Description

I am parting with some of my treasured LPs.  Here is Led Zep's 5th LP, Houses of the Holy.  The cover, featuring the naked back sides of children made it so that this LP was banned in the southern US for 3 years.  The band didn't want to put their name on the cover as the did with Zep 4, but wound up caving into pressure over the cover image, and added a sleeve that covered the objectionable by some image.  This particular  LP was pressed 3 years after the original pressings in 73.  There wound up being an incredible demand for this LP 3 years after the release due to both the success of Stairway to Heaven on Zep 4, and the huge 77 tour that brought out new fans, and hence LP sales.  This is a beautiful NM pressing with just a hint of background sounds in the quiet areas.  It looks as if brand new, with a beautiful shine to it.  The cover is EX, but with some minor ring wear on both front and back, and small dings on the corners.  the bottom left corner being the biggest ding of maybe 1/4" with a 1/8" loss of paper on that area of the spine.  The original inner is beautiful, but has a small bend at the bottom where someone must have held it. It is minor, but worth mentioning.  The LP plays beautifully.
