Book and Movie Reports by Ed

Movie Report: It Might Get Loud "It Might Get Loud" is a fascinating documentary about legendary rock guitarists Jimmy Page, The Edge, and Jack White. (If you haven't heard of at least one of these guys, you can stop reading now.) These three may be from three different generations of rock, namely the 60s, 80s, and 00s, but each has an obsession about guitars and the music they make. Jimmy Page is best known as the lead guitarist of Led Zeppelin, a rock group that was on top from day one. They pretty much created heavy metal. Page is a master of the dynamic range possible in both acoustic and electric guitars, from delicate strumming to absolute hurricanes of sound, sometimes within the same song. In the movie, he starts playing some immediately recognizable riffs and you realize: this song that I know by heart? This is the guy who first created and played that song. And that song. And that song. Dozens. Hundreds. Amazing. Before this movie, I wasn't very familiar
