The PIK-PAK offers the consumer the opportunity of seeing the complete, full color tape cover without asking for a salesman to un -lock that case.

Four talented musicians in their own right Jimmy Page (guitar); John Paul Jones (bass/organ); John Bonham (drums) and Robert Plant (vocal) joined forces five months ago and made an immediate impact. They toured America earlier this year where their album "Led Zeppelin" is issued on Atlantic.
