XYZ STORY

 Do you know XYZ?

 XYZ is a name of band what Jimmy Page tried to make with Chris Squire and Alan White
 (from YES) in 1981. Origin of the name is eX Yes, Zeppelin. (Too easy!!)

 Unfortunately, this project was failed. 
 Chris and Alan released single titled as "RUN WITH THE FOX" in Dec, 1981.
 And, Jimmy released soundtrack album "DEATH WISH II" in Mar, 1982.

 Chris says about the source of XYZ in his interviews. But there are no underground 
 tapes in trader's market for long time.

 I'm proud of that I can introduce this great treasure to you.

 ** Special Thanks to Mr. Shoji Yamada (He is great YES Collector.) **
