Reviews

nandika1981 May 30, 2023
some songs sound distorted, i don't know if it's the pressing or the mastering, but it wasn't worth it... also not a lot of bass. i think this is the last fucking post-digital era vinyl i bought. enough with this crap.
greggall2017 Mar 28, 2023
This remaster sounds a little on the harsh side to my ears, but it is of a higher fidelity compared with older pressings I’ve heard.
Alderwood79 Dec 23, 2022
I bought this on sale with 25% off the sticker price. A pretty solid release and a more gentle listen on the ears than its CD counterpoint, which I also own. This 2015 vinyl remaster has more dynamic range than the 1975 pressing that I own (https://www.discogs.com/release/1303566-Led-Zeppelin-Physical-Graffiti). Drums and bass punch you in the face when they thunder in. The highs are a bit shrill but I believe that has more to do more with poor recording than poor mastering. This album wasn't well recorded to begin with. Some of these reviews saying that it doesn't sound good are nonsense. For the price I paid, I am happy. I may have been more dissapointed if I paid regular price, as I'd rather buy an audiophile record (any artist or genre) that can be had in the same price range.
Lost_Sounds_Vinyl Nov 20, 2022
While it seems very in vogue to shred this remaster, I just compared to a very early Presswell and I gotta say; if the major complaint is the thinness or lack of dynamics compared with earlier pressings, I'm just not hearing it.
Would love to AB with a 70s Monarch. Or the Classic Records release.
But this remaster is not the dirty diaper folks are making it seem.
Stevo4756 Sep 20, 2022
This press blows. My scratched up copy from the 80s sounds better than this turd. Loads of distortion and very thin sound, i guess i have to live with the pops and cracks from my old copy because this thing is LIFELESS and BORING. And yes my cartridge is aligned properly.
DM71. Sep 9, 2022
Great album, very quiet pressing but really lacking in the bass department. Tone control will be your best friend for this one. Besides that, it sounds good. So many great songs on this album...
Jason310M May 31, 2022
Mine has a white Made in Germany sticker on the back cover in the upper right hand corner. None of these pics on any of the releases on discogs show this sticker. Anybody elses copy have this sticker?
greggall2017 May 21, 2022
Love the album but this release sounds a little hallow to me.
minimal.compact Feb 11, 2022
Perfect pressing and the sound is awesome, i don't have any first pressing to compare this, but it sounds excellent.
jonnyretro Dec 8, 2021
I like it AB earlier copies, 40th kills them.
Yes vocals are ever so slightly foward with much more presence. guitars keyboards are cleaner..
The drums all are cleaner toms and high hats are cleaner.
Bass and kick are set back of the stage so when you turn this album up loud.
It kicks azz mixed like a great 70s rock record should be, remembering kids!
This album is not the Beastie Boys or Ton Loc
This Led Zeppelin one of the greatest hard rock bands of the 70s.. 🇦🇺 🤟
