Heartbreaker (Jimmy Page)
Jimmy Page’s groundbreaking, unaccompanied guitar solo from the Led Zeppelin II album explained note for note. Jimmy played this really fast but here I explain it slow and easy, piece by piece.
Remember Paul Gilbert’s “Pizza Theory,” pretty sure he wrote about it in a column, I hope he doesn’t mind me paraphrasing: “Learn guitar like you eat pizza, in manageable bites, and slices. Jamming the whole pizza in your mouth just doesn’t work.”
Feel free to take a month or longer to learn this one. And learn only one section, or one slice at a time!
