Fascinating Fact #1: Jimmy Page is credited with creating reverse-echo as a studio device while recording a Yardbirds song in 1967. As Page says, I said, Look, turn the tape over and employ the echo for the brass on a spare track. Then turn it back over and well get the echo preceding the signal. The result was very interesting. It made the track sound like it was going backwards. You can hear this on Whole Lotta Love and on almost every rock album from thereon out.
