I insist on the same. That video of Jimmy Page in 1993. They are the words of itself Page, is not a message on twitter or a radio interview where Richie himself said ... in this video Jimmy Page says the magic words. Yes, a long time ago, but damn, you know how are these elite musicians, this is not about being the best friends ever and forever, is having a friendship and respect for their work/music.

Richie has played with Jimmy Page, Bryan May (He said That Richie is a great singer), Van Halen, Joey Perry, BB King (c'mon man, jamming with BB is already a recognition, no matter if he calls you Ricky Sombraro, remains a ****ing honor!), Slash (on several occasions), Eric Clapton (he collaborated on their first album), and was a good friend of Les, you know, Les Paul. He also played the last year with Dolly Parton and Zack Brown, I admit that it was somewhat bizarre but .. hey! It was fun as hell! and now .... with Buddy Guy.
Glastonbury Festival with Dolly
CMA Fest with Zack Brown
NAMM TEC Awards with Slash
Not bad for such an underrated guitarist, that now is only a shadow of what a day he was.
Keep Calm. It's Only Rock 'n' Roll.
