Temporary Name
A descendant of Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin named Frau Eva von Zeppelin was angry about the band’s name, which she saw as dishonoring her family name. Thus, she requested they change their band’s name. For one night, on February 28, 1970, they played in Copenhagen as The Nobs. However, critics and fans alike preferred their previous name, and therefore, they switched back Led Zeppelin permanently after this night.

Footing The Bill
Back when they recorded their first album, Jimmy Page decided to pay for the recording himself. The total recording and mixing time came out to 30 hours and cost him about $4300 or £1782. Luckily, that album made more than £3.5 million! Apparently, Jimmy Page wanted all the artistic control “in a vise grip.”
