    I've commented before on some of your other posts, but I just want to confirm that after 50 years of playing, I've yet to see a better tutorial page from anyone. I've searched dozens of players' tutorial sites and by FAR, you are the best at the most accurate at displaying (closest) to the recorded artist's original recordings. I don't your name but you do a helluva job. And folks, this is a labor of love. The man puts in the work and the time. I'd play with you anytime. I go NOWHERE else to find the real deal. Kudos.

      SU&P only!
      Over the years, I've converted several friends, (and some strangers) to this excellent channel.
      He taught (in great detail), the live 12 string solo performance of "Still You Turn Me On" by Greg Lake of ELP.
      Just to name one great lesson.
      I do learn some songs from the Marty Schwartz yt channel when SU&P doesn't have them.
      He's a great teacher also, but nobody else has the style, technique and precision of SU&P.

      Yes but it's mostly due to his songwriting abilities. Anyone can play hundreds of notes per minute. Look at Ingwie. But can you write good songs AND play great leads? In that regard Page has no equal IMNHO.

    Nice tutorial, and thank you for taking the time to record it and post this. Normally I play my Taylor guitar but after learning this song and finding videos where Jimmy Paige plays this on a 12 string…it got me to pull out my Ovation 12 string and give it a try. I had almost convinced myself that I really didn’t need that 12 string anymore as it was just languishing in my closet for years. But, thanks to your video…I have fallen back in love with my Ovation again. In fact, this song sounds so AWESOME on a nice 12 string that it has ruined me from playing it with 6 strings forever! Gotta go now, its time to Shut Up And Play.

    If I had to choose one favorite Zep album, it would be #3. It really was a departure from the amazingly heavy and foundation-setting sound they had come to be known for with the first two albums. But, it wasn't a weak or phoned-in effort! It was just another direction and I love it.

    Great lesson and no blah blah blah like some teachers on youtube. You just get straight to the point with the right information at the right pace, thanks so much. BTW I had a go at playing along with the record and I think they drop it a semitone in the recording. Judging by Robert Plant's voice it's definitely the recording detuned, not the original guitar. They probably wanted to make it sound a bit darker and more mysterious. A bit like Strawberry Fields by the Beatles.
