new vinyl - zep + beats

i got some new vinyls yesterday.

i got

also known as led zeppelin iv, iv, four symbols, zoso, sticks, untitled, the hermit, or runes.

it's in pretty good shape. my favorite songs are rock and roll, stairway to heaven, and when the levee breaks.

i also got the u.s. album introducing... the beatles on vee-jay records but i'm pretty sure it's a fake. i don't really care though, because it has great sound quality and it's a good album but the cover is falling apart.
