A BREAKDOWN OF THE ARTIST/S :-

Born James Patrick Page, 9 January 1944, Heston, Middlesex, England. One of rock's most gifted and distinctive guitarists, Page began his professional career during the pre-beat era of the early 60s. He was a member of several groups, including Neil Christian's Crusaders and Carter Lewis And The Southerners, the latter of which was led by the popular songwriting team Carter And Lewis (John Carter and Ken Lewis). Page played rousing solos on several releases by Carter/Lewis prot‚g‚s, notably the McKinleys' "Sweet And Tender Romance", and the guitarist quickly became a respected session musician. He appeared on releases by Lulu, Them, Chris Farlowe, Tom Jones and Dave Berry, as well as scores of less renowned acts such as, Wayne Gibson, the Primitives, First Gear, Gregory Phillips, the Lancastrians, Les Fleur De Lys, the Factotums, Twice As Much, the Masterminds, the Fifth Avenue, but his best-known work was undertaken for producer Shel Talmy. Page appeared on sessions for the Kinks and the Who, joining an ‚lite band of young studio musicians who included Nicky Hopkins, John Paul Jones and Bobby Graham. The guitarist completed a solo single, "She Just Satisfies", in 1965, and although it suggested a frustration with his journeyman role, he later took up an A&R position with Immediate Records, where he produced singles for Nico and John Mayall.

Having refused initial entreaties, Page finally agreed to join the Yardbirds in 1966 and he remained with this groundbreaking attraction until its demise two years later. The guitarist then formed Led Zeppelin, with whom he forged his reputation. His propulsive riffs established the framework for a myriad of tracks - "Whole Lotta Love", "Rock 'N' Roll", "Black Dog", "When The Levee Breaks" and "Achilles Last Stand" - now established as rock classics, while his solos have set benchmarks for a new generation of guitarists. His acoustic technique, featured on "Black Mountain Side" and "Tangerine", is also notable, while his work with Roy Harper, in particular on Stormcock (1971), was also among the finest of his career. Page's recordings since Led Zeppelin's dissolution have largely been ill-focused. He contributed the soundtrack to Michael Winner's film Death Wish II, while the Firm, a collaboration with Paul Rodgers, formerly of Free and Bad Company, was equally disappointing. However, a 1988 release, Outrider, did much to re-establish his reputation, with contributions from Robert Plant, Chris Farlowe and Jason Bonham, the son of Zeppelin's late drummer, John. The guitarist then put considerable effort into remastering that group's revered back-catalogue. Coverdale/Page was a successful but fleeting partnership with the former Whitesnake singer in 1993, but it was his reunion with Robert Plant for the Unledded project, and an album of new material in 1998, that really captured the public's imagination. Page also achieved an unlikely UK hit single in August 1998, collaborating with Puff Daddy on "Come With Me", from the Godzilla soundtrack. In 2000, Page teamed up with the Black Crowes for a series of highly-praised US concerts. The two final shows at the L.A. Amphitheater were captured for posterity on Live At The Greek

THE VINYL VISUALLY :- On initial inspection of this piece of vinyl I cannot see any areas of immediate concern. The vinyl sits perfectly flat on the turntable so there are no nasty warps to worry about. The vinyl still retains its just pressed quality, full of deep shine and lustre. I have not noted anything that would affect play. A lovely piece of vinyl. Near Mint visually.

THE VINYL PLAY GRADED SIDE ONE :- The playgrading of the vinyl reveals no lessening in the sound quality whatsoever. It lives up to its visual grading. There is virtually no surface noise. The sound quality is high with a full dynamic range and very detailed sound. I feel certain this single has barely if ever been played and stored well over the years. I would grade the audio playback as Near Mint condition.

THE VINYL PLAY GRADED SIDE TWO :- The playgrading of the vinyl reveals no lessening in the sound quality whatsoever. It lives up to its visual grading. There is virtually no surface noise. The sound quality is high with a full dynamic range and very detailed sound. I feel certain this single has barely if ever been played and stored well over the years.
