Bob Ludwigs own Copy for sale
Better hurry to the auction
If you're a LED Head with a $200K+ rig, why not? Of course, that's just table/cart/phonostage! I have the RL Monarch press Thought $20 bucks was a ridiculous price about 15 years ago? This is interesting https://www.discogs.com/release/1960140-Led-Zeppelin-Led-Zeppelin-II The Presswell copy which I also have is good too, just not as impactful as the RL. If I were rolling in dough, I'd have the Studer and tape.

artemus_5 Yeah, it's the RL thing that makes it special. Kinda like a real Mickey Mantle signed baseball. They are out there, in various degrees of ruin from being stacked and played on the BSR all in one rigs from the 70's! Sane to INSANE pricing, like the Classic 45 RPM Zeppelin. That was one of those lucky finds during one of my work travels thru a city I was in. It's actually unusual for it to even be found here-on the West Coast? This is an East Coast NY press. I bet there's a story if it could talk! Old Zep friends and I enjoyed it the other night because of this thread-thanks! The mighty Zep and the rest aren't played much these days. I too, am in it for the listening, not collecting. My insistence on period press and no R.I.'s is the LP disciple in me. Dirty/dusty record bins is where I go. These days are Classical, straight ahead Jazz, Blues and old obscure weird music at low/mid volume. We did blast "Whole Lotta Love" for a brief moment. Your table setup is cool. I'm a fan of beautiful, finished wood anything. |
"I now listen to what I call NOS music, Billy Joel, Supertramp, Atlanta Rhythm Section" My listening/purchasing generally isn't past 1980. Big early ARS fan! My neighborhood stores are packed with inexpensive, no demand, waiting to be discovered/rediscovered gems. "still my favorite band to play my drums with." Yup, the 70's were spent playing for hours in my bedroom trying to perfect Jimmy's licks on a cheap Japanese Les Paul. 50+ years later, the only difference now is arthritis and a real Les Paul!
