Description
This is an approximately 1970 stereo copy of Led Zeppelin III, Atlantic Recording Corp. catalog No. SD 7201, with NM vinyl showing a few light surface marks and a VG+ jacket, with a record club sticker on the bottom of the back cover, light ring wear and minor corner wear and edge wear.
Led Zeppelin III features several of Led Zeppelin's most well-known tracks, including "Immigrant Song," "Celebration Day," "Gallows Pole" and "Bron-y-aur Stomp." This LP was further enhanced by a two-step cleaning process to reveal the best sound the record is capable of delivering.
This LP began with nice, shiny vinyl. This was enhanced by cleaning on a VPI 16.5 record cleaning machine, and then deep-cleaning on an ultrasonic record cleaning system to reduce the amount of groove noise to extremely low levels.
Cleaning a record on a vacuum record cleaning machine such as the VPI 16.5 will remove airborne debris, dirt, fingerprint residue and other environmental contaminants the LP surfaces have accumulated over the years since it was manufactured. You can hear an immediate improvement.
The ultrasonic cleaning goes even further, removing oils, microscopic bits of dirt and even pressing lubricants from the disc mastering process that may be trapped deep within the grooves. This is the sort of debris and junk that other record cleaning systems often fail to remove. Following the ultrasonic cleaning, the LP surfaces will be quieter, perhaps quieter than most other records in your collection.
Ultrasonic cleaning of a vinyl record, especially a near mint copy such as this, removes a lot of grunge and debris from deep in the record grooves, often resulting in cleaner sound, less distortion, blacker backgrounds between notes, quieter vinyl surfaces and a lower noise floor. With proper care (maybe a light dusting every once in awhile with an Audioquest record brush) and really excellent playback gear, you will often hear musical details you never noticed before.
The record will be carefully packed in a new record mailer and comes with an aftermarket, audiophile style protective outer sleeve and an antistatic inner sleeve. Thanks for looking, and good luck bidding!
