I'm Very Fortunate Because I Love What

Everything That Came Later... The Roots Are All There In The First Album.

There's A Very Old Recording Maxim That Goes, 'distance Makes Depth.' I've Used That A Hell Of A Lot-whether It's Tracking Guitars Or The Whole Band. People Are Used To Close-miking Amps, But I'd Have A Mic Out Around The Back, As Well, And Then Balance The Two. Also, You Shouldn't Have To Use Eq In The Studio If The Instruments Sound Right. You Should Be Able To Get The Right Tones Simply With The Science Of Microphone Placement.

I Don't Want To Get Too Dippy About All This. If You Take The View Of The Scientist And Everything Is In A State Of Vibration, Then Every Note Is A Vibration, Which Has A Certain Frequency, And You Know That If You Put 40 Beats Into A Frequency It's Going To Be The Same Note Every Time. You Take That Into Infrasound And People Can Be Made To Be Sick, Actually Killed. Taking It The Other Way, Not To Be Too Depressing, What About Euphoria, Etc., And What About Consciousness Being Totally... No, I Won't Go Into That One. Time Warps.

There Will Be A Led Zeppelin As Long As There's A Jimmy Page, John Bonham, John Paul Jones And Robert Plant. This Isn't A Nostalgia Band Playing The Hits Forever. If Anything Ever Happened And Somebody Left - Which I Really Can't See Happening - I Don't Think We'd Bother To Carry On. The Magic For Me Is As It Is Now.

I May Not Believe In Myself, But I Believe In What I'm Doing.
