Description

 Up for sale is a very rare copy of Led Zeppelin I on the purple/brown "Atco" label style pressing. Below are more details:

(Atco) purple/brown Stereo labels that were only produced on Atlantic releases when pressed at RCA Records Pressing plant, Indianapolis. Some say these issues are "club" issues but no proof on release. Others feel that these were created from stock Atco labels to fill the need. "Club" or press error, a very rare label.

From bsnpubs: This label is rare and only appeared on a few titles from around 8130 to 8200. The Led Zeppelin album error commands premium prices, since not only is the label in error, but side 1 of the album is a different mix from the regular pressing.

Also side 2 does sound a little different from the standard issue. There is a long pause between "Black Mountain Side" and "Communication Breakdown", where the standard issue had no silence at all. And there is an unusually long silence between "Communication Breakdown" and "I Can't Quit You Baby", much longer than was on the standard issue.

Jacket is VG. Record has many surface marks and scratches; will definitely pop and tick but probably won't skip. I have a $400 stylus so I won't put anything below a VG+ on my table even to play test. Grading it as VG-/G+

Shipping is USPS Media Mail or USPS First Class International. No returns accepted
