Yep, this is the one everyone wants. 1969 original pressing of Led Zeppelin II on US Atlantic SD 8236 with the original "hot mix" done by famed engineer Robert Ludwig. The Side 2 run-off groove has RL and SS (for Sterling Sound mastering). Side 1 has RL (but no SS) and LW, for Longwear Plating stamper parts.
Visually the record has some hairline marks but overall it's quite clean for this oft-abused record. Much of it plays VG/VG+, while there are a few parts with some crackling and light ticks. There are no serious scratches so overall I'd give it an average of VG.
Gatefold cover is VG, with some wear, stains and a very small seam split as seen in the photo. Still pretty good for this record, I've seen a lot of sleeves that are total wrecks. Yeesh, the parties people must have had.
As always, feel free to make me an offer! I tend to price high to discourage flippers, so offer me what you're willing to pay and if it's reasonable, I'll take it.
