7" 45 RPM Single Stereo

Unreleased pressing, never released for sale.

It was WITHDRAWN before it was put into sale, because the band and the label couldn't find an agreement over the release. Only a few hundred copies were somehow "leaked" to public, rumours say, from a warehouse in Manchester.

"The single was planned in advance by Phil Carson from the London office of Atlantic Records. The manager of Led Zeppelin, Peter Grant, was unaware of what was about to transpire until Grant received word that over 500 singles had been pressed and had been shipped to Manchester for distribution. Grant had stipulated to Carson that under the contract Led Zeppelin had signed with Atlantic Records, the band had the final say whether singles would be released or not. With confirmation with Ahmet Ertegün, Carson had to recall all copies of the UK single and had to have them destroyed."
