Description

 

Led Zeppelin’s fourth (and some would say best) album, catalogue No. 2401012 on the Atlantic Red/Plum label. An excellent example of this original 1971 UK first pressing. This has the famous ‘Pecko Duck’ and ‘Porky’ etchings in the run off grooves on each side. As with all these early Zeppelin pressings the power they got into those grooves is astonishing ! This recording has a tremendous power and presence that surges out of the speakers and (very pleasantly) kicks you in the aural senses !! Bonzo’s drums are always a revelation and here it feels like you’re right there with him when He’s pounding out ‘Four Sticks’ and ‘When The Levee Breaks’. The detail and clarity of the quieter passages in ‘Stairway’ and ‘The Battle Of Evermore’ are wonderful. Play it at number 11 and hear why its one of the best albums ever made by any band anywhere !! Amazing !! The vinyl has a glossy sheen, only a few scuffs and very little surface noise, apparent in only some quieter passages. I cant remember any clicks throughout the whole record and I would grade the vinyl as at least EXCELLENT. The sleeve is in good order also. There is a little wear apparent on the edges and spine and the colours are still strong. This I would grade as EXCELLENT. The soft card inner sleeve is also in fine order apart from a split along the bottom. Very common for this inner.. A previous owner has written the times to the tracks on side one (but not side two ?!) in small letters next the track names. Lastly, the labels. The labels are in fine condition, again the colours are as vibrant as they were in 71’. There are minimal spindle marks and no wear to the centre hole. A great example of an awesome record by an awesome band captured at the height of their powers !!
