Led Zeppelin's Physical Grafitti

Video Tour: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhjaUsJ8PIk

Description: Stand on St. Marks Place and stare up at the weathered tenement façades of 96–98, and you’re looking straight into the brick-and-mortar frame of Led Zeppelin’s *Physical Graffiti*. For the 1975 album, the band turned this East Village block into a surreal collage, cropping and reassembling its windows into a stacked puzzle of faces, letters, and in-jokes that matched the sprawl of the sprawling double LP inside. Today, the fire escapes and stonework are still instantly recognizable, a stubbornly real backdrop to one of rock’s most imaginative pieces of cover art. This is one of the New York stops in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
