Jimmy Page is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most influential guitarists in the history of rock music. His career began as a session musician in London in the mid-1960s, and he quickly became one of the most sought-after guitarists in Britain. He played on hit records for artists such as The Kinks, The Who, and Donovan and produced sessions for other bands.

1966 Page joined the Yardbirds, one of the era's most famous British rock bands. He played lead guitar alongside Jeff Beck, and the two guitarists formed a formidable partnership. The Yardbirds had several hits with Page in the band, including "Heart Full of Soul" and "Over Under Sideways Down."

1968, Page left the Yardbirds to form his band, Led Zeppelin. Led Zeppelin quickly became one of the world's biggest and most successful rock bands. Page was the band's primary songwriter and musical director, and his guitar playing was crucial to Led Zeppelin's sound. Led Zeppelin released eight studio albums during their career, all of which were commercial and critical successes.

Led Zeppelin disbanded in 1980 after the death of drummer John Bonham. Page continued to make music throughout the 1980s and 1990s, collaborating with artists such as Robert Plant, David Coverdale, and Puff Daddy. He has also released several solo albums.

Page is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (both as a member of the Yardbirds and Led Zeppelin) and the UK Music Hall of Fame. He has also been awarded the CBE by the Queen of England for his services to music.
