Founder of one of the
most influential and successful rock bands of all time, legendary Led
Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has nevertheless remained an enigma. 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.
