"You know, when you read anything about Zep at that point, Jimmy Page was saying that the Clash were really good. My friend said, ?Too bad the punk rock scene wasn?t too kind to Zeppelin. One of the guys in the Clash goes, ?Zeppelin? Listen. Just the mere sight of one of their shitty album covers makes me wanna fuckin? puke!?? [Laughs] Oh, fuck man.
I mean, that was almost the same thing when Nirvana came out to backlash against Guns N? Roses, know what I mean? Guns really was the modern day Zeppelin, and Stones, for that matter, with the supermodels and the jet airplanes, the fuckin? parties. That?s Stones and Zep, man. And the Nirvana comes out and their like, ?Go fuck yourselves, assholes.? Music?s just changing, you know?"
