Description

font rwr"1" style"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial;" size"4"Here we the most collectable version of LED ZEPPELIN's 2nd Album.  Titled ; "LED ZEPPELIN II" (1969), this is the second LP from the band. /fontdivfont rwr"1" style"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial;" size"4"br/font/divdivfont rwr"1" style"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial;" size"4"  This is a COLLECTOR'S ITEM, it being quite RARE in this particular form. The rarity comes from the mis-credit of the title of the song "Livin' Lovin' Maid (She's A Woman)" as "Wreck" instead of "Maid" . This was quickly corrected on subsequent (inc. 2nd) Pressings. This VERY FIRST PRESSING has the Matrix of 588 198  Av2 / Bv2  (my v should be an upside down triangle, but I can't find it on my keyboard !). This FIRST PRESSING also has "THE LEMON SONG" credit which was corrected to "Killing Floor" on later pressings. This FIRST PRESSING also has the Lighter Brown Gatefold SLEEVE which became a Darker Brown on later Issues./font/divdivfont rwr"1" style"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial;" size"4"br/font/divdivCondition :-/divdivdivfont face"Arial" size"4"  VINYL :-  Side 1 :- Visually VERY GOOD (some visible surface marks); However it can only be Play Graded as GOOD;  this is because it jumps 4 or, 5 times at the start of the vocal on track 1 ("Whole Lotta Love"), & several times on track 3 ("The Lemon Song") at the start of the song, this is due to an almost invisible "in-groove" scratch.The rest (large majority) of the Side plays really well with a Great deep Sound overall./font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"                  Side 2 :- Vis. VERY GOOD- (some visible surface marks & scratches on track 1 which causes several jumps during the earlier part of "Heartbreaker"); the rest of the Side (the vast majority) Plays really well. Great Dynamic Sound./font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"  SLEEVE :- VERY GOOD  (wear worn Spine & Edges; otherwise EXCELLENT)./font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"  SPINE:-  VERY GOOD- ( a couple of small nicks & some Title letter rub) ./font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"br/font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"So, a truly Collectable LP, but with a few serious faults. Hence, the greatly reduced starting price (I would have started @ 99.99 if it were Excellent). You do get crackingly good, faultless renditions of the classic "What Is And What Should Never Be", "Livin' Lovin' Maid (She's A Woman)"  & "Ramble On"., as well as 3 others./font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"The value in this copy, for me, was the Collectable misprinted label ("Wreck") & the FIRST PRESSING. For listening, I play my other (later) pressing. /font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"br/font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"                                                 Overall Graded @ GOOD ./font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"br/font/divdivfont face"Arial" size"4"** I'm also including an article from Melody Maker around the same time (I kept it in the LP Sleeve).**    /font/divdivspan style"font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"br/span/divdivspan style"font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"                                                    See photos for more details./span/divdivbr/divdivdiv style"font-size: 14pt;"divfont rwr"1" style"font-family:Arial" size"4"br/font/divdivfont rwr"1" style"font-family:Arial" size"4" Overseas posting is via the Global Shipping Programme./font/divdivfont rwr"1" style"font-family:Arial" size"4"     br     Please buy with confidence (See my 100% Positive Feedback record).
