"In 1977, at the beginning of the American leg of the Led Zeppelin tour, the band had some ground lights that resembled the landing lights of airplanes that you have on the wings of a 747 during landing. They were only turned on at the very end of the show for half a minute or so.

The image of Jimmy with his half-lit face is a rare photo with these lights, because after about two shows they were abolished. Someone in the band thought it was too bright. They give his face a really sinister effect. It's between songs, he's looking into the crowd and the spotlights give the image a quality that other photos of him don't have." -NEAL
