A “Rock Mystery” Solved?

How crazy is THIS . . . the old guy carrying the sticks on his back on the cover of “Led Zeppelin 4” has been identified. Legend has it that Robert Plant found the picture at an antique shop. Recently, a researcher from a University in England, happened upon the same picture in an old photo album. The original was taken in 1892, and after a little digging, he found the man’s name was Lot Long (or possibly Longyear). He was a “thatcher” (like a roofer), who died in 1893 (the year after the picture was taken). He was 70 years old. The photographer was Ernest Howard Farmer, who died in 1944, almost 30 years before the photo became famous.
