Most Overrated: Jimmy Page
Most Underrated: Terry Kath (I am serious, listen to the CTA album, or the solo on 25 or 6 to 4).
Jimmy Page is king and you know it. It's just that he was more of a studio guy than a live guy. I always get a chuckle out of Page's chutzpah. He's perfectly willing to go out on stage, blow every note of a solo, and then go on strutting around like nothing happened. He gives hope to those of us with less than refined chops. If he can get away with it in public, so can we.
