Robert Plant Knocked Over By Crazed Fan In Argentina

Jimmy Page: The Post-Zeppelin Years
In bookstores now is Light and Shade: Conversations With Jimmy Page.

Jimmy Page: “L.A. Was Like Sodom And Gomorrah!”
In stores next week is “Light And Shade: Conversations With Jimmy Page,” a book taken from several interviews that Led Zeppelin’s leader did with Guitar World’s Editorial Director Brad Tolinski over the years.

Jimmy Page On The Violin Bow: “Whatever Squeaks I Made Sort Of Intrigued Me”
Page used the bow on a few Yardbirds songs: “Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Sailor” and “Glimpses” from their 1967 album, “Little Games,” and then on Led Zeppelin’s 1969 self-titled debut (“Dazed And Confused” and “How Many More Times”). But he wasn’t the first British rock guitarist to take the bow to his axe.
