Description


Led Zeppelin’s fourth (and some would say best) album, catalogue No. 2401012 on the Atlantic Red/Plum label. A great example of this original 1971 UK FIRST PRESSING. This has the famous ‘Pecko Duck’ and ‘Porky’ etchings in the run off grooves on each side and the oddly more rare 'Misty Mountain HOP' correct spelling. As with all these early Zeppelin pressings the power they got into those grooves is astonishing ! This recording has tremendous power and surges out of the speakers and (very pleasantly) kicks you in the aural senses !! Bonzo’s drums are always a revelation and here it feels like you’re right there with him when He’s pounding out ‘Four Sticks’ and ‘When The Levee Breaks’. There are no clicks or pops throughout the whole record  Some surface crackles in the very quietest parts but not all of them. I would grade the vinyl as VG+ . The cover  (which may be a replacement) grades as EXCELLENT with no defects.  The inner sleeve grades as VG+ with a very small tear to the top opening edge a 6cm split at the bottom. Very common for this inner. A great example of an awesome record by an awesome band captured at the height of their powers !!
