Led Zeppelin
Houses of the Holy
Atlantic 1973
Original 1973 UK release with intact and complete original OBI strip (with 'This stereo record can be played on mono reproducers...' text). All rim text is in the bottom half of the labels and there are no Warner logos. A2 B3 matrix codes and RL (Robert Ludwig) STERLING stamped on the runout.
Vinyl: Excellent - plays beautifully with only ever a hint of background crackle - even quiet tracks play with Excellent audio. A slight warp is visible when the disc is spinning - and only when side 1 is face up (see video if it uploads) - but the audio is unaffected - it is a gentle undulation rather than a violent wobble.
Sleeve: Excellent gatefold.
Inner/insert: Original inner is Excellent and the OBI is intact and complete which is a rare find!
A superb copy - hard to find complete.
