Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin IV

The fourth album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin was released on 8 November 1971. No title is printed on the album, so it is generally referred to as Led Zeppelin IV, following the naming standard used by the band's first three studio albums. The album has alternatively been referred to as , Four Symbols, The Fourth Album (those two titles each having been used in the Atlantic catalogue), Untitled, The Runes, The Hermit, and ZoSo, the latter of which is derived from the symbol used by Jimmy Page for the album sleeve. ZoSo has subsequently been used as moniker for Jimmy Page. Upon its release, Led Zeppelin IV was a commercial and critical success. The album is one of the best-selling albums worldwide at 32 million units. It has shipped over 23 million units in the United States alone, making it the third-best-selling album ever in the US. In 2003, the album was ranked 66th on Rolling Stone magazine's list of "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time".

Very Good ++ (VG++) = Disc plays near perfectly, but may have minor paper scuffs that do not interfere with the sound quality. There can possibly be a hairline scratch or two but nothing that is obvious or affects play. Album Cover = Minor disc impression or slight corner creases, no wrinkles, puckers, seam splits or writing on the cover. Artwork is clean and unworn and there is no ink wear.

Very Good Plus (VG+) = Some visible surface wear, very minor scratches and scuffs, but minimal impact on the sound quality. Vinyl will still have good luster; labels may have minor imperfections (small labels or initials, etc.) but otherwise clean. Album Cover = clean but may have minor writing or marks and may show slight wear. There may be just the start of ring wear, where the disc has created a raised area on the cover that resulted in the ink wearing off the paper. There may be slight discoloration or staining, minor seam wear, but no splits or tears. Corners may have small creases or fraying.

Very Good (VG) = Vinyl surface will show wear, including surface scuffs and scratches. Surface noise is noticeable, and there may be a few clicks or pops during soft passages. On loud rock albums surface noise is mostly apparent between tracks. However, the record is still very listenable. The cover may have creases, have record store cut corners or a punched hole and may have noticeable ring wear and spine wear, but it will still have most of its original gloss. Cover may have minor writing, stains, or age related yellowing, and white covers especially begin to show more scuffing and yellowing with age than darker covers in this grade.  There will be no seam splits longer than 1”.

Good (G) = Vinyl surface has general scuffing and scratching all over.  Surface noise is very apparent between tracks. There will be repetitive clicks or pops. There may be backward & forward skips. The album will still be listenable and enjoyable in a party setting, but not when listening critically in a quiet room. Records with many quiet music passages will not be enjoyable in these grades. Covers will vary in quality and may have prominent seam splits (that are taped over or not), scuffing, and ring wear, with only some of the original gloss left.  There may be staining, water damage, tearing and writing on the cover.

LP will be sent in a Sturdy Container with FRAGILE & DO NOT BEND stamped in Red on box.
