Led Zeppelin

II 

UK Lp

SUPERB AUDIO

(UNUSUAL LABELS: "Lemon Song" credit)

Ultrasonically cleaned and then listened to-ALL THE WAY THROUGH.

Released in October 1969, this Lp was the follow up to the hugely successful Zeppelin I... & what an album...Being the groups very first album to reach No. 1 in both the UK and the USA.

The album production was entirely credited to Jimmy Page.

(as a little note: In November of 1999 the album was certified 12X platinum!!)

Catalogue Number: K 40037

Green and Orange label.

2nd Reissue-With "Made In UK" at 9 O'clock on the labels.

Matrix Numbers:

ETCHED

Side 1: K 40037 A4

Side 2: K 40037 B4

With STRAWBERRY stamped into each run-out groove.

The Vinyl:

EX.

Side 1 barely has a mark on her visually-with side 2 having more light marks, but nothing to affect playback....All I noticed was two soft background pops at the start of What Is And What Shall Never Be-insignificant really. With some light crackle in the break-down of Thank you...Just reminded me this is a slab of analogue vinyl and not a digital reproduction.

Being one of my favourite albums of all time-it really wasn't a chore to listen to her through at HIGH volume!!

SUPERB, CLEAR sound reproduction..Super-Deep bass, with clean and clear highs.

Only very light and VERY occasional brief background noise found in the very quiet sections-mainly static!

FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN.

SO GOOD-I LISTENED TO HER AGAIN!

The Labels:

NEAR MINT!!

Green and Orange labels. There's hardly any wear to these labels at all...Please see the images....MAGICAL.

This is the 2nd re-issue. With the Warner "W" but without the "Manufactured In" statement at 9 O'Clock.

----BUT----

This label includes "The Lemon Song" credit, rather than "Killing Floor" which is normally on the 2nd re-issue..The "Lemon Song" song title was on the 1st re-issue (without the "W") and on the 3rd re-issue (Without the "Manufactured In" text)....VERY UNUSUAL TRANSITIONAL LABELS.

NO WRITING

**COLLECTABLE IN HER OWN RIGHT**

TRACK LISTING:

Side One:

Whole Lotta Love

What is and what Should Never Be

The Lemon Song

Thank You!

Livin’ Lovin’ Maid (She's Just a Woman)

The Cover:

NEAR MINT-!

Later darker printing..With very little wear, as can be seen in the detailed images provided.

These darker 'chocolate coloured' covers are notorious for light ring wear....But not this one..

The spine has just some very slight corner rubbing-that is all!

"Sleeve printed and made in England by Gothic Print Finishers Ltd. London SE9"

AN UPGRADE OF A SLEEVE HERE

The Inner:

Near Mint-

Plain white die-cut period inner.

"MADE IN ENGLAND"

No splits or writing.

Certainly done her job, by looking after this wonderful slab of vinyl after all these years.

WELL FOLKS-THIS REALLY IS AN UPGRADE TO ANY 2nd RE-PRESSING COPY YOU MAY HAVE. THIS BABY COMES FROM MY OWN VAULT AND WAS A PURE JOY TO TURN UP AND GRADE.

YOU COULDN'T GET MUCH BETTER!
