Notes

Atlantic red and plum label with Superhype / Jewel Music credits on both labels.

Fully laminated sleeve with orange lettering and the grey stripe across the base of the front cover. This issue has the corrected stamped matrix number on both sides which the second 8 A-side and third 8 B-side from left have been struck through and replaced with an hand-etched scratched out 8 number. This one was slightly later issue of the 1st Pressing variation Superhype Music Credit labels. This issue has the corrected stamped matrix number on both sides which the second 8 A-side and second 8 B-side from left have been struck through and replaced with an hand-etched scratched out 8 number

Earliest plum label releases can be found with the seven variations below:

This 1st Pressing variation has Turquoise sleeve lettering and Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels.

This 1st Pressing variation has Turquoise sleeve lettering and Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels. This issue has on side one the "Superhype mis-credit label", label lists songs 1, "3", 4 as Superhype Music and then 3 again as Jewel Music.

This 1st Pressing variation has Orange sleeve lettering with grey stripe across the base of the front cover and (Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels as this one).

This 1st Pressing variation has Orange sleeve lettering with grey stripe across the base of the front cover and has "Superhype mis-credit label" on label side one.

The 2nd Pressing has Orange sleeve lettering without Superhype credits with instead Warner Bros/7 Arts. Publishing credit printed in two lines on the labels.

The 2nd Pressing has Orange sleeve lettering without Superhype credits with instead Warner Bros/7 Arts. Publishing credit printed in one line on the labels.

The 2nd Pressing has Orange sleeve lettering without Grey stripe at bottom on front cover and without Superhype credits with instead Warner Bros/7 Arts. Publishing credit printed in two lines on the labels.

There are also copies with the grey strip at the base of the sleeve which have Superhype credits on one label side and Warner Bros/7 Arts on the other, there are probably only a handful of these as it would only have happened when the remaining Superhype labels were being used up.

Later pressings:
The 3rd Pressing on green and orange label has a different catalogue number (K 40031) with Superhype Music/Jewel Music Publishing credits labels and also has orange lettering sleeve.

The 4th Pressing on green and orange label has a different catalogue number (K 40031) with WEA on labels and also has orange lettering sleeve.

    Such an incredible sounding record - just one of the bets in my collection to listen to. Wish I was a bigger Led Zeppelin fan.

          What is NOT said here is that the machine stamped '8' that has been scratched out is actually CORRECT. The master disc engineer who scratched out the 8 replaced it with a '7' which has been changed back to an '8' on both sides of some versions
          A completely pointless exercise!
          There are versions where only side 1 has been altered in this way.
          Never clear what the stamped numbers after the A//1 and B//1 are however our versions has '1 2 3 4' on side one and '1 2 4' on side 2.
