myRockworld - On this day 1971, Led Zeppelin II was enjoying its 100th week on the UK album charts. It was the bands first album to hit No.1 in the US, knocking The Beatles Abbey Road twice from the top spot, where it remained for seven weeks. When first released the album had advance orders of 400,000 copies in the USA, (the advertising campaign was built around the slogan Led Zeppelin II Now Flying). In 1999, it was certified 12 times Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for US sales in excess of 12 million copies. - *Angi*Admin4myRW
