JIMMY PAGE forma su propia bandaAnte las negativas de Robert Plant de reunir de nuevo a Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page anuncia que está formando su propia banda y que planea hacer una gira interpretando canciones de todos los proyectos en los que ha participado.
Durante un encuentro con la prensa en Londres con motivo de la nueva reedicion de "Led Zeppelin IV", Page ha adelantado que ya está escogiendo a los músicos que le acompañarán. "Algunos de ellos serán nuevos para vosotros. Todavía no les he reunido. Nos juntaremos el año próximo", ha avanzado, tal y como recoge Rolling Stone.
"Y si salgo de gira otra vez, tocaré material de toda mi trayectoria. Volveré a mis primeros años, incluyendo a los Yarbirds, e incluso podría haber algunas canciones nuevas también. También planeo tocar versiones instrumentales de canciones de Zeppelin como 'Dazed and Confused' y cosas así", ha explicado.

Page met with a select group of reporters to preview his deluxe remastering job on the band's fourth and fifth albums, 1971's "Led Zeppelin IV" and "Houses Of The Holy", which are coming on October 28. When asked by a NME.com reporter whether the process of going back to the band's original tapes made him want to reunite LED ZEPPELIN, he said, "I don't think it looks as though that's a possibility or on the cards, so there's not much more I can say about that. I'm not going to give a detail-by-detail account of what one person says or another person says. All I can say is it doesn't look likely, does it?" When pressed as to whether the hold out in a ZEP reunion was Robert Plant, a terse Jimmy Page snapped: "I've just said it doesn't look very likely."
Page — who hasn't toured as a solo act since 1988 — spoke about his prospects for hitting the road. "If I was to play again it would be with musicians that would be… some of the names might be new to you," he said. "I haven't put them together yet but I'm going to do that next year. If I went out to play, I would play material that spanned everything from my recording career right back to my very, very early days with THE YARDBIRDS. There would certainly be some new material in there as well…"
He continued: "I love playing live, I really do. Live concerts are always an interesting challenge because it means you can always change things as you're playing every night. You can make it even more of an adventure. I would play all of the things I'm known to play — instrumental versions of 'Dazed And Confused' etcetera, etcetera…"
