UK original first pressing on the red/maroon Atlantic record label. This was released in 1969.

Album Information:

For many the greatest rock album of all time - a monumental classic that all serious collectors want in their collection. ‘Whole Lotta Love’ remains the definitive heavy rock anthem. The album justifiably charted at Number 1 in the UK and US. After the raw brilliance of the heavy blues rock of their debut, ‘II’ expands the horizons still further. Page, Plant, Jones and Bonham rarely ever sounded better than on this massive issue. All rock fans and collectors will know this album well already – it’s content is legendary and it simply refuses to age or its classic status dimish. This is one of the ‘Most Wanted’ albums ever issued, and so it should be.

The Hi-Fi Zeppelin Experience: This proves beyond any doubt, not that there was much doubt anyway, that an original vinyl record will blow away any other format (and I rather partial those those wonderful Japanese card format CDs these days). The sound on this album is simply awesome and I use the word in its true context because this simply takes the breath away. If anybody has not heard an original Led Zeppelin II on the early ‘Plum’ labels they have not lived. This will shake the foundations (and damn near did), the inherent power, scale, drama, dynamics, detail and stereo imagery are phenomenal and give that rare tingle factor only the truly great recordings ever can. Listen to that massive ‘slam’ on ‘Whole Lotta Love’ and the channel to channel guitar pyrotechnics, this is hi-fi nirvana. The drum parts on ‘Moby Dick’ have such realism the kit could have almost been in the room. The colossal low frequency on ‘Whole Lotta Love’ will test any amp and speakers to the limit and the sound can simply saturate on even mid-priced systems.

The word ‘essential’ and ‘classic’ are both overused (I too am guilty sometimes when offering a beautiful condition piece for a favourite title), but I make no apology for using them for this groundbreaking (and earth-shattering) album. Timeless vintage blues-rock the likes that will never be equalled. This original version with ‘The Lemon Song’ lebel credit.
