Death Wish II is a soundtrack album by Jimmy Page, released by Swan Song Records on 15 February 1982, to accompany the film Death Wish II.
Page was asked by his Berkshire neighbour, movie director Michael Winner, to record a soundtrack for the film Death Wish II in late August 1981. Page was given a deadline of a few weeks to write and record the album at his personal studio The Sol and to travel on location to Los Angeles with Winner for songwriting themes. Winner later explained:
I'd lived next door to Jimmy for many years. It was a very bad time for him - the drummer (John Bonham of Led Zeppelin) had died, and he was in a very inactive period. (Led Zeppelin manager) Peter Grant and I made arrangements for Jimmy to do the Death Wish II score, for which he wasn't actually paid, because Grant wanted to restore Jimmy back to creativity. Jimmy rang the doorbell and I thought if the wind blew he'd fall over. He saw the film, we spotted where the music was to go, and then he said to me "I'm going to my studio. I don't want you anywhere near me, I'm going to do it all on my own". Anyway, we gave him the film, we gave him the timings and he did it all on his own. Everything hit the button totally! I've never seen a more professional score in my life.
Death Wish II starred Charles Bronson, and was set around Los Angeles, which inspired Page to write a blues-flavoured soundtrack. The soundtrack features Dave Mattacks from Fairport Convention, former Pretty Things keyboards player Gordon Edwards, and veteran singer Chris Farlowe, who also later appeared on Page's 1988 solo album Outrider. Page used a Roland guitar synthesizer on a number of the tracks. Tracks from this album were later reused by Winner for Death Wish III. Page was later asked by Winner compose the soundtrack for Scream for Help (1985), but he declined and suggested John Paul Jones to the director instead.
This album is Page's only solo material to appear on Led Zeppelin's record label Swan Song Records. His two later albums with The Firm were released on Atlantic and Outrider was on Geffen Records. Swan Song ceased operations in 1983. Even though the track "Prelude" is credited solely to Page himself, it is based on "Prelude No. 4 in E minor (Op. 28)" by Frédéric Chopin.

5.0 out of 5 stars UNDERRATED PAGE SOUNDTRACK TO TYPICAL BRONSON THRILLER Two years after the demise of John Bonham (and hence, Led Zeppelin), Jimmy Page comprised this series of instrumental and vocal tracks for the sequel to Michael Winner's 1974 thriller DEATH WISH, starring Charles Bronson as lethal vigilante, Paul Kersey. Page did a grand job, conjuring up those synthesiser sounds and drooping sonic effects to add menace and darkness to a brutal film, in which an ordinary man is taking the necessary steps to hunt down the thugs responsible for the deaths of his daughter and housemaid. 'Hotel Rats and Photostats', 'Shadow In The City',and the last few minutes of 'The Chase'exemplify this, but there are some electric guitar-laden tracks to keep Zeppers happy such as 'The Release', the soft-rocky 'City Sirens', the downright dirty, pumping 'Jam Sandwich', the sleazily heavy 'Big Band Sax and Violence' and the final track 'Hypnotising Ways (Mama)'.
5.0 out of 5 stars Much better, in retrospect, than it seemed at the time, For true Page fans only. This was the first piece of music that Page put to vinyl after the demise of Led Zep.Michael Winner, who lived next door to Page's Tower House, asked him to score the film. A well thought-through and assembled collection of rock numbers, synthy ambient pieces, solo acoustic guitar mood pieces and orchestral interludes, which can be appreciared independently of the firm (for those of you like me who don't like the Deathwish series). For die-hard page fans this LP is a must.
