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.

referencing Untitled (LP, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Repress, Stereo, Clear [Crystal Clear], 180G) RCV1 7208
Thin sounding at bits, but still a clean pressing nonetheless. -
referencing Untitled (LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo) KSD-19129
I own this reissue and the sound quality is not the greatest on it. Recently bought the 2014 remaster on clear vinyl and comparing sound quality the 2014 remaster is way better with the dynamic range.
In summary avoid this reissue -
First of all I have to say that I'm a big fan of GP - my favourite pressing of Led Zeppelin II is the 1977 19127 ST-A-691671 .MO cut by him. Anyway I have listened to this IV pressing over and over again. I think that more than immersive, this cut has too much bass. Excessive in "Four Sticks" and "Rock And Roll." I prefer the 1977 US, SD 19129 Monarch Pressing, the 1977 UK Kinney Music K50008 and the 1982 Atlantic 50008. In these three editions the sound is much more natural.
-
Although much maligned, these Canadian edition remasters are superb. Clean, detailed and open. Plenty of weight and punch. -
referencing Untitled (CD, Album, Reissue) CD 19129
A surprisingly open and dynamic edition that has weight but has been slightly dampened, compared to this excellent remaster, Led Zeppelin - Untitled. -
Have a copy for sale - also have other Chinese knock off of Japanese mini sleeves with the inserts (no obi's tho) - me if interested. -
Sounds amazing. Huge, bombastic, rocking. Great mix, definitive version for sure.
-
I concur with the previous opinions. I have a '75 Porky Pecko and this absolutely creams it. Bass? Yes. Clarity? Yes. IGD? No. I'm done looking for a Zep 4 on vinyl. -
referencing Led Zeppelin IV (LP, Album, Gatefold) 2400 210
This pressing sounds terrific! It's heavy and loud. Clear definition, huge soundstage, the LOs are so good, very engaging pressing!! I compared it to the 2nd UK Pecko Duck and it’s really close. The only demerit is a little groove distortion at the very end of both sides but it’s pretty acceptable in my copy. -
Phenomenal. You’ll come back to this a lot of times due to how immersive the soundstage is
