I have to agree with you on that, Zeppelin was the pinnacle of rock, or anything for that matter.

Anyways, yeah i did know the Rhoads was classically trained, and i also knew that he was in Quiet Riot briefly. However, i didn't know he was drug an alcohol free, he must've had great willpower, bieng with Ozzy and all. He wrote the Over the Mountain riff while the others were out drinking, that much i knew.

To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.
