LED ZEPPELIN - LED ZEPPELIN II-1969-MISPRINT "LEMON SONG" SECOND PRESS UK-ATLANTIC-588198. A very rare British original of the second version of the iconic A-2/B-2 matrix album Led Zeppelin II is the second studio album by the British rock band Led Zeppelin, released on October 22, 1969 on Atlantic Records. The album was recorded in several studios located in the UK and North America from January to August 1969.

The musicians collaborated with sound engineer Eddie Kramer, who made a great contribution to the unique sound of the longplay. Led Zeppelin II demonstrates the evolution of the band's musical style — the guitar sound based on riffs takes center stage. Many critics consider this album to be the most "heavy" in Led Zeppelin's discography. Led Zeppelin II had good sales and became the band's first album to reach the top of the UK and US charts. In 1970, the album's art director, David Juniper, was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Album Design category. By November 15, 1999, the album had sold over 12 million copies.

ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA - SAME-1971-The first press UK-HARVEST-SHVL797 matrix A-1U/B-1U Stamper 1RG/2RL (Very early!!!) The first album of the famous band, a rare British original. The Electric Light Orchestra is the debut studio album by the English rock band Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), released in December 1971 in the United Kingdom by Harvest Records. In the United States, the album was released in March 1972 under the title "No Answer" after a United Artists Records employee misunderstood a phone call and asked for the album's name; the caller, unable to contact ELO, wrote "no answer" in his notes, and this was misinterpreted as the album's title. The album is dedicated to the main trio of Roy Wood, Jeff Lynne and Bev Bevan, who were the remaining members of the rock band The Move. The Move continued to release singles in the UK at the same time that the project was launched, but interest in Wood's former band soon waned. In fact, The Move's latest album, Message from the Country, was recorded simultaneously with The Electric Light Orchestra. ...more
