SOME LED ZEPPELIN TRIVIA

1. **Name Origins**: The band’s name reportedly came about when Keith Moon, drummer of The Who, joked that a supergroup featuring Page, Beck, Entwistle, and Moon would go down like a “lead balloon” — which was later modified to “Led Zeppelin.”

2. **The Fourth Album**: *Led Zeppelin IV* is famously known for not having an official title or band name on its cover, featuring only four symbols (one for each band member) on the sleeve.

3. **Stolen Master Tapes**: In 1971, Led Zeppelin’s entire collection of master tapes for their upcoming album were stolen from the back of a van. The thief demanded a ransom, but the band refused to pay, and the tapes were eventually recovered.

4. **Concert Attendance Record**: Led Zeppelin set a world record for the largest audience at a single-act rock concert in 1973, when they played to 56,800 fans at Tampa Stadium in Florida.

5. **Live Album Tricks**: The crowd noise on their 1976 live album *The Song Remains the Same* was actually dubbed in later, as the band was dissatisfied with the original live recordings.

6. **Drummer’s Handiwork**: John Bonham, the band’s drummer, was notorious for his powerful drumming style and once reportedly played so hard that he broke his bass drum pedal during a recording session.

7. **Symbol Controversy**: The symbol on Led Zeppelin’s fourth album, often referred to as “Zoso,” is actually a sigil created by Jimmy Page based on his astrological sign and incorporates alchemical symbols.

8. **Plagiarism Accusations**: Led Zeppelin faced multiple accusations of plagiarism, including a lawsuit over similarities between “Stairway to Heaven” and the song “Taurus” by the band Spirit. The lawsuit was settled in Led Zeppelin’s favor.

9. **Ban on Airplay**: In 1982, “Stairway to Heaven” was banned from being played on a Chicago rock station after receiving numerous requests for the song every day for over a decade.

10. **Final Performance**: Led Zeppelin’s last concert with their original lineup was on July 7, 1980, at Eissporthalle in Berlin, Germany. John Bonham passed away the following year, leading to the band’s dissolution.
