legendary LED ZEPPELIN OBJECT finally came in by post today, hand crafted in New Jersey.originally seen on Zeppelin's 1976 "Presence" album cover artwork - now also in my living room.

Is it “based” on an original sculpture by Willie Dixon?

I have no idea on its origin, but the Presence album cover is based on that very object. front, back and inner album design showing the object in different situations. it's a really weird concept. I like it a lot, you can find it easily via google search and key words led zeppelin presence album cover. and cool album btw, very underrated. Achilles Last Stand is one of the best Plant/Page studio performances imho.

I always thought that Led Zep's "object" concept was borrowed from Kubrick's Monolith in 2001 Odyssey. @Dick Brucinson
One of Zeppelin's very best songs. Also, first rock gallop ever?

never heard of the Kubrick theory yet, however, Immigrant Song was built on great gallop, too
