[maggot]

Good morning Sunday people and welcome back to Stuck In The Vinyl Again. Today we joyfully celebrate the 75th Birthday of Led Zeppelin bassist/keyboardist John Paul Jones . Happy Birthday John ! Led Zeppelin's sixth studio album, Physical Graffiti, was released February 24, 1975, on the band's label Swan Song and produced by guitarist Jimmy Page. The double album reached #3 in New Zealand, #2 in Austria and Spain, and #1 Canada, the UK, and America, where it has been certified 16X Platinum. "Trampled Under Foot", the LP's lone single, peaked at #38 on the Billboard Hot 100. The record's cover boasts the iconic die cut sleeve design with the windows of a New York City tenement block. The location is 96 and 98 East 8th Street / St. Mark's Place in Manhattan. Our copy was another addition from cousin Becky. Thanks Becky !
