On July 14th 2011, rock legend Jimmy Page launched his first official website.
In addition to the usual discography etc, the new site offers the fan a detailed history of Page’s work from The Yardbirds, Led Zeppelin and beyond. Curated by Page himself, the site is a treasure trove for fans and musical history buffs alike, containing a complete archive of photos, live dates that Page has played (including complete setlists wherever possible) and much more.
A special ‘On This Day’ section has plans to feature unseen video and audio, as well as anecdotes personally written by Page. This section will likely be the site’s big draw, since there will be no archiving. Each of the daily featured items will be available for reading/streaming for 24 hours only.
Users are required to register before viewing the site, but in exchange for an email address, there’s hours of reading and viewing pleasure within. All details are kept confidentally, with only the users’ chosen log-in name visible on the site.
