Jimmy Page talks about creating "Kashmir"

...and shows Jack White and The Edge how to play it. Great deleted scene from "It Might Get Loud".

Occultist, demon worshipper, and follower of Aliester Crowley..in his own words:

GW) There was always a certain amount of speculation about your occult studies. It may have been subtle, but you weren’t really hiding it.

(Page) I was living it. That’s all there is to it. It was my life - that fusion of magick and music.

(GW) Your use of symbols was very advanced. The sigil [symbols of occult powers] on Led Zeppelin IV and the embroidery on your stage clothes from that time period are good examples on how you left your mark on popular culture. It’s something that major corporations are aggressively pursuing these days: using symbols as a from of branding.

(Page) You mean talismanic magick? Yes, I knew what I was doing. There’s no point in saying much about it, because the more you discuss it, the more eccentric you appear to be. But the fact is - as far as I was concerned - it was working, so I used it. But it’s really no different than people who wear ribbons around their wrists: it’s a talismanic approach to something. Well let me amend that: it’s not exactly the same thing, but it is in the same realm. I’ll leave this subject by saying the four musical elements of Led Zeppelin making a fifth is magick into itself. That’s the alchemical process.

shinyblurry: rock musicians are all kinds of nuts -- being into 'majick' nonsense is pretty innocent as far as the rock world goes.

This Christian Zeppelin fan deeply appreciates this sift.

What struck me about this movie is how these 3 guys, legends in their own right, appeared at times in total awe of eachother. My bad for stereotyping the "rock god" persona. I guess it's the ability to say "yep..im good..but i can do better...and learn more" is one of the driving forces behind people like this.
