Livin' Lovin' Wreck & Lemon Song Credits
This cover has the mega rare greenish/blue tinge to the spine which was only found with a handful of the very first UK releases. Try finding another! Led Zep collectors will know just how rare this cover is - I have only seen one other of these greenish/blue tinged spine covers in the 40+ years since it was released. It is, of course, a very first day of issue sleeve and therefore has the day-of issue 1st pressing vinyl with the Livin Lovin Wreck and Lemon Song credits on the labels.
Cover: E J Day unlaminated light brown 1st pressing gatefold cover with the ultra rare grrenish-blue spine. No writings/doodles or seam splits. Some light wear/age spotting. Outside is Near Excellent and inside is Excellent+. The rare spine shows a little wear but most of the original colour is nice and clear - see scans. I have tried my best to show the difference between regular 1st pressings and greenish-blue ones by scanning both alongside each other. The greenish/blue one is on the right in the scan.
Labels: Near Mint.
Vinyl: Play tested. Heavy duty 1st pressing vinyl. Looks VG but amazingly it plays Near Excellent - plays much better than it looks. Feathering and hairlines but no feelable scratches. No skips/jumps. Has some slight crackle in places but still sounds fab to me. These heavy duty UK 1st pressings really do stand the test of time - the quality of 1st pressings is phenomenal after 40+ years of regular play. Play it loud for best results!
Postage & packaging: £4 (UK) £8.50 (EUROPE - signed for) & £10.50 (REST OF THE WORLD - signed for)
