...just a little late in response...no prob's; I noticed it also when I posted it...He is very Gracious, if you ever have a chance, I hope you get to meet him...very welcoming and friendly; on a slighlty different note, if you ever want to try a new restaurant, you may want to try the "Yardbird" in Hong Kong....Here is a menu for Restaurant Yardbird, the Hot Spot... http://www.womguide....orthy/yardbird1 ...Jim McCarty is also a Vegetarian if so interested, few photos of him in support of this... http://www.girlandth.../gtk/page4.html ...just for fun with the Yardbirds...my fav's too...

...In addition to this Photo, here is a set of Jeff Beck Photos, in same Jean Jacket, pictured above. The photos are conflicting as to where exactly, Philly? or Chateau Mormont? Jeff Beck Photos on Tour '68 http://www.myspace.c...%22%3A50724089} http://www.fotobaron...-group/68491-7a another Link of Led Zeppelin Signing.... Atlantic had given away a small chunk of the farm to Led Zeppelin. Peter Grant went back to the Plaza Hotel and called Jimmy to come to New York to sign the deal. Then, perhaps with joy in their hearts, Grant and Weiss called on Clive Davis, then president of Columbia Records, whose Epic subsidiary had the rights for the Yardbirds (and Jeff Beck) in America. Jimmy of course felt that Epic was an inept and exploitative label, while Clive Davis had considered the Yardbirds one of his pet projects and was confident that Jimmy Page's new band - the word on the street was they were hot - would be on Epic. It was the first time Peter and Clive Davis had met, and they talked friendly music gossip until Davis finally said, "Well, aren't we going to talk about Jimmy Page?" And Grant said, "Oh no, we've already signed the Zeppelin to Atlantic."

...Yardbirds with P.R. Shankar..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J__-K6EAfE

...yes, it was bit doubtful, but these years are also the "art school Years", I think.... The Asian Music Circle in London in that era promoted R. Shankar's "Musical Performances" (previously he was a Stage Artist)....most noteable bookings at the Royal Festival Hall beginning in '58....I will have closer look at year of '61 and '62, as '60 appears to be bit before Pagey's time...

Here is a poster Link/Photo of the Edinburgh International Festival Aug. 18-September 7, 1963 http://www.picturethiscollection.com/products/detail/000003426/page1/

.....For 1963 I found this information from Official Autobio. of R. Shankar...scanned Text Link:

...tks SAJ for these, I searched for this earlier along with Man-Pop but not far enough to '77...I will look into some further publications, if there is any further commentary, please post it..

...Could this photo be of Lynn Collins - Steven Tyler's companion who left him to accompany Page after the Boston Tea Party? ...From my search "Lynn Collins" has been discussed somewhat steadily, by no photo so far, perhaps Lynn Collins has "finally" made her way to Zep Timeline? Official Site Timeline Link Boston Tea Party Photos '69 Jimmy Page Backstage/Companion Lynn Collins? http://www.ledzeppelin.com/image-galleries/led-zeppelin/1968-1969 Thanks all..

...MSG - this sure is special...I can only imagine what it means to you and Mike being there in that special moment in time...all of you so lucky...

...very welcome MSG; - here is another video of Mike Quashie - similar to the one your posted earlier (I think the link is gone in your original post) - here in this video Mike Quashie/Report talk about Led Zeppelin and others...

....Thank You Sam, Walter Walker, AEN27, and MSG for such wonderful and informative (never heard before) stories.....it is truly fascinating to hear from artists who had good fortune to be around the mighty Zep... MSG, that video about Mike Quashie is really touching and warm beyond words.....Here is an article from New York Times: Mike Quashie recalls Zeppelin days and Jimmy Page donating guitar..... Limbo King Finds a New Home and an Old Friend By COREY KILGANNON Published: March 13, 2010 http://query.nytimes...750C0A9669D8B63 ....and Bonzo's Dog Band, they do have an autobiography, I wonder if there are further details, if anyone has read this book... tks.
