LABEL DENOTING EARLY 1969 PRESS.
VINYL STILL HAS LOVELY SHINE WITH A FEW HAIRLINES AND SLEEVE REMOVAL SCUFFS
THIS IS A CHANCE TO OWN ONE OF THE EARLY VERSION LED ZEP 2 LEFT ON CLOSE UNDER LIGHT INSPECTION I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW LIGHT HAIRLINES/REMOVAL FROM SLEEVE MARKS THE GLOSSY SHINE FROM THIS ALBUM IS AMAZING THIS ALBUM IS NEARLY FIFTY YEARS OLD!!! I HAVE TEST PLAYED THIS ALBUM ALL THE WAY THROUGH NOTHING NO PROBLEMS AT ALL YOU WILL STRUGGLE TO FIND THIS ALBUM LIKE THIS AGAIN.
THE LABELS WOULD BE GRADED AS NEAR MINT BUT DUE TO NAME "Sylvia" very faded on side One only ( may remove?) I WOULD GRADE AS EXCELLENT ( See pics)
THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE MADE BY EJ DAY IS THE DOWNSIDE UNFORTUNATELY!!! GRADED AS VG+ CONDITION DUE TO "SW" initials written on front ( about 1" in size but in faded felt tip?may clean off but I'll let you decide) FRONT AND SHELF RUB WEAR ON EDGES EDGES ETC otherwise ok with no rips or tears (please see pictures and zoom)
LED ZEPPELIN - LED ZEPPELIN II
An increasingly rare and sought after original early UK pressing of this 1969 Led Zeppelin 2 classic LP on the ATLANTIC label, 588198
The dead wax matrix numbers are :
Side 1 588198 A//6 420 with stampers "1 1" and "2 1" at 11o'clock
Side 2 588198 B//4 with stampers "1 4 11" at 11o'clock
The appearance of the vinyl is excellent. The vinyl has retained a beautiful jet black sheen on each side - In normal daylight there are just a couple of barely visible light scuffs and wispy hairlines; under a bright light and when tilted at the right angle a few more wispy hairlines come into view Apart from that there appears to be nothing below the surface and certainly nothing feelable
Note that the side 1 label lists the third track as "KILLING FLOOR" but on the outer sleeve the track is listed as "THE LEMON SONG".inside centrefold
Finally, the quality of the audio is very good+. In fact, for the vast majority of this album the audio quality is excellent or better with great tone and clarity even at higher volume and on the higher frequencies. There is just a little background interference - not severe, but noticeable nonetheless. And there is just a little, occasional and mild background static/crackle - this really is minor and only noticeable at the beginning and end of each side, during the interludes and some of the quieter moments (there are not many). In summary, not perfect but still a great listen throughout. I firmly believe a professional clean would improve this audio even further.
The tracks are :
Side 1 :
1. WHOLE LOTTA LOVE
2. WHAT IS WHAT SHOULD NEVER BE
3. KILLING FLOOR (note that this track is listed as THE LEMON SONG on the outer sleeve)
4. THANK YOU
Side 2 :
1. HEARTBREAKER
2. LIVIN' LOVIN' MAID (SHE'S JUST A WOMAN)
3. RAMBLE ON
4. MOBY DICK
5. BRING IT ON HOME
