His concept was not accepted due to some reasons. But Hardie had another design concept in mind which involved the depiction of a zeppelin in the sky. Initially, the idea for Led Zeppelin debut album cover was given by Jimmy page, the guitarist for the band who suggested to use a famed photograph which was taken at the site of explosion by Sam Shere. The classic and vintage album art creator Hardie admitted that he never had any record player in those times and yet he created some of the best album covers of the era. Nevertheless, the cover is still in the minds of the people and is highly loved. He believes he could have given another thought about that whole situation. The artistic cover production for this album was done by George Hardie who is a little hesitant now about using the image of the terrible 1937 disaster as the album cover at that time. This album made way for one of the greatest rock bands in the history of rock culture. It has been 50 years since the debut album of Led Zeppelin came out.
