Jimmy Page

This book was very well received. The condition, the content & the timely delivery. A must have for any Jimmy Page fan. Brilliant in every sense.

A Great Music-Centered Biography

I came to this book not expecting much. I was very pleasantly surprised. The book is well written and informative, especially about Jimmy Page's musical influences. It has helped me understand Led Zeppelin's music much better, while gaining an appreciation for Page as a person. The author did a great job, particularly given the lack of cooperation from Page himself. I really liked this book.

Received the book so promptly that it made my head spin.

I was in shock with the swiftness I received my book and the book was in perfect order too. Thank you.

Great read

I recieved this book, and two days later was done with it. I could not stop reading it. Case's admiration for page really shows, and i think it's a good thing to a read a book by someone who shares your enthusiasm, instead of one that concentrates only on the bad aspects of his life. This book starts when he was a boy, and takes you up to the present. I really like the fact that it doesn't just focus on '68-80, like you'll see so many others do. It also doesn't just focus on the drug use, the wild parties and so on, it focuses on the man behind all the rumors, all the stories. You really get to see into the man many regard as the greatest of all time.

Finally! A book on "Pagey"

Go to any bookstore and look in the music section, and you'll see books on all the legendary rockers -- Lennon, Dylan, Hendrix, Elvis, Stones, Beatles, Doors, Clapton, Neil Young, Zep -- but this is the first book just about one of the all-time greats, Jimmy Page !! This book has everything -- great early photos, stories about all the session work he did in the early 60s like working with Tom Jones, and how he dated Dusty Springfield, all the great Yardbirds tours, and how he & Clapton used to hang together while they were both unknown, the first Zep tour opening for Vanilla Fudge, how they became huge in the 70s and Jimmy got into heroin, and right up until today, with his 5 kids, including the last one born 8 years ago! We got a chapter comparing all the English guitarists to Page -- not only Beck & Clapton, but Tony Iomni, Richie Blackmore, Brian May, David Gilmour (and quotes from Eddie Van Halen, Joe Perry & Ace Frehly on how Page influenced them). There are quotes from Jimmy on what Zep really thought about Sabbath. For Jimmy Page fans like myself, this is one damn great book, I couldn't put it down!
