Sprinz77 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Hello! I would like to share my Led Zeppelin III denim jacket from 1985 (my high school days). My cousin's friend from Hicksville, NY was a wonderful artist. To make extra pocket money for concerts, pizza, beers and Acapulco Gold he would paint album covers on to denim jackets for his friends. I asked him if he paint the album cover from Led Zeppelin III on to my Levi's denim....he was blown away that I asked him...but very up to the challenge. This was his all time favorite album cover! He told me that kids always commissioned him to paint Led Zeppelin I and II. The only problem was I wanted to wear the jacket for the up coming Robert Plant concert at the Meadowlands Arena July 23rd 1985. This was exactly one week away. He did such a beautiful job and was so proud! It looks as good today as back then. The jacket is always a hit where ever I go. People seem to remember me (actually... the jacket) at Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones concerts. My cousin and his friend are passed away now. I am so happy I have this beautiful jacket to always remember them. ZoSo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveAJones Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Classic. Iconic. I can't think of a single contemporary rock group who inspire devotion such as this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
