The All-Stars - "Down In The Boots," "L.A. Breakdown," "Steelin', "Piano
  "Shuffle," "Chuckles"
  In July 1965 Page produced these recordings with former members of Cyril
  Davies' All-Stars (Nicky Hopkins- piano; Cliff Barton- bass; Carlo
  Little- drums), along with Jeff Beck on guitar; the recordings have since
  been released on dozens of compilations (i.e. "White Boy Blues," etc.).
Burt Bacharach
  Page played on Bacharach's 1965 album "Hit Maker/Plays His Hits".
David Bowie
  Page played lead guitar on Bowie's 2nd single, "I Pity The Fool" (1965)
  (credited to The Manish Boys).
Eric Clapton - "Miles Road," "Tribute To Elmore," "Freight Loader," "Snake
  Drive," "Draggin' My Trail," "Choker," "West Coast Idea"
  In the summer of 1965 Page and Clapton jammed together at Page's home;
  Page recorded the jam but had no intention of ever releasing it; however,
  Immediate Records (Page's employer at the time) found out about the tapes
  and demanded that Page turn them over; Page reluctantly agreed, but only
  after adding overdubs of bass (by Bill Wyman), harmonica (by Mick
  Jagger), piano (by Ian Stewart), and drums (by Chris Winters-- possibly a
  psuedonym for Charlie Watts?); nonetheless, Clapton was extremely upset
  and it strained their relationship.
Joe Cocker
  Page played on Cocker's debut single (1964's "I'll Cry Instead"/ "Those
  Precious Words") and also contributed to several tracks on Cocker's 1968
  album "With A Little Help From My Friends" (including the title song).
Jackie DeShannon
  Page played on 4 tracks recorded in October 1964 ("Don't Turn Your Back
  On Me," "Be Good Baby," "I Remember The Boy" & "Dream Boy"); DeShannon
  would later sing backing vocals on Page's debut single, and the two would
  have a romantic relationship in 1964/65.  They also co-wrote several
  songs together in 1964/65.  Page reportedly wrote "Tangerine" about her.
Donovan
  Page once claimed that he never played with Donovan, although he is
  widely credited for playing on "Sunshine Superman" (1966).  Page is also
  often linked to "Hurdy Gurdy Man," but both Page and John Paul Jones
  (who played bass on the song) have said that the guitarist was actually
  Alan Parker.
The Everly Brothers
  Page contributed to various tracks on their "Two Yanks In England" album
  (1966).
Marianne Faithfull
  Faithfull claims that Page played on her big hit "As Tears Go By" as well
  as other recordings from the era.
Herman's Hermits
  Page claims that he never sessioned with them, but Peter Noone ('Herman')
  says Page played on "Silhouettes" and "Wonderful World" (1965).
Tom Jones
  It was been widely reported that Page played rhythm guitar on 1965's
  "It's Not Unusual" (with Jim Sullivan on lead), although Sullivan claims
  that Joe Moretti played lead while he (Sullivan) played rhythm.
The Kinks
  It is confirmed that Page played rhythm and/or 12-string guitar on
  various songs on The Kinks' debut album (1964), but he NEVER played
  lead guitar on any Kinks recordings.  Page has also been linked to
  "You Really Got Me," "All Day & All Of The Night," "Tired Of Waiting"
  and "I Need You," but this information has yet to be confirmed.
John Mayall and The Bluesbreakers
  Page produced 4 tracks with Mayall in 1965 ("I'm Your Witchdoctor,"
  "Telephone Blues," "Double Crossing Time" & "On Top Of The World");
  the songs feature Eric Clapton on lead guitar.
The Rolling Stones
  In 1964 Andrew Loog Oldham produced a series of demos with Mick Jagger,
  Keith Richards, and various session musicians (including Jimmy Page and
  John Paul Jones); some of those demos were then given to other artists to
  record, while other demos were used as reference tracks when it came time
  for The Stones to record official versions of the songs; some of the
  demos were later released on the Stones album "Metamorphosis" (1975)
Them (featuring Van Morrison)
  It is confirmed that Page played on "Baby Please Don't Go" (1964)
  and "Here Comes The Night" (1965), and he probably contributed to
  other recordings; there has been a great deal of debate as to wether
  Page played lead or rhythm guitar, however.
The Who
  Page played rhythm guitar on "I Can't Explain" (1965), and some
  fuzzbox guitar on its B-side, "Bald Headed Woman".
Sonny Boy Williamson
  In early 1965 Page participated in a hastily-assembled session featuring
  this legendary bluesman; Page played mostly rhythm guitar, although he
  did get in some solos on a few tracks; the recordings were eventually
  released on such albums as "Don't Send Me No Flowers" (1968), "Jam
  Session" (1975), and "Special Early Works" (1975).


Recommend sources of Page session material include the "Session Man"
albums (Archive International) and the 1992 release "Jimmy's Back
Pages...The Early Years" (Sony).
