    It's worth noting that it was nothing but a fold-down mix of the stereo master. Not a particularly bad sounding one, but some songs make it very apparent (Whole Lotta Love is basically pure bass). Out of the fold-down Zeppelin records, this is one of the worse sounding ones.

      How does it sound compare to the regular RL cut? Did he master this? Thank you

            Is it only the promo which has the "Stereo" imprint ?
            Because in that case I have that release but without the decal, I might be wrong though
