LED ZEPPELIN I
AND THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERB !!!!

THIS IS A VERY RARE CHANCE TO GET YOUR HANDS ON A BIT OF PROG ROCK HISTORY, AS THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1969 UK PRESS  A // 1 / B // 1, VERY EARLY PRESSING, WHICH WILL BE EXPLAINED BELOW....
AS MY SISTER ROSE IS AN EXPERT ON VINYL, AND ESPECIALLY ZEPPELIN, I HAVE HAD TO ASK FOR HER HELP, SO THIS IS WHAT SHE RECOMMENDED TO FIND OUT WHAT PRESSING IT IS.
FIRSTLY THE BORING BIT TO EXPLAIN WHAT PRESSING THIS IS.....

1. Label: This Version 1 has Turquoise sleeve lettering and Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels.
2. Label: This Version 2 as Version 1, but this issue has on side one the "Superhype mis-credit label", label lists songs 1, "3", 4 as Superhype Music and then 3 again as Jewel Music.
3. Label: This Version 3 has Orange sleeve lettering with grey stripe across the base of the front cover, uncorrected stamped matrix number and (Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels).
4. Label: This Version 4 as Version 3, but with difference of the corrected stamped matrix number and again with Superhype mis-credit on label side one as Version 2).
5. Label: This Version 5 has Orange sleeve lettering with the corrected stamped matrix number on both sides which have the second 8 scratched out and (Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels).
6. Label: The Version 6 has Orange sleeve lettering with Grey stripe at bottom on front cover and without Superhype credits with instead Warner Bros/7 Arts. Publishing credit printed in one line on the labels.
7. Label: The Version 7 as Version 6, but with Warner Bros/7 Arts. Publishing credit printed in two lines on the labels.
8. Label: The Version 8 as Version 7, but without the Grey stripe at bottom on front sleeve.
9. Label: The Version 9 as Version 6, but has Warner Bros/7 Arts /Jewel Music Publishing credits printed in one line on label side One and Superhype /Jewel Music on label side Two printed in two lines.
10. Label: The Version 10 as Version 6, but has Warner Bros./7. Arts Jewel Music Publishing credits printed in one line on label side One and Warner Bros. 7. Arts Jewel Music Publishing credits printed in one line on label side Two but without the "/" in between Warner Bros. and 7. Arts.
11. Label: The Version 11 as Version 6 with the Warner Bros./7. Arts Jewel Music Publishing credits printed on both labels but the track listing text is spread out. Sleeve: Version 1 with Turquoise sleeve lettering with grey stripe across the base of the front cover and corrected stamped matrix number.
SO THE ONE LISTED BELOW, IS THE FIRST LABEL PRESSED WITHOUT THE, 'SUPERHYPE' CREDIT ON THE LABEL, AND SO IS... Label: The Version 6 has Orange sleeve lettering with Grey stripe at bottom on front cover and without Superhype credits with instead Warner Bros/7 Arts. Publishing credit printed in one line on the labels. 

THIS IS LED ZEPPELIN, AND WERE FORMED IN LONDON IN 1968, AND FINISHED IN 1980. I MUST AGREE WITH MY SISTER, AS THEY ARE THE BEST ROCK BAND EVER. THIS IS THEIR FIRST AND SO DEBUT ALBUM, RELEASED IN 1969.

PLAYS BEAUTIFUL.

THIS 1969 ORIGINAL UK VERSION 6,  IS PRESSED ON THE  RED AND PLUM ATLANTIC LABEL ( AS DESCRIBED ABOVE ).

ON THE LABELS THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS  588171.

IN THE RUN OFFS IT HAS, 588171 (WITH THE SECOND '8' CORRECTED, WITH ANOTHER '8' ABOVE IT)  A//1  /  588171 (WITH THE SECOND '8' CORRECTED, WITH ANOTHER '8' ABOVE IT)  B//1. 

THE COVER IS AN ORIGINAL UK PRESS WITH ORANGE COLOURED WRITING, AND SILVER STRIP ALONG THE BOTTOM ON THE FRONT. THE SPINE AND EDGES HAVE NO RUB, JUST A RUB ON EACH CORNER. THERE ARE SOME LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE OUTER EDGES, WITH THE ONES ON THE SPINE EDGES, BROWN IN COLOUR, FROM AGE. THERE IS ALSO A BIT OF LAMINATE LIFT, WHICH IS ALSO ON THE SPINE SIDE EDGE, ON BOTH SIDES, BUT STILL A VERY PRESENTABLE ORIGINAL COVER.

THE VINYL AS IT IS AN 'A//1 / B//1', IT PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, AND TO FIND THIS ALBUM, AND A UK EARLY RED PLUM PRESS WITH AUDIO LIKE THIS, IS VERY HARD TO FIND, SO YOU WILL NOT HEAR ANY NASTY STICKS, SKIPS, JUMPS, STATIC, CRACKLE, POPS, OR CLICKS.

ON SIDE 1, PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, JUST TWO FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACK 1 AND TRACK 2.

ON SIDE 2, AGAIN, PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK JUST AFTER THE START OF TRACK 2.

TO LOOK AT THE VINYL, FIRSTLY THERE IS NOTHING NASTY VISIBLE, AND ONLY WHEN YOU HOLD THE VINYL A CERTAIN WAY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT, THERE ARE JUST A FEW FAINT HARMLESS COSMETIC LINES FROM WHERE THE VINYL HAS BEEN REMOVED AND REPLACED INTO THE INNER SLEEVE.

THE LABELS ARE IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION, BUT THERE IS A BIT OF WRITING, FAINT ON LABEL 1, AND A BIT MORE NOTICEABLE ON LABEL 2, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES.

THE ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER NO SPLITS OR WRITING BUT THERE IS SOME AGEING ESPECIALLY AROUND THE EDGES, AND I WILL PUT THE VINYL IN A BRAND NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL.

SO ONTO THE THE GRADING SIDE OF THINGS, AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING I AM ALWAYS ON THE OTHER END TO ANSWER....

THE COVER AS DESCRIBED ABOVE I WOULD GRADE VG+ .

THE AUDIO AS DESCRIBED ABOVE I WOULD GRADE EX+/NEAR MINT . 

THE LABELS AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, AND DUE ONLY TO THE WRITING I WOULD GRADE EX .

THE ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER AS DESCRIBED ABOVE I WOULD GRADE VG/VG- .

PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, FULLY COMPLETE, AND RARE TO FIND AN ORIGINAL WITH AUDIO LIKE THIS ONE HAS. ALSO COMES IN ORIGINAL COVER AND INNER.

WITH NO BUYERS PROTECTION FEE TO PAY.

I MUST SAY THAT I WILL BE LISTING SOME GREAT ALBUMS SOON, BUT I NEED TO GET SOME MORE SALES UNDER MY BELT, SO THE AUCTIONS WILL GO BETTER, IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, THANK YOU.
