Jimmy Page Confirms Unreleased Material for Led Zeppelin Reissues

Jimmy Page has been talking to Team Rock Radio about the upcoming Led Zeppelin remasters, and the companion discs that will come with each album.

“Each of the albums has been remastered but it also has a companion disc with it,” Page reveals. “Let’s take for example, ‘Led Zeppelin III’ – that’s remastered from analogue from the original thing. I know everybody does that, but what they don’t do.. I revisited all the working mixes that were done at the time.

“There’s different versions. Say for example, there’s ‘Since I’ve Been Loving You’ – there’s an incredible version of that which is totally different, it’s really raw in its approach, it’s quite dramatic, it’s cool.

“That’s one little item of it, but what it gives is a companion disc to ‘Led Zeppelin III.’ It’ll come out in its own box. Each disc will give a really intimate picture of the group – that’s the idea that I’ve had with it and I think it’s successful.”

Page also confirmed that the remasters will contain unreleased material, but was tightlipped as to what that material will be:

“I can’t tell you … it’s got to be a little bit of a surprise, I can’t give all the games away.”
