7. Jimmy Page
Guitar god; theremin soloist; David Coverdale collaborator
Best described as: Bloated
Claim to eternal infamy: One hates to criticize Page, the man who came up with 
the best riff in rock'n'roll history ("The Ocean"), lived in the U.K.'s most 
rock'n'roll residence (Aleister Crowley's mansion), and wore the most 
rock'n'roll trousers ever sewn (those black bell-bottom "dragon pants" from The 
Song Remains the Same). However, he also had a legendary appetite for jailbait, 
unleashing a whole lotta love on doe-eyed model Lori Maddox when she was only 
14. Back when the Beastie Boys weren't self-righteous, they paid tribute to the 
Led Zep jedi on "The New Style": "If I played guitar, I'd be Jimmy Page / The 
girlies I like are underage."
All you really need to know: In a 1985 interview, Page said, "I've never done 
anything a person didn't want"; he later added, "I've done everything you've 
ever heard."

#1 is Courtney Love :/.
