30 years ago, the dream of every #LedZeppelin fan came true. Jimmy Page and Robert Plant reunited for a live album that featured both new material and middle eastern-influenced covers of classic Led Zeppelin songs.

The songs were recorded in Marrakech, Morocco, in a forest in Wales and in a London studio.

No Quarter sold millions and was followed by a world tour.

๐Ÿ“œ This is the last and only ancient "Stele" left in Veniceโ˜๏ธ

๐Ÿ“ On these stones laws important for Venetian citizens were carved for everyone to read and conform.

๐Ÿ“ŒAt its very end the sculpted date is #31October 1727, so next year this stone will be 300 years old!

I let you search for it and read it in person when in Venice ๐Ÿซต
