One photo in the book shows Page hanging out backstage at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

"You look like you're having a good time," Cornell said of the photo, according to Rolling Stone.

"Oh, I'm always having a good time," Page replied.

When Cornell came across a photo of Page sitting in a stream in rural Wales, he said, "This is a photo of the front porch of that universe you created with acoustic music."

The pair also talked about Led Zeppelin's debut album, Led Zeppelin I. Page said he wanted to create a "guitar tour de force, but not at the expense of the other members."

Cornell himself is gearing up for a retrospective release of his own. Soundgarden is releasing a three disc rarities collection, Echo of Miles: Scattered Tracks Across the Path. The compilation includes covers, demos, instrumentals and other odd, rare tracks. You can listen to Soundgarden's cover of Sly and the Family Stone's funk classic "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin), which will appear on Echo of Miles, on YouTube.
