This was the second year in a row Led Zeppelin received the award, so the whole studio catalog is now included.

1605
Guy Fawkes was a conspirator in the Gunpowder Plot, a failed assassination attempt against King James meant to install the king's Catholic daughter, Elizabeth, on the throne.  Guy Fawkes was in charge of the explosives that would take out the House of Lords.  The plot failed when the conspirators were ratted out in an anonymous letter.  He and the others were condemned to be hanged, drawn and quartered, but Fawkes jumped off the scaffold and broke his neck to avoid the agony of the sentence.  The failed Gunpowder Ploth has been commemorated in Britain ever since then, with his effigy burned on a bonfire, usually accompanied by a firework display.

The burning of effigies (models of humans) as protest or sacrifice to the gods has been around a long time. Druids' burning of Wicker Man was recorded by Julius Caesar, and today, besides Guy Fawkes, we have the Burning Man Festival in Nevada, Zozobra in Santa Fe, the burning of the Hindu demon king Ravana in India, and others.
