Description
From 1969, comes Led Zeppelin with their album Led Zeppelin II on Atlantic SD8236. Nine track album with the special Robert Ludwig HOT MIX!! This is identifiable by the RL scratched into the deadwax on the second side and the second side of the record is pressed almost to the label a very tiny deadwax area, while the regular presses are not like this! They are pressed tighter and have a much larger deadwax area. This special mix allows for GREATER FIDELITY AND BETTER SOUND! This is especially noticeable on the song Living Loving Maid (She's Just A Woman). These ORIGINAL Ludwigs are VERY hard to find! They also sound VERY SUPERIOR to the various reissues out there,especially the re-mastered series that just came out a few months ago! REMEMBER-only the LPs with the RL in the deadwax are the Ludwig presses! Gatefold cover with information and a drawing of a zeppelin above a Greek temple.
