John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant came together in 1968 as Led Zeppelin. Over the next decade, the band would become one of the most influential, innovative and successful groups in modern music, selling more than 300 million albums worldwide. Their songs are some of the most celebrated in rock n roll history that, to this day, resonate with fans young and old around the globe. Still, no matter how many times you may have listened to their music, you ve never heard Led Zeppelin like this before. With the 2014 release of deluxe editions of Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, & Led Zeppelin III , the band will launch an extensive reissue program of all nine of its studio albums in chronological order, each remastered by guitarist and producer Jimmy Page. Led Zeppelin will also open its vaults to share dozens of unheard studio and live recordings, with each album featuring a second disc of companion audio comprised entirely of unreleased music related to that album. "The material on the companion discs presents a portal to the time of the recording of Led Zeppelin, " says Page. "It is a selection of work in progress with rough mixes, backing tracks, alternate versions, and new material recorded at the time." The band wrote and recorded nearly all of Led Zeppelin II while touring relentlessly to support its debut album. Incredibly, the album was released just seven months after Led Zeppelin in October of 1969. Led Zeppelin II features some of the band s most beloved tracks including "Ramble On" and "Heartbreaker" as well as "Whole Lotta Love, " considered by many to be one of the greatest rock n roll songs of all time. The album is certified diamond by the RIAA with sales of over 12 million copies. The Led Zeppelin II companion audio gives fans the first peek into the band s recording sessions, with alternate mixes of five songs from the album, backing tracks to "Thank You" and "Living Loving Maid (She s Just A Woman), " and the previously unreleased track "La La." Led Zeppelin continues to be honored for its pivotal role in music history. The band was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1995, received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2005, and a year later was awarded with the Polar Music Prize in Stockholm. Founding members Jones, Page and Plant along with Jason Bonham, the son of John Bonham took the stage at London s O2 Arena in 2007 to headline a tribute concert for Ahmet Ertegun, a dear friend and Atlantic Records founder. The band was honored for its lifetime contribution to American culture at the Kennedy Center Honors in 2012. In January of 2014, the band won their first ever Grammy award as Celebration Day, which captured their live performance at the Ertegun tribute concert, was named Best Rock Album. Review: You know the music already: this is more about desertcart - The album: sounds great. I can hear things I've never heard before! JPJ's bass work is really amazing and now you can really hear it! Esp on the lemon song. A classic album with a good remastering job. I was hesitant to buy these until I bought zep I remaster and was impressed with what I heard (and that just from the auto rip I was able to get). I rushed to order II and III. Oddly, my preorder of I and later order of III have not shipped (out of stock!). II finally arrived on vinyl today. I was horrified to see a hole in the cardboard box it came in so that I could see the album jacket! Opening it up I found the album jacket was quite damaged. I did not want to return it and have to wait who knows hot long to get a replacement so went on customer service chat if nothing else but to vent. They offered to send me a replacement at no charge and I don't have to send the first one back! I'm ecstatic! A copy to play and one to keep in pristine condition! I'm impressed with desertcarts handling of this. The remasters? Definitely worth it to me. Review: Led 2 You - One of the greatest albums of all time blues is no longer blues and then there was rock. This was the deluxe edition I purchased but the picture shows the original

Hey, Hey What Can I Say... Just Feel the Led
After their groundbreaking first album, this one consolidated Led Zeppelin as the most sought-after, The Rock Gods of the 70s, the ones who rightfully took up the torch from the Beatles with a bluesyer, harder sound that set the world on fire. Every single member is at the top of their game on this one. From the initial, iconic "Whole Lotta Love" they rock hard as they should and as their fans expected back then. A must-have for any LZ fan and highly recommended for any rock music lover in general. It arrived in perfect condition.

I mean, it’s Zeppelin 2.
So first off, this sounds incredible on vinyl. The second record is outtakes and alt versions of tracks from volume 2 plus some sweet surprises that really do take you back to a special time. So worth the money and I love the packaging. It’s also my personal favorite of there catalog. Enjoy friends!

Almost forgot how great it is
Haven't heard this album in its entirety for years. Almost forgot how great it is! One of their very best, Page demonstrates just what a ripper of a guitarist he is; Bonham thunders on the drums, Jones skips merrily up and down the fretboard. And Plant? His young voice soars! One of the very best Zepplin albums, there is. And the extra "rough cut" album is a plus. I highly recommend this album, especially to anyone who may actually be unfamiliar with Zepplin's music.

Nothing more needs to be said, an absolute classic made better.
What an absolutely amazing album, possibly my favourite Led Zep album and with the addition of rough mixes and demos, it just got a smidgeon better. Sounds incredible on vinyl through a valve amp, classic setup for a classic album.
S**!
Dla fanów winyli.
Super wydanie, polecam!

Great Vinyl. A must buy.
Great Album. A must for all Led Zep fans. I had the original copy but that was very long back and is now worn out so a replacement was much needed. The remastering is is of a very good quality the pressing is excellent.
