In this definitive and comprehensive biography of his life so far, Chris Salewicz draws on his own interviews with Page and those closest around him to unravel the man behind the mystery. Having sold over 300 million copies worldwide, Led Zeppelin was the biggest band of the ’70s and has been loved by the legions ever since. From his own conversations with Jimmy, the rest of Led Zeppelin, old girlfriends, tour managers and session musicians to name but a few, Salewicz reveals the many trials and tribulations which transformed the middle class boy from the Surrey suburbs into one of rock’s most enigmatic frontmen. Detailed, thrilling and expertly researched, Salewicz discovers a man who was prepared to die for his art; who justified heroin use so he could harness its narcotic focus whilst making albums, and who overcame numerous death threats during this time. A warrior magician, Salewicz delves into the many skeletons and eccentricities in Page’s closet, contextualising him against a background of London gangsters, deaths, and power struggles which Page has continued to rail against to this day, even within his own band. As entertaining as it is insightful, and from a writer who experienced first-hand the Led Zeppelin furore, this promises to be as close to a Jimmy Page autobiography as fans can get. Review: Sigh .. - I was sorry to get to the last page of this book. That’s always the best sign of a story enjoyed. I’ve discovered Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin later in life. As a teenager in the late 70s I was more into pop - David Cassidy, Marc Bolan, The Monkees and chart music. (Ironically I’d have been the right age for JP then!) All the boys I knew - and it was mainly boys - loved not just Led Zeppelin but were obsessed with Aleister Crowley. Now I think about it - my two best girlfriends were pretty obsessed too. But the music went over my head and I hated the way we’d all huddle round listening to the albums in someone’s bedroom - passing round a bottle of cough medicine which was the nearest thing to drugs in the 1970s in ‘troubled’ Northern Ireland. It was useful as the joss sticks burning used to set off my asthma. I do recall liking Stairway though. This all changed a few months ago when I read ‘Hammer of the Gods’ and I started re listening to the music. I was blown away as I suddenly ‘got’ Led Zeppelin - sexy, loud and exciting. Supremely talented and led by this beautiful man who always seemed to turn his guitar out to the audience so they could see just how clever he was. And I wanted to know more about him. This book has a huge amount of detail about his career - touching on his private life - but I suppose I probably want to know more of the private stuff. His eyes still twinkle and he is still a good -looking man. Does he still play the guitar as well as he did? Does it diminish with age? But I do know he loves cats, likes the name Scarlet(t) and refers to his old friend Robert Plant as a c word. He believes or believed in the occult and keeps himself to himself on tour. He’s also very clever and sadly was addicted to heroin - but luckily got off it before tragedy. This book takes you through his early life, his slightly precocious beginnings and the way he put the band together. Incredible really as who’d have known that 4 brilliant men could make such a sound!? Poor old John Paul Jones - slightly rejected by his band mates ‘after’ - while Plant and Page battled for top dog status, after the band had split. I think Plant is right to want to move on. Only the Stones can successfully still strut their stuff on stage at their ages - and that’s because they never stopped. I just can’t see Robert Plant in those skin tight jeans making those incredible sounds again. And do we really want to see LZ performing whilst sitting on stools - are you reading this The Eagles?) - but an acoustic LZ? Maybe. Anyway the book has it all - detail, (lots of it) insight and a degree of speculation. I think if I want more information on this fascinating man, I’d have to meet him! One correction - Plant’s birthday is referred to as 19th August - it’s the 20th same as mine! All in all the definitive documentary - oh hang on - one last thing to say. There was almost nothing said about watching Ann and Nancy Wilson play Stairway to Heaven? During their amazing performance - Jimmy Page looked absolutely delighted and all but nudged Robert Plant throughout. Was Plant crying with relief he wasn’t singing it? Was Jimmy Page wanting to leap up and rock out? What exactly was going through their heads at that stellar performance - of their song!? All this and more - I’d like to know! All I need now is to assemble those old friends, crack open the cough bottle and admire the candlewick bedspread (I have some flared jeans). Review: A real page turner - Book in very good condition, delivered on time, and so full of great content and well written.
