Jimmy Page, born January 9, 1944, in Heston, England, is the legendary guitarist and founder of Led Zeppelin. After work as a top-tier session guitarist and a stint with The Yardbirds, he formed Led Zeppelin in 1968 with Robert Plant, John Bonham, and John Paul Jones. Their debut Led Zeppelin (1969) and classics like Led Zeppelin II (1969), Led Zeppelin IV (1971), and Physical Graffiti (1975) revolutionized rock with Page’s riff-heavy, mystical sound. Iconic tracks like “Stairway to Heaven,” “Whole Lotta Love,” and “Kashmir” defined a generation. As the band’s producer, Page blended blues, folk, and Eastern influences into sprawling soundscapes. Following the band’s dissolution in 1980, he pursued projects like The Firm and Page & Plant. Inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice, Page is also known for his dedication to preserving Zeppelin’s legacy. He remains a symbol of guitar mastery and sonic innovation.
