LED ZEPPELIN - LED ZEPPELIN II-1969-THE FIRST PRESS USA-ATLANTIC-SD8236. Mega rare American original of the cult album with matrices ST-A-691671-A LWP W AT RL / .ST-A-691672-A LWP AT RL SS W PRESSWELL PRESSING mastering was done by Robert Ludwig (RL label) 1st issue in the USA (with the Broadway address of 1841 on the labels), with "hot" mastering by Robert Ludwig on both sides. The first copies, once on sale, began to respond to production, because high basses led to incorrect operation of low-quality cartridges (heads), which forced people to return the album, believing that it was faulty. Then another sound engineer was hired to remake a much less "hot" version of the album, and this is a much more common version.  Led Zeppelin II is the second studio album by the British rock band Led Zeppelin, released on October 22, 1969 on Atlantic Records. The record was recorded in several studios located in the UK and North America, from January to August 1969. The album was produced by Jimmy Page, who had already directed in this role on the band's debut CD. 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 art director of the record, David Juniper, was nominated for a Grammy Award in the category "Best Album Design". By November 15, 1999, the album had sold over 12 million copies. Since its release, writers and music critics have regularly ranked Led Zeppelin II among the greatest and most influential rock albums of all time. ...more

Like the band's two previous records, the album was produced by Rick Rubin and released on the major label Warner Bros. Records. Californication marked the return of guitarist John Frusciante, who left the Red Hot Chili Peppers in 1992 during a tour in support of the album Blood Sugar Sex Magik. Frusciante officially rejoined the band in 1998, replacing Dave Navarro. In addition to the usual sexual themes for the band, the album touches on topics such as death, suicide, drugs, globalization, as well as travel. The album includes such hits as "Californication", "Around the World", "Otherside", as well as "Scar Tissue", which won a Grammy Award in the category "Best Rock Song". Californication is the band's most commercially successful album.
