: Outside Counsel

By Bill Altreuter

A KRAC outing to "It Might Get Loud" last night, a movie I recommend to anyone who likes electric guitar. My problem with both Led Zeppelin and U2 is really with the singers (and the lyrical content)-- this was straight-on guitar, and that was great. I suppose Page is the highlight: he's Jimmy Frickin' Page, and he knows it, so even though he looks like somebody's old hippie uncle, he shows up for the session in a black frock coat and a lacy shirt. He can still play. I liked it when The Edge (seriously, David Howell Evans, if you'd use your own name it would be a lot less embarrassing)shows him a lick. "Are you sure?" asks Page, then nails it. It was also fun watching Page watch Jack White, who is essentially channeling Led Zep, then picking up the riff. Great archival footage of all three, too.
