Description
"8th November 1971" - Original Release Date... So, 50th Year anniversary - in two weeks time.
An original 1st press of Zep IV on the UK Atlantic label. Matrix A3/B3 - very 1st cut. This label version/variation is not one of the earliest iterations - but this copy would have been available for purchase very soon after 1st release. The vinyl comes housed in an original cover. We DO NOT have a genuine 1st issue inner sleeve. I would estimate the inner sleeve is from 1972 [about a year later]. But if you're after a best audio option for Zep IV do read on>>>>
Vinyl (Ex+) In beautiful condition and it's difficult to find early copies looking anywhere near this smart. It's clearly seen light careful use. Under close inspection there are a couple of very light marks per side - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a mostly EXCELLENT+ level excellent. The red and plum copies sound great - period. And I'm pleased to report - this is one of the best examples I've ever witnessed. Upbeat numbers are delivered with energy and bags of low-level detail. But what takes it into the top category? Well, go straight to those THREE very tricky and popular tracks. STAIRWAY/EVERMORE/CALIFORNIA. Each of these tracks, for differing reasons, are terribly difficult to find playing properly clean. But when you finally snag one - you'll have hit the jack pot. The audio delivery on a copy like this is absolutely top-level. With a beautifully quiet back ground to the acoustic numbers - man, you are close to nirvana. Exceptionally clean - very few play like this [truly]. California, in fact, is probably the darn fussiest of them all. But the rendition here is close to faultless. That might well be the cleanest I've ever heard that track. I'm struggling to pick out any background at all - throughout. This is highly unusual to manage this level of delivery - consistently. Finishing off on the crashing might of 'Levee'. I don't think you could find a better copy. Very Highly recommended.
Cover (Vg+) Has clearly been cared for with nice smooth and flat front and rear. Just superficial handling noticeable - a couple of foxing marks on the rear [no big deal]. A 1c.m. tear on the rear opening has been taped [hidden in the tree] neatly to prevent deterioration. Only slight signs of edge wear and the openings are still sharpish. The spine looks well above average. Overall the cover retains very good rigidity.
Inner (Ex-) NOT ORIGINAL to '71. But very nice in all aspects. A 1 c.m. bottom edge split.
