Sales of Led Zeppelin records have gone through the roof after their comeback gig on Monday (December 10).
The ageing rocker's gig at London's O2 Arena proved to be a massive hit, and has led to a 500% increase in sales of their back catalogue, according to HMV figures.
A HMV spokesperson explained to the NME: "This demonstrates the enduring appeal of Led Zeppelin as the definitive rock band.
"Their music is now connecting with a whole new generation of fans, who are discovering its brilliance for the first time."
Such was the impact of their gig that Mothership - the band's recent compilation album - experienced a 50% sales boost on the day after the gig outselling any other album.
