LED Zeppelin Studio Albums

B - Led Zeppelin II
C - Led Zeppelin III
  - [untitled fourth album] Use a Space
D - Houses Of The Holy
E - Physical Graffiti
F - Presence
G - In Through The Out Door
H - Coda

After matching the songs to the albums they came from you will have a code such as ADEF BC EDC ADEFG

With a little research into other conversions and alphabets you can find a way to turn that string of codes from all seven segments into the six digits XXX -- XXX that you will want to see to use for coordinates of N 40 43.XXX W 073 31.XXX


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
