LED ZEPPELIN IV 1971 RARE v2 UK VINYL LP RED/PLUM PETER GRANT labels,plays great
An exact match with this listing on Disocogs - release/5135884-Led-Zeppelin-Untitled- - which states:
This is the 2nd (of 8) verified and known 'plum' label variants. Specific to this label variant are:
Variation label of the 1st pressing - Feather symbol on Side 2 has been corrected and is the right way up. Catalogue number at 3 o'clock above circular Atlantic logo reads 'deluxe 2401012' 'Marketed by Polydor Records Limited' at 6 o'clock on labels. The 'Under licence from Atlantic Recording Corpn., U.S.A.' text is printed above the white centre strip, and omitting the music publisher, "Superhype Music Inc", credit. also it has the distinctive 'Peter Grant' credit at the bottom label.
(The only difference between this and 'version 1' is the side 2 feather is the right way up - all other indicators identical )
A brilliant original example of this rare, sought after version; lovely sleeve, inner in intact condition (often ripped /taped up) - clean vinyl and labels and sounds excellent!
ABOUT THIS COPY:
Matrix / Runout (A-side): 2401012xx// A//3 Matrix / Runout (B-side): 2401012 B//3 PECKO DUCK/PORKY
The gatefold sleeve has a minimal amount of wear and tear,a little rubbing away on corners- the spine and edges etc. are very nice - very nice inside gatefold. no marks - see photos
Original STH lyrics card inner is in great condition , no rips, so intact edges - see photos
Labels look great and have no rips or pen marks, very little centre marks from playback; side one has a slight mark
Vinyl has only light signs of past usage, just a few surface marks /light hairlines if you look closely, very clean overall, - they do not cause any major issues , no jumps on playback , and no loud background
Playback is brilliant - a few run ins have some crackle, but its hardly there - the powerful bitssound great! ... including BOE and STH, which are such a good listen
A great listen overall that nobody could be disapppointed by...
So, a RARE var. 2 plum label, very early release with the Peter Grant credits, (which were covered or removed on subsequent prints)... that has a great gatefold , an original,intact, inner sleeve, and is a great lisen!
Please view all the photos - I am starting with a reasonable bid price FOR THIS , and offers invited. No reserve. (Discogs average overall for v.2 is £264 currently - only a v.1 would go higher)
