I know that this question probably is very common, but...i want to share with you my feelings.
Today, I saw a photo of Jimmy dressed up like a nazi in a concert of 1977.
I don't know why, but...I have never seen it before...and it really desplease me.
I always see Led Zeppelin like the Gods of hippy's ideology: the preacers of excesses, but also of messages like the communion with Mother Nature, the brotherhodd...PEACE...
Was not Robert "The Prince of Peace" that "embraced the Gloom and walk the night alone"?
Why do they do this?
To impress people? they didn't need these stratagems to astonish the pubblic...
Like satire?
O because they were in contempt of the horror of wich that uniform is risponsable?
They have never explained that thing?
What do you think of?
Where did the piper, with his message of peace and brotherhood, go?
P.S. scuse me for my bad english.
Princess,
I always thought it was part of the whole LZII motif. The Zepelin in the background, the WWII look that some of the bandmembers eschewed. I never thought it was offensive or clever; just costumes and showmanship. Could be I'm just too stupid to see it.
The Prince of Peace and the Nazi?
