Description

An original 1st press Zep II killer copy by Atlantic in the UK. Matrix A2/B2 - 1st cut. 1st pressings are often identifiable by the track KF still showing as Lemon Song. The heavy-set vinyl comes housed in an original gatefold cover by E J Day. We also have a plastic bag warning inner too.
Vinyl (Ex) In really great condition and has only seen light use. Under close inspection I can only make out a couple of slight marks per side - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an, at least, EXCELLENT level of playback with a couple of slightest deviations. Very rarely will I find a Zep II original copy that gets close to this level. And when you get to witness one on a good system...you'll get to realise why folks make a big fuss about the early Red&PLum copies. The dynamics they managed to pack onto these early copies is just awesome. Bone crunchingly heavy guitar. I don't care what fancy super duper reissue says it can manage. Nothing gets close to an original clean player. When you get the lowkey break in WLL WIAWSNB - there's just a quiet background. It means you can really get to hear Plants vocal echoes properly. Expect just the odd few crackles in one spot per side (at worst). FLOOR is absolutely killer. You can find decent original copies - but the lightly used well preserved copies only pop up now and again. Mores the pity! Slow run/build into THANKY YOU - really clean...a couple of crackles at worst.. MOST copies just will not deliver that. HIGHLY accomplished in every way. Percussive tapping on the way into 'RAMBLE'...is astonishingly good. At worst maybe one isolated tick per side. Lowkey intro Bring It On Home...rarely plays clean. Really impressive.
Cover (Vg) Original covers are hellishly difficult to find in decent condition. This example is pretty nice looking - probably about average. Nice clean and flat front with not much sign of ageing. Interior looks very well preserved. Nice firm openings panel. The rear looks really good with some handling. A fair bit of edge wear in places - nothing problematic at all. Spine is reasonably worn - so text is mostly illegible now. But it is still solid. Overall the cover retains excellent rigidity.
Inner (Vg+) very smart minimal ageing. Bag present. No splits. Some writing at the top.
