HISTORY... The untitled fourth studio album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin, commonly known as Led Zeppelin IV,[a] was released on 8 November 1971 by Atlantic Records. It was produced by guitarist Jimmy Page and recorded between December 1970 and February 1971, mostly in the country house Headley Grange.


The album was a commercial and critical success and is Led Zeppelin's best-selling album, shipping over 37 million copies worldwide. It is one of the best-selling albums in the US, while critics have regularly placed it highly on lists of the greatest albums of all time. In 2010, Led Zeppelin IV was one of ten classic album covers from British artists commemorated on a UK postage stamp issued by the Royal Mail.

The outer gatefold cover is in nice condition for age, with no splits or tears. Usual age wear to corners, edges, spine and a small paper removal to back
The vinyl is really superb!! It has a beautiful glossy sheen to the surface.It shows the saught after plum/orange Atlantic labels which show NO Peter Grant credits. Has 'Porky' and 'Pecko Duck' to the dead wax. It literally has a couple of light insignificant surface lines and a couple of tiny 3mm felable marks. Tiny initialling but really beautiful overall!


The often missing 'Led Zeppelin IV inner sleeve' is present. There are no rips or tears. Old tape marks and small seam splits starting.
