Notes

'Plum' Atlantic pressing on red/white/plum label.

This is the 5th (of 8) known 'plum' label variants. Specific to this label are:

'Marketed by Polydor Records Limited' at 6 o'clock on labels.

'Under license from Atlantic Recording Corp.' in white area under Atlantic on left side.

Led Zeppelin is printed above spindle hole, Variation 3 had a printed label in smaller type-face, and Variations 1 and 2 had the band name printed below the spindle hole in the 'plum' section.

Catalogue number at 3 o'clock above circular Atlantic logo reads 'deluxe 2401012'

There is no Peter Grant credit on the label but the printed inner sleeve still retains the Executive Producer Peter Grant credit, and song publishing credits are:
Kinney Music Ltd./Superhype Music Inc.

Side 2 has the following error: 'Misty Mountain Hop' is mispelt 'Misty Mountain Top'.

This release was commonly referred to as 'Led Zeppelin IV', to follow in sequence with their previous three releases, but no actual title appears on the release.

VINYL VISUAL : WITH A LOVELY SHEEN, THERE ARE SOME SMALL LIGHT SURFACE MARKS ON SIDE 1 WHICH GAVE A FEW VERY LIGHT BACKGROUND CLICKS DURING 'THE BATTLE OF EVERMORE' AND A FEW VERY LIGHT SURFACE MARKS ON SIDE 2 WHICH DID GIVE JUST A FEW LIGHT BACKGROUND CLICKS ON THE VERY START OF 'GOING TO CALIFORNIA'. THERE ARE A FEW VERY LIGHT SLEEVE REMOVAL MARKS VISIBLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT WHICH DON'T SOUND AT ALL. PLAYED QUITE A FEW TIMES IN TOTAL THEN STORED. VISUALLY VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION.

VINYL PLAYBACK : VERY NICE, WITH A LOUD CUT FIRST PRESS BASSY SOUND. I EVEN HAD TO TURN THE VOLUME DOWN. THERE AR A FEW VERY LIGHT RANDOM BACKGROUND CLICKS AS MENTIONED ABOVE, BUT NOTHING INTRUSIVE. THE WHOLE OF THE ALBUM HAS VIRTUALLY NO CRACKLE AT ALL, JUST A VERY TINY AMOUNT IN THE RUN IN GROOVES TO SIDE 2 FOR A FEW SECONDS. THE WHOLE ALBUM HAS THE DYNAMIC MUSIC CRISP AND RIGHT TO THE FORE, THERE IS NOTHING AT ALL THAT DETRACTS FROM A SUPERB SOUNDING ALBUM. NO SKIPS, HEAVY CLICKS OR JUMPS. THIS STILL SOUNDS SUPERB, ESPECIALLY 'WHEN THE LEVEE BREAKS' MY FAVOURITE TRACK ON THE ALBUM.
THEREFORE OVERALL IN EXCELLENT TOP AUDIO CONDITION. A LOVELY AUDIO COPY.

THE SPINE IS STILL CRISP BUT WITH SOME FLATTENING AND EDGE RUBBING WEAR. VERY MINIMAL RINGWEAR OR RUBBING MARKS AT THE TOP EDGES. THE OPENING EDGE HAS A LITTLE FEATHERING AND ONE NICK NEAR THE MIDDLE ON THE REVERSE. A DECENT SLEEVE.
OVERALL IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. PLEASE SEE THE NUMEROUS PICTURES.
