2023年11月8日 · A man depicted on the album cover of Led Zeppelin IV has been revealed as a 19th Century thatcher. The figure is most likely Lot Long from Mere in Wiltshire, photographed by Ernest Farmer. Brian Edwards, from the University of the West of England (UWE), found the original picture when looking through a photograph album for other research.

2014年10月21日 · The block of flats on the album is 'Salisbury Tower' and it is in the Ladywood district of Birmingham. The row of demolished houses in front is Camden Street. Anyway I was fortunate enough to find an old B&W photo which amazingly shows the exact row of houses which are half demolished on the album cover.

2016年11月10日 · In contrast the front cover to the band's second highest selling album looks remarkably similar - with one obvious exception. Sixth studio album Physical Graffiti sold a reported 16 million records. The building featured on its cover still stands in St Mark's Place in New York's East Village appears very similar today as it did on the 1975 album.

2007年12月12日 · The four symbols on the cover of Led Zeppelin IV, representing Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, John Bonham, and Robert Plant (from left to right) respectively. Although the symbols are sometimes referred to as "Runes", only the …

2012年6月9日 · Personally I'm not convinced that story is true. I still suspect Jimmy may have commissioned an artist to paint it - if he did not paint it himself - just as he did for the inside album cover art. The figure on the cover bears a striking resemblance to a preeminent occult figure, George Pickingill.

2024年11月11日 · Bonham passed away in 1980, so I would be VERY skeptical of signatures in "Sharpie" pen from Led Zeppelin as Sharpies weren't widely available or used at that time. And from this amateur's eyes, those signatures don't look legit.

2008年4月3日 · The band’s name and album title appeared in a Japanese paper obi (basically a ribbon that was wrapped around the album that you had to break to open the cover and get to the record.) So that the cover was pure and appealed to Zeppelin’s anti commercial attitudes.

2007年12月12日 · I was told by someone at a guitar shop near me that if I held the sleeve of the stairway to heaven (zeppelin IV) album up to a mirror a certain way that I would see a face or something. I went out and bought it and held it up and I guess if you look at it the right way you can kind of see a face,...

2010年7月14日 · Hi does anyone know about the Destroyer Demo copy 4 album box set, Seattle August 77. I have a copy and would like to know if anyone would know what its worth? I also have Led Zeppelin at the L.A. FORUM which is a two album LP. I also have a 3 LP set called LED ZEPPELIN melancholy Danish pageboys...

2010年3月16日 · The woman in the picture is Glynis Johns, the mother from Mary Poppins. Her presence in the photo is an obvious play on the name of recording engineer Glyn Johns. The other face added was that of bluesman Blind Willie Johnson. The cover also pictured the outline of a Zeppelin on a brown background, which gave the album its nickname "Brown Bomber".
