Speaker For The Diodes - June 3rd, 2009

"My session work was invaluable. At one point I was playing at least three sessions a day, six days a week! And I rarely ever knew in advance what I was going to be playing. But I learned things even on my worst sessions -- and believe me, I played on some horrendous things. I finally called it quits after I started getting calls to do Muzak. I decided I couldn't live that life anymore; it was getting too silly. I guess it was destiny that a week after I quit doing sessions Paul Samwell-Smith left The Yardbirds, and I was able to take his place. But being a session musician was good fun in the beginning -- the studio discipline was great. They'd just count the song off, and you couldn't make any mistakes." -- Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page (b. 1944-01-09)

My cat, her fur is full of cobwebs and now she wants to cuddle. What have you gotten into, Perrine?
