Jimmy Page: The Anthology

A feast for guitar lovers, this luxurious scrapbook surveys wonders from the archives of Jimmy Page, the Led Zeppelin guitar hero. It's bursting with photos and personal ephemera, and not just of the legend's storied Les Pauls, Danelectros and double-neck cherry Gibsons. Dig the star-to-be with a rockabilly pompadour; session logs from his days as an axe-man for hire for the likes of Burt Bacharach, Donovan and Van Morrison and Them; and his 60-year-old sheet music of Chuck Berry songs. This treasury boasts lively new memories penned by Page (the first time he saw an audience wave lighters was when Zep played "Stairway to Heaven" in Montreal in the early '70s) and a welcome commitment to, in Page's words, photographing guitars with "shots and angles that nobody had come up with before." --Alan Scherstuhl, freelance writer and editor
