On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Led Zeppelin called "Led Zeppelin" and is an 1969 UK Pressing on the Red/Maroon (Plum) Atlantic label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS WAS LED ZEPPELINS FIRST LP EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE (LIKE THIS!)!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  IT IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs EVER MADE - AND IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT HAS THE RARE 'SILVER LINE' COVER (WITH THE SILVER LINE AT THE BOTTOM ON THE COVER FRONT!), AND A//1 'A SIDE' MATRIX & ULTRA RARE 'CORRECTED' 'Av4 B-SIDE' MATRIX WITH EXTRA GAPS (BARELY ANY WERE EVER MADE LIKE THIS ON THIS LABEL!)!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT - BUT THE LABELS ARE VERY DIFFERENT ON THIS ULTRA RARE PRESSING TOO, AND ONLY EVER LASTED A TINY AMOUNT OF TIME LIKE THIS!!!!  FIRSTLY THE TITLE 'LED ZEPPELIN' HAS SHRUNK IN SIZE AND HAS BEEN MOVED DOWN TOWARDS THE CENTRE OF THE LABEL!!!!  SECONDLY THERE IS NO SPACING BETWEEN THE 'LED ZEPPELIN' TITLE ON THE LABEL - AND THE WORD 'STEREO' ABOVE IT (USUALLY THERE IS A LARGE GAP!)!!!!  THIRDLY THE WORD 'STEREO' (WHICH IS NORMALLY LOCATED AT THE TOP OF THE LABELS!) HAS BEEN SHRUNK IN SIZE AND MOVED DOWN THE LABELS TOWARDS THE CENTRE!!!!  AND LASTLY THE CREDITS ON THE BOTTOM OF EACH LABEL ARE LISTED IN '2 LINES' INSTEAD OF THE COMMON 'ONE LINE' ARRANGEMENT!!!!  ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES WERE EVER MADE WITH THESE ULTRA RARE LABELS - AND MAKE THIS LP FAR FAR RARER THAN NORMAL (BARELY ANY ARE EVER SEEN LIKE THIS!)!!!!

AS DETAILED ABOVE!!!!  MOST SALES OF THIS LP TOOK PLACE EARLIER IN 1969, WHEN THIS LP WAS SELLING HUGELY!!!!  BUT BY THE TIME THIS LP WAS 'CORRECTED' IN LATE 1969/EARLY 1970 - SALES HAD FALLEN DRASTICALLY!!!!  AND SO WHILST FINDING A 'RED/MAROON' LABELLED EXAMPLE WITH A1/B1 MATRIXES (AND NORMAL GAPS) IS VERY COMMON INDEED - FINDING AN ULTRA RARE 'CORRECTED' VERSION (WITH 'EXTRA GAPS'!) IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  The Cat. No is 588 171 on the Red/Maroon Atlantic label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo Pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!  All the tracks are Pure quality Led Zeppelin at their best!!!!  Any fan of Led Zeppelin, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection - especially in this condition!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks AT ALL, only 1 VERY light hairline, only 2 long fingernail type scufflines (completely NON sounding!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK - AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some typical slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent record indeed!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its 'Die-cut' inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The 'Orange Lettered' FULLY Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), NO rips, only a MEGA thin line of laminate lifting along the spinal edge, NO tears, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to a couple of the EXTREME corner tips ONLY, NO annotations, VERY shiny laminate, NO splits, only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the laminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, only a MEGA thin line of laminate lifting along the spinal edge, VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (ESPECIALLY WITH THE ULTRA RARE 'CORRECTED' B SIDE MATRIX & EXTRA GAPS!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
