Led Zeppelin Physical Graffiti LP UK 1st Issue - Superb Press [Ex+/Vg+]

Description

A really sweet playing 1st Issue of PG on the UK Swan label from 1975. Matrix A1/B5/C1/D1. Please note, importantly, that there are no Warner's logos in the perimeter text on the label - this confirms 1st issue from the time of release. These 1st issues are pressed a tad heavier than later copies and sound absolutely fantastic. Don't short change yourself on one of Zep's best ever releases..Buy the BEST money can buy from an audio perspective, particularly. The vinyl comes housed in an original die-cut outer cover with Cullderstead address. Also included is the internal white credit sheet and both original bespoke inners. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex/Ex+) Bit of a stunner and the surfaces look very clean indeed and have clearly seen only light use. Under close inspection I can't make out more than a couple of very light marks per side - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a mostly EXCELLENT+ level of playback with only very slightest deviation in a couple of spots. The audio is to die for..these early pressings are renowned for delivering a top-level rendition which will not be improved upon. Intros and inbetweens are really nice and quiet and the audio comes across with superb clarity. I'd love to say that many PG copies play clean like this, but this is the exception to the norm. Particularly in those tricky slow-build quiet numbers on side 3/4. This baby delivers a clean rendition without anything annoying in the background in these super fussy tracks. This can only be found on a very lightly used copy. All I can make out are a few minor crackles in a couple of brief isolated moments per side. A stunning rendition which would be difficult to better...
Cover (Vg+) Clean front and back without heavy wear to those die-cut windows. There's a bit of low-level scuffing in the bottom inch of the front and back - not overly noticeable. The spines are pretty decent condition with all text legible - which unusual. The only criticism I could throw at it is that all four corners have a bit of wear, but this is extremely common on this release [nothing excessive]. Overall a very decent looking copy which has survived the years in fine form.
Insert (Vg+) A bit of low-level ageing. Nothing all that obvious.
Inners (Ex) No issues. No splits. Very nice.

Any purchase is guaranteed to get to you quickly, safely, and with total satisfaction, or your money back.
