LED ZEPPELIN: Classic Albums Newly Certified

February 21, 2006

LED ZEPPELIN's classic "Physical Graffiti" and "Led Zeppelin IV" albums both reached new sales plateaus as of January 30, 2006, according to the RIAA (Recording Industry Asociation of America). "Physical Graffiti" (which originally came out on March 3, 1975) has been officially certified 16 times platinum (for more than 16 million copies sold),while "Led Zeppelin IV" (which was issued on November 8, 1971) has been certified for sales in excess of 23 million copies in the United States.

As previously reported, Jimmy Page recently autographed a limited-edition run of "Led Zeppelin IV" artwork that's now on sale. The print, which features the front and back cover of the album, measures 39 inches by 24 inches, and it's printed on heavy stock. Page signed and numbered the run of 250 prints, and they're available through the Led-Zeppelin.com web site. As you might imagine, such a rarity doesn't come cheap — the picture sells for $1,500 plus shipping.
