In Reply to: UP FOR SALE: Bob Ludwig's Led Zeppelin II Test Pressing posted by John Marks on October 31, 2024 at 14:01:05:
I have the both Mo-Fi original and original release, and I am not impressed with them sound wise - just ok. As producer, Jimmy Page ran the original tapes with too much modulation to try and get tape compression - it has a slight distortion, especially to the tippy top high end. Good music and lyrics though. Great effort!
