    Excellent. The only one I didn't get when it came out was the first album. The first time I heard it, I was a kid at my friend's house laying around in the summer when his parents were out of town for awhile. His older brother came home with an album from a new band from England that he was raving about. We couldn't believe it when the needle hit the groove on Babe I'm Gonna Leave You. We laid around for days just playing that album over and over and over. I missed seeing them in '75 I think it was in Minneapolis with some friends. We always looked forward to the new Zep albums coming out. I remember this guy in the dorms in college turning his speakers facing out the window and cranking Nobody's Fault But Mine. I still think their blues songs were some of the best on the planet. I'm still amazed at their talent, even Plant's album with Allison Krauss. His voice is something else.

    Couldn't let this go without a comment! I have the first four Zep releases...bought em when they first came out...saw them in 69 before two came out,but they were doing songs off it in concert...The end of Moby Dick..the intro to Bring It On Home...thought it was a bluesy end to the album,then it opens up...to this day that still kicks butt...there is nothing that compares.Albums in those days flowed high to low..then high. How the whole thing was put together was pure art.

    These are a mix of my originals and some replacements of first pressings. My old Phillips GA212 with Shure Cart did a number on the old vinyl, but these are in all nice condition that play without issue. They sound better today on my new rig tho.

    Just picked up George Harrison's All Things Must Pass today.
    Everything (3lps, box, and the very cool large poster) is in Near Mint condition.
