"There are so many great Led Zeppelin posters,
it's tough to pick a favorite. But, if I had to choose,
it would be the Swansong poster art of Apollo (not Icarus)
above the runes. The composition is so simple, but the
emotional power behind the art is undeniable. Of course,
Apollo's hair makes it a rock poster classic. While
the meaning of the runes is still subject to debate
this day, depending on your source, the most widely
accepted version is that each member chose a symbol
to represent them on the album cover. Robert Plant's
symbol of a feather in a circle comes from an ancient
mythical Mu civilization, and represents truth for Plant.
John Bonham's rune of the three interlocking circles
has a mysterious origin, but Plant has said that he
thought it implied the trilogy of man, woman and child,
or it was the emblem of Ballantine Beer inverted. John
Paul Jones's symbol of a circle overlaying three ovals
represents unity and family. The meaning of Jimmy Page's
"zoso" symbol has not been disclosed to the
public." |

"Led Zeppelin hypnotized a generation around
the world with powerful rock anthems. They synthesized
wild combinations of musical influences and defined
hard rock for the 1970's. Despite the fact that the
band has produced a magnificent collection of poster
art, it is interesting to note that the "plane
photo" poster of the four band members in front
of their airplane is still one of the most widely
demanded rock music posters. In the company of the
Beatles and Elvis Presley, Led Zeppelin fans will
not let go of this band. Their music means too much.
In the end, the tremendous weight of success was too
much for drummer John Bonham who died from symptoms
caused by an alcohol overdose. But even with his passing,
we can still buy the Stairway to Heaven. Maybe that's
enough for this life." |
