Notes
The fourth Led Zeppelin album released on November 8, 1971, 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.

- Edited 5 days agoHold on a minute, I thought I grew tired of Stairway to Heaven about 40 years ago! This pressing reminded me of how truly beautiful it can be ..... super!
- Edited 11 days agoFound a copy today, very nice pressing, quiet , open sound. Great separation of instruments. Prefer this 1983? Over the “remaster “
- It sounds great to me. I don't understand the bad reviews. Probably playing it on a bottom of the barrel system
- My copy of this is NM, but the high end is very muffled. It really sounds terrible. It's like the treble was turned down in mastering.

This version is similar to others in that it has ALLEN / PORKY runouts but has correct spelling of Misty Mountain Hop.referencing Untitled (LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo) K 50008
This version is similar to others in that it has ALLEN / PORKY runouts but has correct spelling of Misty Mountain Hop.referencing Untitled (LP, Album, Club Edition, Reissue, Stereo, Indianapolis Pressing, Gatefold) SD 7208
this pressing is fairly quiet. kinda surprised this hasn't been reissued in a double LP at this point. so much sound to go around on this album.- This is a good solid pressing. I have this, the 2014 Page masters which I think sounds excellent and the clear vinyl that came out for the Atlantic 75 Anniversary
referencing Untitled (LP, Album, Gatefold) SD 7208
Honestly the highs are a little unpleasant on this pressing, but might just be the way the album was mastered.
