Whoops

Now, this one we couldn’t see happening today with all of the intensive editings. So if you listen to “The Ocean,” you can actually hear a phone ringing. At 1:37-8 and 1:41, this sound is heard. When questioned if this was an actual phone, producer Eddie Kramer claimed ignorance. He said there’s a chance it could be an actual phone ringing since they recorded the song in a house, but at the time, they didn’t hear anything.

Crowley’s Old House

In 1971, Jimmy Page moved into the former home of occultist and British philosopher Aleister Crowley. In fact, Page said the home was haunted, but not with Crowley. He said the previous owners haunted it, telling Rolling Stone, “It was also a church that was burned to the ground with the congregation in it. Strange things have happened in that house that had nothing to do with Crowley. The bad vibes were already there. A man was beheaded there, and sometimes you can hear his head rolling down.” Page had a bit of an obsession with Crowley and collected a lot of his memorabilia.
