LED ZEPPELIN MADE HISTORY IN 1975 WHEN ALL SIX OF THEIR ALBUMS WERE ON THE U.S. CHARTS AT THE SAME TIME, INCLUDING PHYSICAL GRAFFITI, AT #1. THAT HAD NEVER HAPPENED TO A SINGLE GROUP BEFORE.
ALSO, IN 1975, JEFF BECK RELEASES THE ALL-INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM, ‘BLOW BY BLOW’. THE LP WOULD PEAK AT #4 ON THE BILLBOARD 200 AND REMAINS BECK’S HIGHEST-CHARTING ALBUM.
AND FINALLY IN 2007, U2 SINGER BONO ACCEPTED AN HONORARY KNIGHTHOOD AT A CEREMONY IN DUBLIN. HE WAS NOT ENTITLED TO BE CALLED “SIR,” BECAUSE HE IS NOT A BRITISH CITIZEN. THE SINGER’S NEW TITLE IS KNIGHT COMMANDER OF THE MOST EXCELLENT ORDER OF THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
