Led Zeppelin IV vinyl

I agree that the CD versions sound absolutely horrible. I own the 200 gram Classic Records reissues of II, IV, and Physical Graffiti. They all sound phenomenal, but I'd have to say that Physical Graffiti sounds the best. But I've heard some of the original pressings, and they alone blow the CDs out of the water.

Original Physical Graffiti sounds excellent, as does II, the classic reissue III also sounds very good, HOH is OK but the original IV does not sound good....it's rough.....but ya gotta have it!

By the way don't be surprised to see Pagey remater and re-issue all of the old Zep albums.

Mothership should give all of us Zep fans an idea of how they will sound.

P.S. Kmulkey get all of the Classic Records re-issues while you can. Page has stopped them from producing any more copies. Which is why I think he is going to re-issue his own versions.

Thanks folks for all the input.

Regarding the original issue vinyl, how did you find a good sounding one? I remember back in the day being constantly frustrated that the albums sounded like the guy that pressed them was smoking a cigarette and got the ashes all over them. Horrible stuff.
