Led Zeppelin Poster Review
by
Rock
and The King
| "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." |
