LED ZEPPELIN:"VINTAGE LED ZEPPELIN 1971"

BBC CN 4194 +THE SPECIAL "DIE CUT"COVER.

THE BBC's REPUTATION FOR RECORDING SOME OF THE BEST ROCK BANDS IS WORLD FAMOUS AND THIS CONCERT RECORDED IN FRONT OF A FAIRLY SMALL,RESPECTIVE AND QUIET AUDIENCE GIVES A RARE CHANCE TO HEAR THE BAND IN THE EARLY YEARS BUT SOUNDING MAGNIFICENT WITH ALTERNATIVE VERSIONS THAT WILL DELIGHT ANY LED.ZEP FAN!

FOR EXAMPLE THE VERSION OF"WHOLE LOTTA LOVE"GOES INTO AN ELVIS PRESLEY MEDLEY OF"THAT'S ALL RIGHT MAMA"and"A MESS OF BLUES"WITH THAT UNIQUE ROBERT PLANT VOCAL INTERPRETATION AND THE BAND'S DRIVING HARD ROCK BACKING!

SIDE ONE HAS A SHORT SPOKEN INTRODUCTION BY BBC DJ,RICHARD SKINNER FOLLOWED BY THE FIRST PART OF THE CONCERT WHICH LASTS 30 MINUTES,THE SECOND SIDE LASTING 25 MINUTES.

THERE IS SOME CHAT TO THE AUDIENCE BY ROBERT PLANT INBETWEEN SOME OF THE NUMBERS,NONE OF WHICH ARE LISTED ON THE COVER OR LABEL BUT INCLUDE"STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN"AND TRACKS OFF THE FIRST THREE ALBUMS BUT OF COURSE IN TOTALLY DIFFERENT VERSIONS TO THE STUDIO ONES!

PURE MAGIC AND THE SOUND IS BEAUTIFULLY CLEAR ON THIS NEAR MINT CONDITION LP! 

THIS REALLY IS A FANTASTIC ITEM FOR ANY FAN AND HOW ABOUT GETTING THIS AS A MEMORABLE PRESENT FOR YOU DAD AS FATHERS DAY IS ONLY A COUPLE OF MONTHS AWAY AND ANY DAD INTO HIS ROCK ON VINYL WILL ADORE THIS ITEM!

THIS IS A ONCE IN A BLUE MOON OPPORTUNITY TO GET ONE OF THE WORLD'S RAREST LED ZEPPELIN ALBUMS,BOUND TO RISE IN VALUE!

THIS LP IS VERY HARD TO FIND AS GOOD AS THIS COPY WITH A COVER WHICH IS ULTRA CLEAN AND HAS NO SPLITS,WRITING OR STAINING UNLIKE MOST COPIES!!

IF YOU WANT A GREAT COPY OF THIS SHORT LIVED ALBUM THEN THIS IS IDEAL TO BID FOR! 

 PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS!  

ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION,LET ALONE AS GOOD AS THIS ONE!

THE ONLY COPY I HAVE EVER SEEN!

MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON PORTABLE PLAYERS,OR OLD EQUIPMENT AND EVEN THE MOST CAREFUL FANS WOULD HAVE PLAYED THEM DOZENS OF TIMES,THIS LP HAS HAD HARDLY ANY PLAYS AT ALL!

HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER !

IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN UPGRADER/ULTIMATE COPY -

THIS COULD BE THE CHANCE FOR YOU!  

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.

    *****************************************

FROM A RECENTLY PURCHASED COLLECTION OF TOP QUALITY  LPs OWNED BY A CAREFUL COLLECTOR WHO CARED FOR HIS LPs AND EQUIPMENT AND STORED AWAY FROM LIGHT AND HEAT  FOR OVER 25 YEARS!

HE WENT TO A GREAT DEAL OF TIME AND TROUBLE TO GET THIS GEM THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE! 

A LED ZEPPELIN/PROGRESSIVE ROCK MUSIC COLLECTORS DREAM-PLEASE READ ON FOR IN DEPTH DETAILS!!

I HAVE NOT FOUND SUCH BREATHTAKING QUALITY FOR AN LP OF THIS VINTAGE FOR QUITE SOMETIME.THEY ARE SIMPLY NOT TURNING UP AS FREQUENTLY AS THEY DID,EVEN FIVE YEARS AGO.MOST HAVE NOW LEFT THE UK FOR THE COLLECTIONS OF JAPAN,AMERICA AND THE FAR EAST NEVER TO RETURN TO THE SELLING MARKET.

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO GET SUCH A BRILLIANT COPY LIKE THIS ONE IN SUPERB NEAR MINT CONDITION!

THE SURFACES GLEAM,NO FINGERPRINTS,PATCHES OR BAD STORAGE ISSUES,NO WARPING,NO SCUFFS,NO SCRATCHES,NO FADING etc.

PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTO OF THE BRIGHTNESS AND SHARPNESS OF THE LABEL AND THE COVER!

DON'T FORGET JUST HOW EXPENSIVE LPs WERE FOR THE AVERAGE BUYER.AN LP WAS USUALLY A CAREFULLY CONSIDERED PURCHASE OVER WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS,WHICH EXPLAINS WHY SO FEW TURN UP.

THIS IS THE BEST COPY I HAVE  SEEN IN YEARS.

CHECK OUT YOUR COPY IF YOU HAVE ONE-CAN YOU REALLY PUT UP WITH THE ONE YOU HAVE GOT AND WILL YOU REGRET IT LATER? IF NOTHING ELSE THIS IS A FANTASTIC INVESTMENT!

I AM SURE TO REGRET NOT KEEPING IT BUT THAT'S LIFE! THE HOUSE IS FULL AS IT IS! 

THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A HI-FI BUFF.IT IS HIGHLY PROBABLE THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF THIS RECORD TO APPEAR ON EBAY FOR YEARS DIRECT FROM SOMEONE WHO WAS A CONNOISEUR! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHILST I AM IN THE BUSINESS TO SELL, I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE ITEMS I AM SELLING.

IN A COMPETITIVE MARKET SUCH AS EBAY, THIS IS GETTING RARE SO YOU CAN BID WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

A VERY NICE QUIET,THICK VINYL PRESSING!  

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO"CATCH"ANY GROOVE WEAR AND THAT IS BEING STRICT! 

NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!/NO DISTORTION!

A COPY THAT HAS PROBABLY BEEN PLAYED ONLY A HANDFUL OF TIMES HAVING SPOKEN AT LENGTH TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER!!!!

Just how many were preserved like this one FROM A FUSSY RELIABLE COLLECTOR ??!!!!!!  

The STEREO mixes are Superb and full of bass!

In the 1980s, many were STILL using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff the discs forever in seconds at the time not aware that years later even the slightest damage would be evident on more sophisticated audio.

The 1980s equipment was sometimes a bit basic and it was suggested to play LPs at between 5 and 8 grammes, which of course after a few plays would produce on later plays that nasty"film of fizzy distortion"so often IGNORED by sellers and in MY LISTENING GRADING is ALWAYS LISTENED OUT FOR WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON AND PLAYED TO ENSURE THE BEST AND MOST ACURATE GRADING!!!!

 To find SUPER copies all these years later is getting almost impossible!FACT!

THEY ARE SIMPLY DRYING UP! 

These mixes are far punchier but are rather flat on the CDs that have come out!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear LED ZEPPELIN and always will be!  

GREAT WIDE RANGE SOUND WITH GREAT BASS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

There is NO spindle wear.  

Look elsewhere on ebay and you MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS IF YOU HAVE ONE AT ALL AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK! .

THE LP WILL BE REMOVED FROM IT'S COVER BEFORE SENDING!   

REMEMBER I AM GRADING STRICTLY! PLEASE STUDY THE PHOTOS!
