This is a US 1st pressing, featuring Robert Ludwig's so called "HOT" mastering on both sides. These were withdrawn early because the high bass levels caused low-grade cartridges to jump, leading people to return the album on the belief that it was defective. Another engineer was then hired to recut a much less "hot" version of the album, and that is the far more common version.
Sleeve
There is some minor wear on the spine - see photos but overall in very good condition, stiff with no splits
Vinyl
No major marking on vinyl - see photos
There is some minor crackle in places but nothing that overpowers the music.
No scratches or skips
The music sounds magnificent with great detail. This is the way this LP was meant to be heard. Playing the RL version and Standard remix side by side, and at the same volume shows how much more powerful this version is!
This is a Led Zeppelin II to cherish!
