THIS IS A RARE STICKERED LABEL 1ST PRESS .

The very 1st Led Zeppelin iv pressed albums had 'executive producer Peter Grant' under 'Jimmy Page' at the bottom of the label. Jimmy Page (allegedly) was furious at the presence of an Executive Production credit to Peter Grant  and as a hasty correction, stickers were applied to remove this credit and also to correct the erroneous publishing credits from “Kinney Music Ltd” to “Kinney Music Ltd./Superhype Music Inc.”. To make room for this sticker (which obliterated the band’s name from the bottom half of the label), a second sticker “LED ZEPPELIN” was added to the top half of the label, beneath the four symbols. This A very collectable piece of Zeppelin vinyl history !!!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1ST PRESS :: A//3  ::  B//3 .

ON THE RED PLUM ATLANTIC LABEL :: 2401012 . 

COVER :: ORIGINAL GATEFOLD WITH DARK GOLD GLOW ON THE LANTERN INSIDE THE GATEFOLD. LATER COVERS HAD A LIGHTER GOLD COLOUR AND EVEN NEAR ORANGE. SOLID SPINE AND EDGES WITH SOME VERY LIGHT SHELF WEAR TO TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES AND OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP. THE SPINE IS IN LOVELY CONDITION WITH ONLY A TINY RUB ON EACH CORNER :: THERE IS A SMALL MARK ON THE SPINE EDGE ON THE FRONT OF THE COVER TOWARDS THE TOP . INSIDE THE GATEFOLD THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS AND WITH NO OTHER ISSUES :: VG+/EX- .

VINYL :: AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FINE WITH NO NASTY MARKS, AND ONLY WHEN HELD UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT CAN YOU SEE QUITE A FEW SMALL FINE HAIRLINES, AND SLEEVE REMOVAL WHISPY ULTRA FINE LINES. I CAN ASSURE YOU THERE IS NOTHING FEELABLE SO THERE ARE NO STICKS, SKIPS OR JUMPS, ANYWHERE !!! DUE TO THE RARITY OF THIS ALBUM I WILL GRADE TRACK BY TRACK TO GIVE YOU THE BEST POSSIBLE DESCRIPTION !! SIDE 2 PLAYS REALLY WELL, BUT I WILL DO SIDE 1 FIRST >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: HAS SOME FAINT STATIC ON THE INTRO AND SOME SOFT BACKGROUND TICKS IN THE MIDDLE .

TRACK 2 :: HAS A FEW TICKS AT THE VERY END .

TRACK 3 :: HAS SIX LIGHT TICKS AND A BIT OF FAINT STATIC AT THE START ON THE QUIET INTRO .

TRACK 4 :: HAS TEN SOFT TICKS AT THE VERY START, THEN A LITTLE WAY IN, THERE IS SOME FAINT STATIC UNTILL THE LOUDER PART OF THE TRACK KICKS IN.

I WOULD GRADE SIDE 1 AUDIO :: VG .

SIDE 2 :: TRACK 1 :: HAS A BIT OF LIGHT STATIC ON THE RUN IN .

TRACK 2 :: HAS TWO SOFT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE .

TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE .

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE .

I WOULD GRADE SIDE 2 AUDIO :: EX . 

LABELS :: FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, SIDE 1 STICKERS HAVE BEEN REMOVED TO REVEAL THE ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS LABEL. THERE IS ALSO A NAME WRITTEN IN THE MIDDLE. SIDE 2 HAS THE STICKERS IN PLACE :: VG . DUE TO NAME AND STICKERS MISSING !!!

ORIGINAL INNER :: HAS A SMALL SEAM SPLIT IN THE MIDDLE OF EACH SIDE AND SOME WRITING ( PLEASE SEE PHOTOS ) :: VG- .

RARE AND COLLECTABLE PIECE OF ZEP VINYL.
