Hi,

In the special with Jack White, Jimmy explains much about the opening and the run of this song ... and I thought it made the song better. But there isn't a whole lot of LZ that I don't like, or a "solo" that I prefer, though Jimmy is actually shy about discussing "solos" ... or JPJ and RP would probably knock some sense into his brain, about leaving them behind! Bonzo would probably throw the drums at him ... and say ... you play it yourself!

Again, "solos" are not what the whole piece of music was created for, and thinking that a "solo" is the song, is sad for me. The rest of it all is meaningless ... and in my book ... I don't think so! Again, this is where DT needs to do something about that guitar that is ignoring the rest of the band! It's hurting DT and has for the last, maybe, 10 years.
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

I've never been the biggest LZ fan in truth. They were one of the bands that pushed me towards prog rock. I think it's because they were coming from a blues direction and I never saw that as particularly interesting. 
Another guitarist that doesn't do a lot for me is Hendrix so I suspect that guitar is not my thing. I do like Blackmore possibly because he subverts the whole blues thing. I supect you have to have an enormous amount of talent to do that successfully and Blackmore has no peers in that regards. Stargazer will always be my 'favourite' example of that. Crazy genius stuff. By that time Page's efforts were sounding very tired imo.

Nowadays whenever I listen to Stuck in Time by The Living Tombstone I always skip to the guitar solo. :v
