Question what is with the people saying that jimmy page is satanic? because of zoso ? also what do you think is his best guitar solo?
Answer The satanic thing was basically just another inappropriate label for Page. Page gained negative press from him openly mentioning his fascination for Crowley, the occult, black magick, etc. Page was a devotee of such occult practices, but it had nothing to do with Satan at all. Satanism is a completely separate thing altogether, and is a religion, not just a thing to do.
Guitar solo - hmmm. If I had to choose, I suppose I'd have to go with the main solo from "Achilles Last Stand". Close runners-up would have to be that of "Stairway To Heaven" and possibly "Heartbreaker". Too many to mention, it's hard to pick a top few, though I think the ALS solo wins out - Page even mentioned in an interview that, upon hearing the solo while remastering the track, "My God that was brilliant." So a testimonial from the man himself.
