...and his unzipped fly!
After examining this pic with my boyfriend's magnifying glass, I have concluded that although Robert Plant's fly could be unzipped, it is perhaps not, IMHO.

Yes, at the Continental Hyatt House on the Sunset Strip in March 1975, and taken by Peter Simon.
------------------------------------
In 1975, a publicist friend offered Davis, by that time an editor at Rolling Stone, an invitation to join the band for two weeks on the road aboard the Starship, Led Zeppelin's private tour plane. The idea was to introduce the British metal group, which had developed a bad reputation at home, to American audiences. Davis secured a story assignment from Atlantic Monthly magazine, and he and good pal and photographer Peter Simon set off. What they came back with became the stuff of legend. "This was a book that outed members of Led Zeppelin as heroin addicts, and as people that brutalized other people," Davis says.
While the younger staffers at the Atlantic loved the piece, he says, senior editors sniffed, and the story was killed. It wasn't until 10 years later, 5 years after Led Zeppelin disbanded following the death of drummer John "Bonzo" Bonham, that Davis, looking for a book project, blew the dust off his tour notes. "For a while after Hammer of the Gods came out, the band said, 'Who is this Stephen Davis? We never knew him.' But fortunately, I've got these pictures."
Davis scrolls through a series of Simon's unpublished photographs on his laptop showing the young rock reporter chatting up lead singer Robert Plant in his L.A. hotel room, in the elevator, on the balcony, with the dusty city spread out below.
That was a light-hearted time.
Maybe I was the only one having fun.
Okay, maybe they were only having fun in February, 1975, and then they stopped in March.
