James Patrick "Jimmy" Page, OBE (born 9 January 1944) is an English musician, songwriter and record producer who achieved international success as the guitarist and leader of the rock band Led Zeppelin.
Page began his career as a studio session musician in London and, by the mid-1960s, had become the most sought-after session guitarist in England. He was a member of the Yardbirds from 1966 to 1968. In late 1968, he founded Led Zeppelin.
Page is widely considered to be one of the greatest and most influential guitarists of all time. Rolling Stone magazine has described Page as "the pontiff of power riffing" and ranked him number 3 in their list of the "100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time". In 2010, he was ranked number two in Gibson's list of "Top 50 Guitarists of All Time" and, in 2007, number four on Classic Rock's "100 Wildest Guitar Heroes". He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice; once as a member of the Yardbirds (1992) and once as a member of Led Zeppelin (1995). Page has been described by Uncut as "rock's greatest and most mysterious guitar hero." Los Angeles Times magazine voted Jimmy Page the 2nd Greatest Guitarist of all time.
Before the name Jimmy Page became synonymous with hard rock guitar, the guitarist was a much sought-after session player in London — appearing on a variety of artists' recordings. Some were well known (the Kinks, the Who, etc.), but quite a few were obscurities — which serves as the basis for the 20-track No Introduction Necessary [Deluxe Edition].
The last 6 tracks that close out the collection are taken from the obscure 1970 Screaming Lord Sutch recording, Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends. Overall, not a bad compilation of Page's early playing. Among the musicians accompanying Page on the album are John Paul Jones on bass, Albert Lee on guitar, Keith de Groot featured on vocals, Glem Cattini on drums, Chris Hughes on tenor sax, and Nicky Hopkins on piano.
