Description
LED ZEPPELIN 4
ORIGINAL VERY 1st PRESS
PLUM ATLANTIC LABEL
CAT No 2401012
PAGE/GRANT CREDIT.
THIS IS THE VERY FIRST PRESS OF THIS FANTASTIC ALBUM AS THERE ARE THREE LABEL VARIATIONS!
ALL ORIGINAL 1st PRESSINGS HAVE THE 'LED ZEPPELIN TITLE BELOW THE CENTRAL WHITE BAR, ABOVE PAGE/GRANT CREDIT, ON LATER RELEASES 'LED ZEPPELIN WAS ABOVE THE WHITE BAR.
ON ITS RELEASE PAGE TOOK GREAT EXCEPTION TO PETER GRANT BEING GIVEN AN 'EXECUTIVE PRODUCER' CREDIT AND THE LABELS WERE WITHDRAWN, BUT RATHER THAN SCRAP THE FEW LABELS REMAINING, STICKERS WERE PRINTED AND PLACED OVER THE GRANT CREDIT NAMING JIMMY PAGE ONLY AS PRODUCER, ALSO 'LED ZEPPELIN' STICKERS WERE PLACED AT THE TOP OF THE LABEL.
THE THIRD PRESS LABEL STATES 'LED ZEPPELIN' AT THE TOP AND NAMES JIMMY PAGE ONLY AS PRODUCER.
NOT MANY OF THESE VERY FIRST PRESSINGS ARE AROUND
THIS ONE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION
'PECKO DUCK' ETCHED IN RUN OFF ON SIDE 1,
'PORKY' ON SIDE 2.
VINYL IS NICE AND BRIGHT, STUNNING DEEP LUSTRE
PLAY GRADED ON MY LINN LP12 T/TABLE, PLAYBACK WAS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING.
THE SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION,JUST SOME FAIRLY MINOR CORNER BUMPS.
COMES WITH ITS ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE WITH THE 'STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN' LYRICS
HAS A 4 INCH SEAM SPLIT AT THE BOTTOM FROM WERE THE RECORD HAS BEEN PUT IN
( I HAVE YET TO SEE ONE THATS NOT )
IN CONCLUSION A GREAT ALBUM IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, AND A GENUINE FIRST PRESS
FROM 40 YEARS AGO THIS MONTH
( I SAW THEM ON THE 24th NOV 1971 AT MANCHESTER FREE TRADE HALL )
DONT MISS OUT ON THIS ONE.
