Re: Jugula

["Wyatt Brake" <wyattbrake@xxxxxxxxx>]

I would agree that there's not much lead guitar work on Jugula.  I
think one could say that Roy Harper's music is kind of an acquired
taste, and I was definitely a little disappointed when I first got
this, hoping to hear some great Page acoustic playing.  It's a bit of
a tough listen - exponentially tougher than Walking into Clarksdale,
in my opinion.  Totally different than Death Wish II, of course,
purely because this is Page playing on a Harper album rather than Page
working on something for himself (in the case of DW2).

I'm not that familiar with Page's Lucifer Rising material - I've only
heard snippets - but supposedly a lot of the DW2 stuff bears a lot of
resemblance to the Lucifer Rising stuff.

Here's Wikipedia's entry... I would wager the author was probably a Jimmy fan...
