Maybe Strawberry was a reference to the wonderful strain of weed called "Strawberry Cough"? I do love some good Strawberry.
Strawberry was mastering lab located in the UK.

For hardcore collectors I'm sure this is nothing new but today when I was perusing old vinyl at a local antiques shop I noticed a copy of In Through the Out Door for sale that made note on the cover of the word "Strawberry" being etched into the run off groove. Just from my little bit of research I've discovered that means it's a first pressing. They were only asking $10 for it so it's not like it's a rarity or anything but when I got home I had to check my copy as well and it also has "Strawberry" etched into the dead wax. Again, not a huge surprise but still cool to know. Believe it or not, when In Through the Out Door first came out I bought it on cassette first. Since I have a first pressing I'm guessing it wasn't all that much longer that I got around to purchasing it on vinyl.
Not a 1st issue pictured, yours has the Warner logo in the rim text.

While I feel the new releases were a missed opportunity for a last analog hurrah, in reality JP has fuzzed with the tapes so much, not sure how much of the original remained.
Add to that the age of the tapes - all tapes may not have aged well?
I do applaud the new releases for bringing a low cost product to the public.
And they do have better SQ that many vintage pressings....Zep was popular and anything would sell.
But if one gets the right press, from the right country, and mastered by the right person....well the new just lacks the life/power/rawness of the best all analog!

IMO, no true Led Head should be able to answer this one!!!!!

And then...

III - UK press.

An older thread that IMO should have seen more action....anyway, my 2 cents.
There is nothing better than the RL cut, but at $200 and up it may be out of reach for some?
Second in line would be a UK plum label press, not the RL by any means, but a truly sweet press!!! Pricing however is not attractive at this time.
Third in line would be the Prios (GP) cut. $50, at the most, should buy you a very nice copy. It is sorta' like a little brother to the RL. Get 'em while you can!
And the sticker has nothing to do with tracking issues, don't worry about that.

The first version of the soundtrack i bought was the 2007 one. (im born in 95 and i think i bought it in 07-09 TSRTS was the last one i didint have in my collection)
Around 2011-2012 i found out from wikipedia that the old version of the soundtrack had different edits to songs, so i went and bought the old version, which is still available btw.
I grew to love the 2007 version of No Quarter more probably cause thats the version i first heard.
The 1976 one is also amazing but the production is bothering me, especially how the drums are mixed, dosent work with headphones at all.
Cool.
By available I assume you mean through old stock/used market. My concern was that the original is no longer in print on any format.

Possibly. I think many in this generation already don't know, unless they sought out the original LP or CD issue, or read this forum. C'est la vie.
Just sad.

My problem lies with the deletion of the original album availability. Not with the new content.
IMO, those should be presented as bonus tracks.
Will future generations never know of the original tracks?
