Led Zeppelin I S/t Debut Lp 1st Uk Press Turquoise Uncorrected Matrix Superhype

Up for auction is the very first pressing of Led Zeppelin s debut album.
Released in the sleeve with turquoise text A1/B1 uncorrected matrix endings, 588171 A1 / 588171 B1 Superhype publishing credits Sleeve Condition: VG Not bad.
Somewhere between VG and VG depending on how harsh you are.
No tears anywhere so that s a good start On the front I can count 7 lamination lines, there is a crease on the bottom left corner.
There is some lamination lifting and darkening off the spine, and there is light beginning-of-ringwear visible at the top The spine is a tad pinched but all the text is visible On the rear I can again count several lamination lines and a crease bottom right corner.
The spine creases are a bit more visible here Vinyl Condition Visual: Looking under a strong lamp there are just a few too many removal marks for me to grade any higher than VG.
It still retains a lovely shine and hasn t been dulled by excessive scuffing.
So very light removal marks, several but not loads non-feelable hairlines and some very light removal scuffs only.
There are no horror feelable scratches or anything like that.
Vinyl Condition Playback: I ve listened to the album several times and although some light clicks are present, they re just soft clicks.
I haven t ever thought ugh what s that? i.e no horrible loud pops or hissing.
Very very enjoyable.
In my opinion it s VG but I ll let you make up your own mind- here is full audio of every song: ---------------------------------------- N.B eBay doesn t let you link to external sites anymore so please copy and paste these into a browser adding the prefix before.

Good luck On 01-Dec-17 at 11:01:58 GMT, seller added the following information: I just wanted to add something about the soundclips.
Having just heard them for the first time on my laptop.
These are obviously transcribed direct from my cartridge to my radial preamp, into my a/d converters, into my computer.
So you re hearing a sound completely unaffected by the real world rooms, speakers etc In the real-world much of the noise will be rolled off and be very much more in the background As laptop speakers have next to no bass, if you re listening on one the crackles will be WAY accentuated, so I want to urge you all to make sure you listen to the clips on a full-range system, preferably through the amp and speakers you d be listening to the LP on- for the truest evaluation Many thanks for looking
