On Monday, March 1, 1982, the first solo LP by guitarist and founder of the rock band Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page was released.
That year, Page collaborated with director Michael Winner to record the Death Wish II soundtrack. This and several subsequent Page recordings, including the Death Wish III soundtrack, were recorded and produced at his recording studio, The Sol in Cookham, which he had purchased from Gus Dudgeon in the early 1980s.

Death Wish II is a 1982 American vigilante action-thriller film directed and co-edited by Michael Winner and produced by Cannon Films. It is the sequel to the 1974 film Death Wish. It is the second installment in the Death Wish film series. The sequel makes a complete breakaway from the Brian Garfield novels Death Wish and Death Sentence, redefining the Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) character. It was succeeded by Death Wish 3. All three films starred Charles Bronson.
The actions of the Bronson
character are dictated by the inability of the police to prevent crime,
the preoccupation of the courts with technical rather than real
justice, and the cancerous climate of fear in which we find ourselves
today. Paul Kersey is no hero. In his pursuit of vengeance he loses the
only emotional relationship of his life and by story's end has become as
much a victim of crime as the thugs he leaves dead in his wake".
