Lemon Song is on side 1 (litigation copy)
Led zeppelin II recorded on their "mayhem tours" in USA in 1969, this is very much the sound of a band at work and finding their direction.
The classic tracks are here by the bucketful, Whole Lotta Love, Lemon Song, Heartbreaker all jump off the grooves with incredible clarity.
Page got what he wanted here soundwise and the mixing done at various locations dictated by tour schedule are a credit to the producer.
This recording really put Zeppelin on the map and Atlantic had to give the highest advance to make sure Peter Grants Boys didn't look elsewhere, one of the greatest acts in rock history were in business to stay for a long time to come.
Very early Litigation copy !
Only the very first presses came out with the "Living Loving Wreck" and "Lemon Song" On the label, the "wreck" was corrected to "Livin Lovin Maid" and also "Lemon Song" changed to "Killing Floor"
this was hastily retitled on Peter Grants orders on later presses for fear of impending litagation from the estate of "blind lemon jefferson"
Grab yourself a piece of rock history!
These are impossible to find in good order now and so so collectable £700 is not unusual! £1000+ has been seen for a near excellent!
This is a copy in excellent condition minor surface lines on side one of the LP... Sleeve in excelent to near mint condition.
This is an affordable way to own a "living lovin wreck" under £500.
On this record also Plant gets songwriting credits for the first time as he is considered "permanent" following US reaction to the 12 month old line up.
Royal Mail recorded delivery.
