I dislike Def Zepelin and The Soggy rots, and I don't think Jimmy Page has shown much talent in his guitar playing in anything that most people would have heard in recent years. But I do have proof that Jimmy Page can still play excellent guitar if he really wants to. Jimmy Page plays guitar on Roy Harper's most recent album "Whatever Happened To Jugula?" (1985) It's a great album (definitely in my top 20) and the guitar playing by both Roy and by Page is quite excellent. Page knew had to try for Roy, rather than just being lazy as usual, because if Page wasn't up to it, Roy would have given him the boot, just as he gave David Gilmour the boot once, when Gilmour was temporarily not up to it. Unless you've listened to this wonderful album, you just can't say Page has lost all his talent. > From: lp102911@sjuvax.UUCP (palena) > ...You know I'm sick of this dude's "Men,net.music is serious > business" attitude!!

Maybe I thought antics like yours were funny when I was in second grade. Now they just seem to be indicative of emotional retardation. But two can play these puerile games. Inject humor? Why don't you inject yourself with arsenic instead? Hah, hah! Wasn't that funny? > Face it,you take yourself too seriously,and the tone that you and that > character at MIT have imposed on this net is revolting.... But not as revolting as your face!
