Deconstructing album posters

I have chosen this poster for Led-Zeppelin to deconstruct. It has the typical conventions of a poster for an album, with the artists name on top, album artwork in the middle and name of the Cd at the bottom with added info like the record company, and in what form the music is available on. The album artwork usually relates to the band or songs on the album or just an image of the artist. As this one has no image of the artist im assuming the image is relevant to the songs. Its a cartoon image of London, including the iconic big ben as that is what a lot of people associate London with, therefore helps people to know where the image is supposed to be off. It also has a large blimp in the sky, this is very relevant to the artist as another name for it is a Led Zeppelin balloon.
