Description
I PERSONALLY THINK YOU WILL STRUGGLE TO FIND THIS ALBUM, OF THE SAME YEAR (1973) IN SUCH PRISTINE CONDITION AND AS SUCH, I WOULD URGE YOU TO CONSIDER THIS AS AN INVESTMENT GRADE ALBUM.
I HAVE BEEN BUYING AND COLLECTING CLASSIC ROCK AND POP ALBUMS FOR ALMOST 40-YEARS AND HAVE ALWAYS, WHEREVER POSSIBLE, TAKEN GREAT CARE OF MY VINYL AND MOST OF IT HAS HAD VERY LITTLE PLAY AND THIS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE CONDITION AND QUALITY OF MOST OF MY PRIVATE COLLECTION.
DUE TO PERSONAL CIRCUMSTANCES, I AM SLOWLY SELLING MOST OF MY PRIVATE COLLECTION OF CHERISHED VINYL. AS SUCH, I WOULD URGE YOU TO SEE MY OTHER ITEMS FOR SALE OVER THE COMING WEEKS WHEREBY YOU MAY WIN ONE OR MORE OF MY PRIZED COLLECTION, EITHER FOR PURPOSES OF PERSONAL PLEASURE OR AS AN INVESTMENT THAT WILL HOPEFULLY GROW IN VALUE FOR MANY YEARS TO COME.
THE BAND
LED ZEPPELIN RANK AS THE GREATEST SUPER-GROUP OF ALL TIME WITH RECORD ALBUM SALES ACROSS 5 DECADES AND THEIR MEMBERS STILL TOUR AND PRODUCE TIMELESS MUSIC. NOT BAD FOR A BAND THAT KEITH MOON PROCLAIMED WOULD SINK LIKE A LEAD BALLOON UPON FIRST HEARING THEM. THE FIRST EVER GROUP TO PLAY TO SPORTS STADIUM CROWDS IN EXCESS OF 100,000 THEY OPITOMISED THE PHRASE "SUPER GROUP". THEIR TIMELESS MUSIC SPANNED MANY GENRES INCLUDING: ROCK, ROCK N ROLL, FOLK, BLUES, METAL, PSYCHODELIC AND BALLADS.
THE ALBUM
LED ZEPPELIN IV WAS PRODUCED IN 1973 ON THE ATLANTIC LABEL AND THE AUCTION COMPRISES THE VINYL, GATEFOLD SLEEVE AND LYRIC INSERT SLEEVE. THE SERIAL NUMBER IS K 50014 AND MATRICES A2, B2 MAKING THIS AN EARLY PRESS ON THE GREEN AND ORANGE LABEL. ALSO INSCRIPTIONS ON THE OUTRUNS READ: SIDE 1 - STERLING RL, SIDE 2 - STERLING RL.
SLEEVE
THE EXTERNAL, GATEFOLD SLEEVE CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS MINT- WITH NO DISCOLOURATION OR SIGNS OF WEAR. THE SPINE IS STILL FULLY INTACT WITH NO CRUSHING OR SPLITTING. THE INNER SLEEVE IS CLEAN AND UNWORN.
VINYL
ONCE AGAIN, DIFFICULT TO FIND SUCH A RARE SPECIMEN IN SUCH TIP TOP CONDITION. NR MINT WITH ONLY VERY SLIGHT SURFACE MARKS AS CAUSED BY INSERTION AND REMOVAL FROM THE SLEEVE AND THAT IS PROBABLY ME BEING OVER CRITICAL.
LABEL
NR PERFECT WITH FEW SPINDLE MARKS INDICATING MINIMAL PLAY
