Description
*I am currently selling a collection of Heavy Metal and rock LPs, predominantly from the mid 70’s to the early 90’s but with the odd outlier thrown in. All well looked after and some real rarities. I combine shipping and always remove the vinyl from the sleeve before packing and posting. Where anything other than a generic white inner is present, the vinyl is always placed in a brand new white inner to preserve the original. Brand new ‘clear glass’ plastic sleeves are added to all LPs. I describe items accurately as I know how disappointing it is to receive a much anticipated record where flaws have been glossed over or gone unmentioned. I try to listen to each record before describing it but if I don’t have time I will listen to selected parts to gauge the level of background noise and I will always listen to any passages where there are surface marks to judge the impact these have. I always give positive feedback after payment so the customer is able to give feedback purely judged on the service once they have received the item. If you are unhappy in any way I will refund with no questions asked. Thank you for your interest in this listing and please check out my other records.*

Led Zeppelin
The Soundtrack from the film The Song Remains the Same
Stunning copy of Led Zeppelin’s first live album.
An incredibly well preserved original copy with A2 matrix etched out to be replaced by A1. Other three sides are B1, C1, D3 and as such represent a very rare and early copy.
The sleeve is as close to Mint as imaginable for a 44 year old record and could have come straight from the record store. Aside from a hint of wear on the top edge that does nothing to effect the overall grading, this copy is immaculate: very Near Mint. Internally it is Mint - the attached booklet crisp and untouched.
The original black inners are also Near Mint. Notorious for seam splits, these are incredibly well preserved and the vinyls are stored in new polylined white inners to preserve the originals.
The vinyls are incredible. Seemingly barely played they sound amazing. I notice a few hairline marks on Side 3 and one on side 4 but overall the vinyls are easily Near Mint throughout.
Here is the pressing info:
Gatefold sleeve with an attached 8 page colour booklet inside.
Plain black inners.
Recorded live at Madison Square Garden.
All titles published by Warner Bros Music/SuperHype Music.
Some versions have an additional Side 1 runout variation where as well as having SSK 89402 A1 stamped, it also has SSK 89401 A2 stamped but that text is struck-through. (This copy is an example of this)
Matrix / Runout (Side A Stamped): SSK 89402 A1
Matrix / Runout (Side B Stamped): SSK 89402 B1
Matrix / Runout (Side C Stamped): SSK 89402 C1
