zed lep Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I have underlined the text to which I want to draw your attention. I wonder if Jimmy will be turning up in person to this display? If so, there's a chance for our London based members to hang around and see the great man in person. Source:- NME 23 October 2010 Jimmy Page by Jimmy Page', a limited edition photographic autobiography from the Led Zeppelin guitarist, has sold out despite not being officially released yet. The book – which cost £495 – is 512 pages long and features over 650 images of Page from throughout his career. Selling out through pre-orders, the hefty book from Genesis Publications, is bound in leather and wrapped in silk and was compiled by Page himself, who also wrote the text. A selection of pictures from the book, taken by photographers such as Kate Simon, Neal Preston, Ross Halfin and Pennie Smith will be on display on November 5-6 at Elms Lester Painting Rooms in Covent Garden, London. Source:- Londontown.com Elms Lesters PaintingRooms Address: Elms Lesters Painting Rooms, 135 Flitcroft Street, Covent Garden, WC2H 8DH Telephone: 020 7836 6747 Elms Lesters Painting Rooms are housed in an extraordinary space, purpose built as a painting studio in 1904. Since 1984 the gallery has been specialising in contemporary artists who began their careers working on the street. The building still serves its original purpose as there's not only an exhibition space here but artists rooms and facilities for artists to work in residence. These affiliated artists often produce site specific work which is displayed in the gallery. Close to theatre land, the scenic painting studios have been used to create masterpieces for theatre backdrops for more than a hundred years.

SuperDave Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Thanks for the photo Steve. Jimmy looks good, but would look even better with a guitar strapped around his neck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
