Jimmy Page Debuts On Multiple Charts At Once, But The Music Isn't New
Jimmy Page and The Black Crowes' Live at the Greek returns to the U.K. charts with a new peak, more ... More than two decades after its original release.

(Photo by Watal Asanuma/) Jimmy Page hasn't needed to release a steady stream of solo material to remain a legend. As a founding member of Led Zeppelin, he helped craft some of the most iconic rock songs in music history and sold tens of millions of albums. But when it comes to working without his band, Page has been much more selective. That makes his latest win on the charts in the United Kingdom all the more exciting. A new version of one of his only solo-adjacent releases returns him to multiple charts this week. The project has been on something of a major comeback, one which has now lasted several frames, which is unusual for this kind of full-length. More than 25 years ago, Page joined The Black Crowes for a one-off performance at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. The show was a special one for fans of both acts, and thankfully, it was preserved and released as Live at the Greek. This week, the live effort debuts on two U.K.-based tallies, the Official Vinyl Albums chart and the Official Albums Sales list. It narrowly misses reaching the top 10 on both, settling instead at Nos. 11 and No. 13, respectively. In addition to its debuts, Live at the Greek also returns to a third list this week. The collection reappears on the Official Physical Albums chart, which tracks the bestselling projects on physical formats like vinyl, CD, and cassette across the country. It's not new to this roster, but this period does mark its best performance yet. The title comes in at No. 11 on the physical-only tally, matching its placement on the vinyl roster. This marks its seventh appearance on the ranking, and its first in nearly a quarter century. The last time the live effort was spotted on the list was back in August 2000, when it tumbled to No. 95. Not only is Live at the Greek back, it has now reached a brand new peak, besting its former high point of No. 39 – the only time it appeared inside the top 40 on the tally until now. This sudden interest in Live at the Greek comes thanks to the fact that it was recently reissued on vinyl in celebration of a special anniversary. The project was released in 2000 – a quarter-century ago – and recorded the year prior, in 1999. A signed version of Live at the Greek is expected to be made available on Page's official website later this month. If that exclusive edition is offered in limited, but large-enough quantities, it could become responsible for another huge sales push.

Kate Hudson reveals why sex is better than ever in her 40s
Kate Hudson has shared the reason why her sex life has improved with age. The How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days star, 45, revealed things are now way better in the bedroom than they were in her 20s or 30s. Hudson is engaged to musician Danny Fujikara, who she welcomed a child with in 2018. She also shares a six-year-old with Muse frontman Matt Bellamy and her eldest with The Black Crowes' Chris Robinson. Speaking to Bustle to promote her forthcoming comedy series, Running Point, alongside Max Greenfield, Justin Theroux, Jay Ellis and Toby Sandeman, Hudson revealed the nugget of wisdom. 'Best part about sex in your 40s, honestly, is the freedom,' she said. 'Sex isn't supposed to be pretty…and I think that when you get older you kind of have more fun with that.' Elsewhere in the interview, Hudson admitted she can't help but flirt with everyone but thinks Fujikawa, 38, 'can handle' that side of her personality. 'I'm the biggest flirt on the planet. So I think anybody who's ever been with me is very aware that I flirt with everybody - girls, boys,' she said. 'Thank God Danny is my partner. He can handle this. I met the right guy,' the star added. It comes after Hudson recently shared how her ex-husband Robinson helped her feel unconditionally loved. Hudson and Robinson were married from 2000 to 2007 and share their 19-year-old son, Ryder. 'Chris completely opened that floodgate for me forever,' she said. 'No matter how complicated the relationship got at one point, the most important moment for me was meeting him, and him allowing me to understand what that felt like.' The How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days star later dated Muse frontman Matt Bellamy, with whom she shares 11-year-old son Bingham Hawn Bellamy. The pair were engaged in 2011 but ended their relationship in 2014. Hudson is currently engaged to Fujikawa, who she met through her good friends and The World's First Podcast hosts Sara and Erin Foster. They have been engaged since September 2021 and share their four-year-old daughter Rani Rose. In December, the daughter of Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson revealed why she hasn't started planning her wedding to Fujikawa yet. Speaking on ITV's This Morning, Hudson said she wasn't sure about what type of wedding she wanted to have, pondering: 'I go back and forth, I go: 'Do I really want a big wedding?' We're so happy. It's not the first thing I need. 'It's not really the golden ticket…a wedding. And we also don't know where we're gonna do it. But it will happen.'
