Actually it was the mirror ball that Led Zeppelin used in concert at the end of Stairway To Heaven, which of course, led to the disco ball about 5 years later. Emil is real old school.

HE DID, INDEED! Do you know how many rabbit holes Emil had to dig up to find all those little mirrors? It was a shit ton! A remarkable undertaking...

VPLM, when the book is written, will be credited...

I was right in the middle of the disco era and few realize the joy the disco ball brought us all. We used to stare up at them and have long discussions over how they came up with "all those frick'n tiny mirrors". It is rumored that a like discussion gave Elton the inspiration for 'Tiny Dancer'... He looked a a ball and saw a bunch of "tiny dancers". Now, I'm not sure I believe the Elon part, "but it is written"!
