Led Zeppelin Award Ceremony (1974)
​



One of the events on this page  was a VERY private ceremony we held for Zeppelin on the penthouse of the Continental Hyatt House (nee Riot House).  Instead of bestowing them the typical Gold Record, we had commissioned an original piece of artwork by legendary artist Rod Dyer.  The ideas was to illustrate all of the destruction caused by Zeppelin during their two-week stay in Southern California.  I think they enjoyed the artwork better than any Gold Record, since it was so unusual and memorable.
