(Gibson) Comb the annals of Jimmy Page interviews and you'll find that the notoriously elusive Led Zeppelin guitarist has a pretty cool take on the world. The 67-year-old first picked up a guitar at age 12 and has been at work on it ever since, playing high-profile session work for The Who, The Kinks and Van Morrison, among others, before joining the seminal London group, The Yardbirds.Of course, Page's biggest imprint was made in Led Zeppelin from 1968 to 1980.
