Oh, Please... not this again. Jimmy Page gets all sorts of credit for stuff he didn't do. (And he doesn't seem to discourage the rumors, either.) Even J.P. Jones had to debunk the gossip that Page played the lead guitar on Donovan's Hurdy Gurdy Man.... You Really Got me is totally Dave Davies, and his solo in She's Got Everything is better than what Page could ever have done for that song. I've even had people try to convince me that Page played Keith Richard's solo on Sympathy for the Devil, which is absurd if one listens to the lead guitar played on Between The Button, Satanic Majesties, Let It Bleed, etc. not to mention the beginnings of the solo documented by Godard.

Overreacting to a casual comment: who, me?
