Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page has shared a classic photo of himself shirtless with an unzipped jacket on Instagram.
He wrote, “#OnThisDay in 1973, Led Zeppelin played in Lyon, France 🇫🇷
⠀⠀
By this point in time, the French had become quite passionate about seeing their music for free and we had cut the French tour short due to nil security at the concerts and a fighting rabble inside the building.
⠀⠀
However, we’d been cajoled into playing this as our last date of the French tour. It was so chaotic getting into the building and, although the audience were really enthusiastic, the whole of this episode had left such a sour taste that we didn’t play in France again with Led Zeppelin until Paris in the 1980 tour.

Page also recently wrote, “#OnThisDay in 1985, ‘Scream For Help’, a Michael Winner film, was released. ⠀⠀
John Paul Jones had been drafted in to do the soundtrack and he asked me to play on it. We wrote ‘Crack Back’ and ‘Spaghetti Junction’ and both pieces appeared in the film and soundtrack album.”
