The Very Young Jimmy Page – Great clip of James Page at I would say age 14 ? playing some Skiffle Music with his mates. Very odd they all seem very bright and articulate as the host Huw Wheldon peppers them with inane questions. The one kid even made his own stand-up bass which is incredible on it’s own! Page strums and strums showing no sign of the brilliance to come but at the end I think he makes Zoso sign or something. Where it all began, click on the picture to watch the video.

Orange AD5 Watt Tube Combo – This classic was originally available in the early 2000s and only produced in very limited numbers. Since then it has become a real collectors piece, even being listed in Aspen Pittman’s ‘Groove Tubes’ book. It has a classic vintage amp character, and at at such a low power is ideal to record with, or simply get those great live cranked sounds in your bedroom without annoying your neighbours (too much).
