I know where I'm going musically. I can see my pattern and I'm going much slower than I thought I'd be going.

You get as much out of rock & roll artistically as you put into it. There's nobody who can teach you. You're on your own and that's what I find so fascinating about it.

Right from the first time we went to America in 1968, Led Zeppelin was a word-of-mouth thing. You can't really compare it to how it is today.

You absorb so much from whatever your environment is, as an artist, and you learn to take from it what can help you create.

I always felt if we were going in to do an album, there should already be a lot of structure already made up so we could get on with that and see what else happened.

There's so much that can be done on the guitar. And that's what is so good about the guitar - everyone can really enjoy themselves on it and have a good time, which is what it's all about.
