Title: Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin III
Year/Genre: 1970, Rock
Matrix #: ATL-SD 7201
Condition: NM (LP, Gatefold with Wheel)
Description: Released in 1970, Led Zeppelin III came during the height of the band’s fame, when they were pushing back against the grind of constant touring and media intrusion. Around this time, Jimmy Page purchased Aleister Crowley’s former Boleskine House on the shores of Loch Ness, fueling Zeppelin’s reputation for occult associations. The album’s unique spinning-wheel gatefold sleeve, designed by artist Zacron, was one of the most elaborate covers of its era. For collectors, a clean copy with the intact wheel is highly prized, representing both the band’s mystique and their flair for presentation.
