LED ZEPPELIN's JIMMY PAGE Says He's Making A Quick Recovery

Virgin Media reports that LED ZEPPELIN guitarist Jimmy Page has reassured fans he is making a speedy recovery after fracturing his finger.

The recent accident caused the postponement of the band's eagerly awaited first concert in two decades.

Jimmy, 63, who was honoured with a Living Legend Award at the Classic Rock Roll of Honour awards in London on Monday night (November 5),told BBC Radio 5 Live he was walking in the dark when he tripped over a stone slab.

"I didn't just come down on my hand, I came down on other parts of my body as well. But of course it was the hand that had a bit of an injury to it," he said.

"It's got a fracture in the little finger of the left hand, which is a nuisance because it's really needed. It's just going to take a little while for it to heal, that's all.

"It's not permanent damage. I've broken fingers before, a lot worse than this."

AEROSMITH frontman Steven Tyler paid tribute to the guitarist, who also received video messages from LED ZEPPELIN's Robert Plant and guitar legend Les Paul.
