Doddy Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Jeff Beck. I've always thought that Page was often quite sloppy (Plus,I'm not a fan of Zeppelin). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LemonCello Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Just for the outrageous kecks he used to wear (Song Remains the Same) - the title goes to the one and only Jimmy Page! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykesbass Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Neither of them would win the X Factor just proving that music should never be a competition. (very minor rant over) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteb Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Depends on how you look at it - Beck purely as a guitar player but Page for producing the best music! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollywoodrox Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Tricky they are both Icons. Jimmy has made a huge mark in popular music I would have to pick jeff , if its difficult I think who would I like to be? And it would be cool to be beck He shreds like mad, is a great fusion player, is in great shape has great hair and plays awesome guitars Has just played onstage with the worlds greatest rock n roll band and was in the yardbirds He is the ultimate rock star.

Pete Academy Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Beck all the way. Page is definitely sloppy and a bit of a widdler. I wish I'd written Kashmir, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philparker Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 You don't have to decide, they're both icons of British rock and what one of them does slightly better than the other, shouldn't relegate the other! Having said that I would say that JB is technically the better guitar player and JP had the better presence with genius compositional skills.

Bassman Steve Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Jeff Beck for his absolute mastery of the guitar. I'm afraid Jimmy Page leaves me completely cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul torch Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 Think they are both important but for me it has to be Jeff Beck for keeping his guitar playing moving forward. Star Cycle blew me away when I first heard it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
