Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted January 25, 2008 Moderators Share Posted January 25, 2008 I disagree on the latter. Page and others before him were playing riffs as they are in modern metal long before Iommi.

Members TJM2482 Posted January 26, 2008 Members Share Posted January 26, 2008 Omar Rodriguez-LopezHe's pretty damn original, but I would say he sounds a lot like Fripp, especially on the new album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TJM2482 Posted January 26, 2008 Members Share Posted January 26, 2008 My vote for the most original, wildly popular, iconic player goes to...Dr. Brian May.Widely popular and iconic? Brian May? :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JRBain Posted January 26, 2008 Members Share Posted January 26, 2008 Protective clothing is really needed in this thread, I've never come across so much contaminated bull{censored} Listen to Page playing Whole Lotta Love and others. The concept is there. Iommi upped the gain and downed the tuning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Jimmy, but original is not a word that belongs in sentences associated with him:wave: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we all bow to your snappy one-line dismissals of articulate arguments. Contrary is not the same as clever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as well my man RC is both, then. Even when he's wrong. Which, in this case, he isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
