Led Zeppelin co-founder and guitarist Jimmy Page has shared a recent photos of him and bassist John Paul Jones on his official Instagram page, and revealed the stories of the photos with his followers.
Here is what he wrote:
“#OnThisDay in 2013, I went to Berlin in Germany to the Echo Awards. ⠀⠀
The first one of which was in 1992 held by the Deutsche Phono-Akademie and on this, the 21st anniversary, they kindly awarded @LedZeppelin the ‘International Lifetime Achievement Award’. This was the first time that any group had received this award.
⠀⠀
During our stay, Warners Germany gave us the most amazing awards for the sales of Celebration Day where they had made large formats of the Shepard Fairey artwork in a 3D presentation with LED lights along the Thames embankment – I have to say it was pretty impressive.
⠀⠀
The picture features the Cinderellas, John Paul Jones and myself.”

He also shared The Rolling Stones’ One Hit single and wrote what he thinks about it:
“#OnThisDay in 1986, ‘One Hit (To the Body)’ was released on The Rolling Stones’ Dirty Work album.
@ronniewood had got in touch with me while I was staying at the Plaza Hotel in New York and invited me to come to the studio and lay down some guitar on a track of @officialkeef. I was really up for this idea as I had done some studio work before on a track playing with Keith at Ronnie’s studio at The Wick in Richmond, England.
⠀⠀
Actually, the session was not for Keith’s album, it was for @therollingstones, and I overdubbed a number of solos over the track. I think it worked out pretty good. Keith kindly sent me a magnum of champagne after the session.”
