Our recent story about Jimmy Page's five best guitar solos as a member of the Yardbirds got us thinking about another legendary pre-Led Zeppelin recording featuring Page. This project, however, features all four members of Led Zeppelin — Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham — recording together before there even was a Led Zeppelin.

Before he wielded the hammer of the gods — and a Les Paul — as a member of mighty Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page was a Telecaster-wielding Yardbird. Today we turn on our sites on Page's best guitar work with his former band.

Ever want to know what an early Led Zeppelin concert experience was like? We've got you covered. Below, you can check out some video from a March 17, 1969, Led Zeppelin TV appearance. In the US, their self-titled debut album was almost three months old; however, it wouldn't be released in the UK for another two weeks.

The new book, The Stories Behind Every Led Zeppelin Song, is available now at the Guitar World Online Store.
