Tricky Guitar Solo
Like any young aspiring musician, nailing a song can be tricky. Jimmy Page had some difficulties getting the “Stairway to Heaven” guitar solo, so John Paul Jones tried to help in the studio by saying, “You’re making me paranoid!” To which, Page responded, “You’re making *me* paranoid!” The two laughed, and a few takes later, he got it down. Of course, you know the song became a huge hit, but in 1988 Robert Plant admitted, “I’d break out in hives if I had to sing that song in every show. I wrote those lyrics and found that song to be of some importance and consequence in 1971, but 17 years later, I don’t know. It’s just not for me.”
