Jimmy Page

The rock band Led Zeppelin was founded by Jimmy Page. But, surprise! He was also a member of The Yardbirds (as were Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck). He was one of the most sought-after session guitarists in Britain as a twenty-year-old in the 1960s. Page was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on two occasions.
