Jimmy Page is an English guitarist and record producer from Heston, Middlesex, who began his career as a London session musician in the early 1960s before forming the rock band Led Zeppelin in 1968. His musical style blends blues, folk and hard rock, characterised by complex riff-based compositions, use of alternate tunings and extensive studio experimentation with overdubs and production techniques, which contributed to developments in rock guitar technique and studio recording approaches.
