"LED ZEPPELIN”

(1969 ATLANTIC RECORDS - RARE UK FIRST PRESSING!!)

ON OFFER HERE IS THIS MEGA-RARE UK FIRST PRESSING OF THE CLASSIC SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM BY LED ZEPPELIN ON THE RED & PLUM ATLANTIC LABEL.

THIS IS THE GENUINE UK FIRST PRESSING WITH TURQUOISE LETTERING IN THE TOP LEFT HAND CORNER ON THE FRONT OF THE SLEEVE AND A TURQUOISE ATLANTIC LOGO IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT-HAND CORNER, AGAIN ON THE FRONT. THERE IS A SILVER STRIP AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FRONT OF THE SLEEVE. THE LABELS ARE GENUINE FIRST PRESS RED & PLUM ATLANTIC LABELS. THE LABELS HAVE THE SUPERHYPE CREDIT FOR TRACKS 1, 2 & 4 ON SIDE ONE AND FOR TRACKS 1, 2, 3 & 5 ON SIDE TWO. THE MATRIX NUMBERS ALSO PROVE THAT THIS IS A GENUINE UK FIRST PRESSING.

CATALOGUE NUMBER IS ATLANTIC 588171

MATRIX NUMBERS ARE 588171 A//1 / 588171 B//1

THE SLEEVE

THE FULLY LAMINATED “MACNEIL PRESS” SLEEVE IS IN GOOD+ CONDITION. THERE IS SOME RING WEAR AND THERE ARE A FEW WRINKLES AND A COUPLE OF SMALL CREASES IN THE LAMINATION. THERE IS A ONE INCH SPLIT TO THE SPINE. THERE IS A TINY NICK AT THE OPENING. ON THE BACK OF THE SLEEVE THERE IS SOME DAMAGE TO THE BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER WHICH HAS BRUISED THE SPINE AND CAUSED A SMALL AREA OF THE LAMINATION TO PEEL AWAY.

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE HEAVY, GLOSSY BLACK VINYL IS ONLY IN GOOD+ CONDITION. THERE ARE PLENTY OF MARKS & SCUFFS AND THE SOUND QUALITY HAS DETERIORATED A BIT. THERE IS SOME BACKGROUND NOISE WHICH IS MAINLY AUDIBLE DURING QUIETER PASSAGES. THERE ARE SOME LIGHT POPS DURING SIDE 2, TRACK 1. OTHERWISE THERE IS NOTHING NASTY AND I REALLY ENJOYED THE LISTEN - AT A LOUD VOLUME!!

THE LABELS

THE RED & PLUM ATLANTIC LABELS ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH SOME SPINDLE MARKS PER LABEL.

SIDE ONE

GOOD TIMES BAD TIMES
BABE I’M GONNA LEAVE YOU
YOU SHOOK ME
DAZED AND CONFUSED

SIDE TWO

YOUR TIME IS GONNA COME
BLACK MOUNTAIN SIDE
COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN
I CAN’T QUIT YOU BABY
HOW MANY MORE TIMES
