Métropolitaines in use for 2 Bugs and a Roach, an album with Chicago blues and Jump blues by Earl Hooker (1930–1970), recorded at Chicago’s Sound Studios in November 1968 and released the following year on Arhoolie Records. According to Wikipedia, Jimmy Page wanted a Gibson EDS-1275, after seeing the sleeve with Hooker on his double neck electric guitar.
