SOLID.. Being one of my favourite albums of all time-it really wasn't a chore to listen to her through at HIGH volume!!
GREAT sound reproduction..Deep bass and clear highs.
There are only very light scuff marks and very light needle marks evident when angled towards the bright(!) sunlight of the UK summer!....After giving her a gentle vacuum clean and playing her through, I am happy to report the audio remians wonderfully clear, with only very occasional and very light background noise-mainly noticed inbetween tracks NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AT ALL! SOUNDED SUPERB! *TURN HER UP-I DID* Even the quiet section in "Thank you" is...well, quiet!
WOW-Superb drums kicking in at the start-magical! And Ooooh, the escalation of the bass line on Ramble On is a pure joy to listen to..And the split on 'What is and what should never be' was soooo clear it made my eyes go from left to right and back again ;)...I could go on....
FLAT & HEAVY
!!!!AS ZEPPELIN WANTED YOU TO HEAR THEM!!!!

The writing credit on Side 2 (tracks B1 - Heartbreaker and B4 - Moby Dick) are credited to “BALDWIN” - JOHN RICHARD BALDWIN, as JOHN PAUL JONES was his stage name; in addition HE IS CREDITED IN HIS STAGE NAME OF JOHN PAUL JONES on side 1 for A1 Whole Lotta Love.

The Cover:
VG.
Original 'CHOCOLATE' coloured GATEFOLD cover with some light wear to her-Please see the pictures provided.
States "Lemon Song" in the sleeve track listing...This was never changed.
These covers are notorious for light ring wear, which only shows very lightly to the back panel on this copy. The back panel also has slight 'wobbling' to it, where it looks as if somebody has tried to wipe the back card with a cloth-leaving 8 marks to the top right corner, as you can see in the detailed images provided...It's not terrible at all and cannot be seen from the front.
The spine is incredibly strong and remains legible.
The corners have some very slight rubbing but nothing terrible at all.
NO WRITING
"Sleeve printed and made in England by EJ DAY & Co, London W11"
THE EARLY PRINTING CREDIT HERE.
NO RIPS OR TEARS.
REMAINS SOLID.
The Inner:
EX+.
'MADE IN ENGLAND'
Correct inner for this copy-with the "Plastic Bags Can Be Dangerous" blue outline box to the bottom of one side.
Two-windowed poly-lined inner sleeve in creamy white which carries light discolouration-certainly did her job in looking after the vinyl :)
THIS BABY WOULD PUT A VERY LARGE SMILE ON ANY ROCK FAN!!!
THE COLLECTABLE RED & PLUM LABELS -ALL HOUSED IN A SOLID CHOCOLATE GATEFOLD SLEEVE!!....
SOLID SOUND THROUGHOUT & COMPLETE AS SHE WAS WHEN SHE WAS BORN!
SOUNDS GREAT AND LOOKS GREAT
