Jimmy spent the first two nights after Led Zeppelin`s debut at the Whisky A-Go-Go in Catherine`s house. After that, the band went up to San Francisco, then Jimmy and Pamela Des Barres relationship started at the Hyatt House.
Catherine calls him `pre-Raphaelite angelic faced` in her book `Dandelion, Memoir of a Free Spirit`. She even has a picture of Sir Page in her MySpace profile which she called `the beautiful Mr. Page`.
From her book "Dandelion":
"I had plenty of handsome suitors, but no one really had my heart until I encountered the ethereal Jimmy Page" "When Jimmy went on stage a young man had taken his seat at our table and tried to chat me up. When Jimmy came offstage he strolled up and announced to the swain, `Number nine, your time is up.` And he would-be beau scurried off in a huff. Ha! After all these years, Jimmy still had a jealous streak for me. We rode the limo back to the hotel, and I thought, `This is all happening so fast. Oh well, I`ll think about it later.` When we got to his room, we kissed like gods. No one has ever kissed me the way Jimmy did. He inhaled my breath, still stealing my soul; I could almost see the misty vapors passing between us. His breath and taste were still sweet as a baby`s, and as hot as high-voltage wire, but I couldn`t get into the moment. The imps and angels were looming in my head, spryly clattering, `Do you really want to start this? He`s off to London in the morning.` Nope, I wasn`t up for another potential heartache, but it sure felt dreamy. He could feel my vacillating doubt and whispered in his soft voice, `What do you want, my girl?` It was five in the morning, and I didn`t know. With a smile, I replied, `I think I better go before the sun comes up.` We got dressed, and he walked me down to the waiting limo. I blew kisses until we turned the block, and that`s the last time I saw the ever-dazzling Mr. Page."
