Led Zeppelin Deluxe Edition

Summary

(Learn how and when to remove this template message)

The Led Zeppelin Deluxe Edition is a series of albums reissued by English rock group Led Zeppelin, distributed by Atlantic Records. It contains all nine of the original Led Zeppelin studio albums remastered from the original analog tapes. Along with the remastered albums, there is a companion disc with each album, consisting of previously unreleased audio tracks and alternate mixes of released tracks. Many of these are described as work-in-progress or alternate mixes made during the original production rather than new remixes generated to highlight discarded recording elements (as did the remixes made for The Beatles Anthology). The first companion album consists of the 10 October 1969 concert in Paris. The albums were released in chronological order, each with inverted album covers.

The first wave of albums, Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, and Led Zeppelin III, was released on 2 June 2014.[1] The second wave of albums, Led Zeppelin IV and Houses of the Holy, was released on 27 October 2014.[2] Physical Graffiti was released on 23 February 2015, almost exactly forty years to the day after the original release.[3] The fourth and final wave of albums, Presence, In Through the Out Door, and Coda, was released on 31 July 2015.[4]
