Description

A really sweet playing very 1st press of PG on the UK Swan label from 1975. Matrix A1/B4/C1/D1 [earliest known combination]. 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. 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) In lovely condition and has only seen light use. Under close inspection there are precious little markings. Just one surface level mark on the 'Wanton Song'... it is not feelable at all..i.e. it's superficial. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an, at least, EXCELLENT level of playback with one slight deviation. 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. The only deviation is a couple of low-level ticks in the final two seconds of 'Wanton Song' [barely worth mentioning]. A stunning rendition from a genuine very 1st press
Cover (Ex) In outstanding condition - these die-cut covers are really difficult to find looking in well cared for condition. Very unusual to see both front and back looking so clean and unworn. Those die-cut windows are all intact with no wear - again this is certainly not usually the case. Even the edges are barely worn which, I'd say, is extremely unusual. The spines are in excellent condition with all text legible and minimal wear. A bit of stunner quite frankly and would be difficult to match, let alone better.
Insert (Vg+) A bit of grubbiness at the top edge. One slight ring mark on one side.
Inners (Ex+) No issues. No splits. Pristine.

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