Jimmy Page, legendary guitar hero of Led Zeppelin, turns 64(!) today. Zep are best known as heavy metal icons, but I think the album of theirs that holds up best is "Led Zeppelin III." IMHO that album contains some of the best folk-rock ever recorded.
Page now sports his natural gray/white hair, looking very much like rock's elder statesman.

With all due respect to Jimmy, I never was on the Zep bandwagon when I was a teenager and still don't get it now that I'm 55. He did write a nice score for a Charles Bronson movie and played well. "Hey Hey What Can I Do" is a decent song, but I'd never take it along to a desert island.
