1982:
Coda is Led Zeppelin's ninth studio album and is comprised of unused tracks from the band's various studio sessions over the years. "Coda" is a musical term that means a passage that follows the main body of a musical piece and provides a conclusion to the piece.

"Coda was released, basically, because there was so much bootleg stuff out. We thought, "Well, if there's that much interest, then we may as well put the rest of our studio stuff out".
~ Jimmy Page

1971:
Honolulu was hot and sticky, with an obnoxious audience. This first of two nights' shows got poor reviews. Still the best band on the planet.

Here's the On This Day mystery.

2013 16 September On This Day post - Ofra Haza

Ofra Haza (1957 - 2000) was an Israeli singer, actress and international recording artist. Born in the slums of Tel Aviv, her music rose above political boundaries to reach a broad international audience. Haza received numerous platinum and gold discs and she performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony in Oslo in 1994. 

In 1995 she covered Led Zeppelin's Kashmir on her album, Queen In Exile. The song appears twice on the album with different approaches.  Haza died of AIDS-related pneumonia, reportedly due to a blood transfusion in a Turkish hospital following a miscarriage. 

The mystery is why Jimmy Page posted this when he did. As far as I can tell, the date and the year are not connected to any specific event associated with Ofra Haza. Maybe someone else can tell me. Maybe Jimmy Page would be so kind as to contact me and let me know.
