Jimmy Page and Robert Plant
Jimmy Page and Robert Plant are as notorious for the music they made together as they are for their rock star antics. Ex-Yarbirds guitarist Page and then 20-year-old singer Plant first started working together in the seminal rock band Led Zeppelin in 1968. Together with bassist John Paul Jones and drummer John Bonham, the band became the most popular rock band in the world in a little over seven years, selling over 50 million albums in the days before the Internet and MTV. Around the same time, rumors also started to spin of the band misbehaving with groupies, trashing hotel rooms and calling themselves golden gods. The dream ended when Led Zeppelin broke up in 1980, but Page and Plant have remained on the music scene, for better (Plant's solo recordings) or for worse (Page's collaboration with Whitesnake's David Coverdale). Before Page started reworking Zeppelin tunes with the Black Crowes, he and Plant reunited in 1994 to rehash their old gems on "No Quarter," go on a blaze of glory tour, and release an original album "Walking Into Clarksdale."
