Led Zeppelin – Led Zeppelin (Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, 1974, Atlantic SD 8216, Presswell Pressing, George Piros Cut)

Why This Record Matters
Led Zeppelin’s 1969 debut established the band’s combination of heavy blues, hard rock, acoustic passages, and Jimmy Page’s layered production. The album contains “Good Times Bad Times,” “Dazed And Confused,” “Communication Breakdown,” and “How Many More Times,” with Robert Plant, Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham establishing the sound that would define the group’s early catalog. This 1974 reissue preserves the album through a later George Piros Atlantic Studios lacquer cut that has become a specifically identifiable U.S. mastering.

Collector Note
This 1974 U.S. Atlantic SD 8216 reissue is a Presswell pressing, identified by the PR designation, and uses the 75 Rockefeller Plaza label address without the later Warner Communications logo. The supplied ST-A-681461C AT/GP and ST-A-681462C AT/GP runouts identify George Piros lacquer cuts made at Atlantic Studios on both sides. The combination of the Presswell pressing and confirmed AT/GP mastering precisely identifies this desirable 1974 U.S. reissue configuration.
