NO BARCODE, RAISED LETTERING ON GATEFOLD JACKET
Jimmy Page explained: There was no working title for the album. The record-jacket designer said `When I think of the group, I always think of power and force. There's a definite presence there.' That was it. He wanted to call it `Obelisk'. To me, it was more important what was behind the obelisk. The cover is very tongue-in-cheek, to be quite honest. Sort of a joke on [the film] 2001 A Space Odyessy. I think it's quite amusing.
Jimmy Page made the decision to record the album after Robert Plant sustained serious injuries from a car accident on the Greek island of Rhodes on 5 August 1975, which forced the band to cancel a proposed world tour that was due to commence on 23 August.
At this point, Led Zeppelin were arguably at the height of their popularity. When he was taken to a Greek hospital after the accident, Plant recalled:
I was lying there in some pain trying to get cockroaches off the bed and the guy next to me, this drunken soldier, started singing "The Ocean" from Houses of the Holy.
The background used in the cover photograph is of an artificial marina that was installed inside London's Earl's Court Arena for the annual Earl's Court Boat Show that was held in the winter of 1974–75. This was the same venue where the band played a series of concerts a few months after the boat show, in May 1975.
In 1977 Hipgnosis and George Hardie were nominated for a Grammy Award in the category of best album package.

About Us
PEARL STREET RECORDS' GRADING SCALE
WE RARELY SELL RECORDS LESS THAN VG+ CONDITION, ONLY EXTREMELY RARE RECORDS WOULD WE SELL A RECORD IN LESS THAN VG+ CONDITION. WE RARELY USE "MINT" OR "G" GRADES
NM = Near mint. Our highest grade for an opened record. The record may only have been played once or twice, or the previous owner was very meticulous in how they handled it. Vinyl is extra clean and shiny with virtually no signs of wear. Cover is also very clean appearing and well preserved.
EX or VG++ = Only slight signs of wear; still very clean, with a few very light surface marks which won't distract from the sound. Cover also has only slight wear and will still be in strong collectible condition. This grade should still satisfy most demanding collectors.
VG+ = Shows some signs of being used, but has still been well cared for. It may have light surface wear and a little record noise at times such asduring soft passages. Overall it should still play well. Cover may have some wear or light ring wear but does not have any serious damage or defects.
VG = A more used record with some overall wear and light marks in the vinyl. There should be no skips while playing the record. Cover will have some wear, seamwear, ring wear, or a price sticker.
VG- (VG Minus) = We normally don't offer records in this condition, should we offer it due to it's rarity, It will have some scratches or overall wear, and might play with a lot of noise. The cover would have heavy wear, ring wear, and may have some tearing or splitting.
