart is made of Oscar-material precious...
Filed under: News , Holy Hell It's no secret that Dave Grohl loves him some Led Zeppelin .

But this love affair hasn't been a recent thing by any means. In an interview with Rolling Stone , Grohl reveals...
Band biographer claims that DJs only played the now classic song because it was the 'perfect length' for a cigarette break Was the secret to Stairway to Heaven's success the fact that it gave DJs the chance to nip out for a cigarette? That's the theory of Led Zeppelin biographer Charles R Cross, who claims that 100 radio presenters "literally ... swore" that they aired the now classic tune...
The notorious film director on cheating death, the awfulness of restaurants – and how he can't stand boring people It is with a mixture of fear and exhilaration that I approach Michael Winner's large house – he likes to describe it as a mansion – in London's fashionable Holland Park. God knows how much it's worth – £25m maybe. Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin lives next door,...
There are many ways of thinking about desperation. From the "OMG I really need to find a loo" type of desperate, through personal pain at the break-up of a relationship, finding out that a lover had cheated on you, the desperation caused by addiction and the need to score that next hit and the desperation caused by having no money all the way across to the utter sense of desperate emptiness...
Is it really possible to teach yourself guitar? Well, if you are motivated enough and are inspired by virtuoso guitar masters that previously learned by ear such as Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, and Ace Frehley, you can most definitely teach yourself how to play the guitar in less time than most would imagine possible.
#?: Stefani Germanotta The Lady Gaga gives us so many different looks, it's not feasible to rank her properly. But this smurf-sized hottie definitely belongs somewhere in the list of most beautiful women. Oh....another thing.....she is the most talented musician to arrive on the scene since Jimmy Page.

Hammer of the Gods , Stephen Davis's 1985 biography of Led Zeppelin, was dismissed by the band as a seedy fiction, but if this account by band confidant Mick Wall portrays anything more clean-living, it's only by a tiny amount. Wall includes fine detail – inter-band politics, the whiff of the rehearsal room – but lurid anecdotes dominate, such as tales of hotels trashed with samurai swords....
