Description

PLEASE REVIEW ALL PHOTOS AND READ THE ENTIRE ITEM DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY AS THERE IS A LOT TO DESCRIBE!! 

THIS IS NOT A DOUBLE SIDED RL PRESSING, RL IS ONLY ON SIDE 1. 

PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BUYING. NOT AFTER YOU BUY IT AND I HAVE ALREADY PURCHASED THE POSTAGE.

THIS IS THE SUPER RARE VERSION OF LED ZEPPELIN II KNOWN AS THE "RL / LH CUTS" VERSION. 

LET ME BE PERFECTLY CLEAR, THIS HAS "RL" ETCHED IN THE SIDE 1 DEADWAX and "LH" ETCHED IN THE SIDE 2 DEADWAX. THAT IS WHY IT IS CALLED THE "RL / LH CUTS" VERSION. 

This has a Side 1 pressing by ROBERT LUDWIG with "RL SS" in the Side 1 deadwax.

This has a Side 2 pressing by LEE HULKO with "LH SS" in the Side 2 deadwax. 

THAT IS WHY IT IS KNOWN AS THE "RL/LH Cuts" VERSION.

Pressing Plant ID (Columbia Terre Haute, CTH on labels) as noted by the following label informaiton:  

  • (Side A bottom of label): ST-A-691671CTH 

(Side B bottom of label): ST-A-691672CTH

This is the early pressing mastered at Sterling Sound by Robert Ludwig denoted by RL SS on Side 1 and mastered by Lee Hulko denoted by SS LH on Side 2 etched in the deadwax.

Lee Hulko was in charge of remastering some of Side 2, which was the side that was causing the troubles with the original 2 sided RL mastered versions.

  • RUNOUT / DEADWAX INFO:

Matrix / Runout (A-side runout etched: T | ST-A-691671-1A RL SS 

Matrix / Runout (B-side runout etched: T | ST-A-691672-D SS LH
