Notes
The fourth Led Zeppelin album, intentionally left untitled, with no indication it was by Led Zeppelin on original release - although many have commonly referred to it as "Led Zeppelin IV", "Zoso", "Symbols" or other unofficial titles. On Discogs, the title of this release is "Untitled", unless specifically titled otherwise, i.e. "Led Zeppelin" or "IV" (as some later versions).
In the UK, there are at least eight known vinyl red/plum 7-digit Deluxe cat# versions. To help simplify Release Notes, it may be easier to add the Version Number as below (Plus any potential variants to that numbered Version):
1. Label: Version 1
Original issue, Grant credit & inverted feather logo on B-side
2. Label: Version 2
As Version 1, but with feather logo corrected on B-side.
3. Label: Version 3
As Version 1 misprinted inverted feather logo on B-side, but with two label over-stickers.
4. Label: Version 4
Grant credit erased by 2 label over-stickers to Version 2. One adding band name at top, the other adding publishers/producer at bottom.
5. Label: Version 5
Stickers replaced by printed credits for the Version 3 data. However, B-side has title wrongly as 'Misty Mountain Top'. "Under licence..." text also added below Atlantic logo.
6. Label: Version 6
As Version 5, but Yet the feather logo is again inverted on B-side.
7. Label: Version 7
B-side track corrected to 'Misty Mountain Hop' and yet the feather logo is again inverted on B-side.
8. Label: Version 8
As Version 5, but B-side track corrected to 'Misty Mountain Hop' and the feather logo on B-side corrected and is the right way up.
Furthermore: A 'Grant' text credit may still be extant on the grey liner of the Version 3 issues and onward.
(Kinney 'K' cat# prefixes then followed, on Atlantic orange/green labels)
According to CNN the 'Stick Man' is a colored copy of a black and white photograph called 'A Wiltshire Thatcher', taken by Ernest Howard Farmer in the 1890s. The thatcher in question is a man named Lot Long, who was 69 years old at the time Farmer took the photo.

Reviews
- Edited 4 days agoFor the ones hating on this pressing, all of you are delusional. Probably used it with a Crossley rec.player. This was probably remastered digitally anyway.

Received my copy today, I have to say I am very happy with it! Great pressing, nice & flat and sounds superb! No crackles/hiss unlike many re-issues these days. A great job all round and well worth the investment even if you have an early pressing.- On my copy, the song Stairway to Heaven sounds a bit muffled :(
I have to turn the high frequencies on the equalizer to maximum referencing Untitled (LP, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Repress, Stereo, Clear [Crystal Clear], 180G) RCV1 7208
My version that I just received, has a "Made in Germany" sticker on the back of the plastic wrap. But there are no versions categorized as "Germany"- Edited 13 days agoCame across this copy in a used vinyl store while traveling in Europe…upon playing at home, I am shocked it beat out my previous best sounding 1976 Japanese press in a way it has more weighty and breathy voice while keep up same great sound stage and clarity with Japanese copy. Zeppelin albums demand you play loud, and too many copies have aggressive brightness especially at high volume. This copy avoid midrange congestion. Give it a try you will appreciate the better tonality this copy offers.

Fantastic pressing! Very punchy and detailed with extremely quiet vinyl. I barely could hear any surface noise whatsoever even between tracks and that’s without even cleaning it. Fortunately, the record is also in a non scratching, anti-static inner sleeve which enormously helps avoid scratches and dust. Very impressed with this pressing which I think sounds much better than my 2014 boxset edition. - Edited 18 days ago

I remember buying this LP new at Kelly’s in downtown Vancouver around 1981. Unfortunately, I think this is a horrid pressing and beware of any subsequent reissues with the 11/29/79 date etched in the dead wax. I soon found an 1972 CDN reissue that uses the original stampers and catalogue number and it was night and day better by a long shot!
