ne14t? Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 i always thought that ritchie was the better player of that time...and i still do. your thoughts? Hmmmm hard choice, Zeppelin and Deep Purple are two of my top classic bands, being addicted to hard rock and heavy metal the big three are like the foundation of the music for me. Zeppelin, Sabbath and Deep Purple is what I compare all the music I listen to, these guys started the heavy trend and I will thank them forever for it. They are all guitar gods in there respective bands and nothing could sway my choice on that. Oh ya I am Pagan so I believe in more then one god.

rct Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I thought Made In Japan was a sumptious buffet of georgeously overwrought stracaster through dimed Marshall sexy oozy goodness. Blackmore and I, even I was a kid, share dislike of middle pickups, my strats don't have one, he used a fake one, I didn't care about the hole and still don't. I missed the whole Zep thing, liked them, had some records, wasn't apes hit about them though. Both are Giants in their fields, like the songs we write and record it is hard to pick a favorite for any one reason or another. Both get all love and props and respect, and I would dearly love to have a cuppa and hang with both or either for a while. Page would prolly laugh if I said the internet is obsessed with how sloppy he plays. Blackmore is Grouchy, no? We'd get along fab! rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryUK Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 I'd say Blackmore. He's a more articulate player. Page was more of studio player; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SG FAN Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 None of the above. Tony Iommi is the king of bada** riffs. Blackmore and Page wrote great riffs, but Iommi's had more "balls" IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrNylon Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 For me, they are very close. I'd have to go with Jimmy Page. When I first heard Good Times, Bad Times on the first Led Zeppelin album, that nailed it from 1969. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy R Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 They are both great players for what they do.... I'm glad they are both around or I wouldn't have two great bands to listen to. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lagerfanny Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Mr Blackmore just edges it, but they're both quite good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I am quite a Jimmy fan and not a fan of Ritchie Blackmore as a rock guitarist, but I do tip my hat to his project, Blackmore's Night! Her voice is just beautiful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryUK Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I have to say. Page went up in my estimation when I saw 'It might get loud'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
