A rare concert team-up between one of the great blues-rock bands of the last four decades and one of the greatest guitarists of all time is getting revisited in a new 3CD or 6LP set due for release next month. Originally released in 2000, less than a year after it was recorded, Jimmy Page and The Black Crowes' Live At The Greek was a double album featuring the group and the former Led Zeppelin guitarist tearing through renditions of classics from the latter band's catalogue, plus a heap of

Cameron Crowe, in association with Universal Music, has done the (near-) impossible. On July 9, the writer-director will revisit the soundtrack to his 2000 instant classic Almost Famous in greatly expanded, near-complete form, including five - yes, five! - Led Zeppelin songs plus tracks by other typically difficult-to-license artists including Simon and Garfunkel, The Who, Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, David Bowie, and Stevie Wonder. That's not to mention new Rock and

Fifteen years ago, Led Zeppelin issued How the West Was Won, premiering performances from the band's June 25 and 27, 1972 concerts at the Los Angeles Forum and Long Beach Arena. Now, those seminal tracks have been newly remastered under the supervision of Jimmy Page for a surprise addition to the band's Super Deluxe library - as well as in a variety of formats, all of which are due from Atlantic/Swan Song on March 23 including the first-ever Blu-ray Audio and vinyl editions.

REMINDER! Tomorrow, July 31, marks one month of Friday release days, and it's perhaps the most momentous yet - because tomorrow is when Led Zeppelin will conclude its much-heralded deluxe edition series with a plethora of reissues for its three final studio albums: Presence, In Through the Out Door and Coda. As with the previous deluxe editions, Presence, In Through The Out Door, and Coda have been newly remastered by Jimmy Page and are accompanied by companion audio
Come this July, worldwide release day shifts to Friday. And with this morning's announcement from Led Zeppelin, it looks like Friday, July 31, will be the mightiest of the month - and perhaps even the summer! On that date, the band will conclude its deluxe edition series with a plethora of reissues for its three final studio albums: Presence, In Through the Out Door and Coda. As with the previous deluxe editions, Presence, In Through The Out Door, and Coda have been newly remastered by
Today saw the reissue of Physical Graffiti, Led Zeppelin’s first album on the band’s own Swan Song Records label. So it’s appropriate that Rhino chose today to announce the deluxe, expanded reissue for the very first album on Swan Song – the self-titled debut of British hard rock supergroup Bad Company. That 1974 chart-topping album will be joined on April 7 by Bad Company’s 1975 sophomore effort, Straight Shooter in a similarly expanded edition. These reissues, to be available on CD, LP and

The series of expanded and remastered reissues from Led Zeppelin is getting into the home stretch. Following the 2014 deluxe releases of the band’s first five albums, 1975’s Physical Graffiti – the band’s sixth of nine studio albums - will arrive in a variety of formats on February 24, 2015 – exactly forty years after the original album was first unveiled. The hotly-anticipated Physical Graffiti was released almost two years after Led Zeppelin’s last album, Houses of the Holy, and was also the

The wait is over! The second wave of Led Zeppelin reissues arrive in stores today! Led Zeppelin IV premieres an entire alternate version of the album, including the Sunset Sound Mix of "Stairway to Heaven," the U.K. mix of "When the Levee Breaks" and the basic track with guitar overdubs of "Black Dog."

Led Zeppelin wasn’t built in a day. “Good Times Bad Times,” the first track off the hard rock combo’s first album, today sounds very much of its time and also unusually forward-thinking. The crunchy riff that introduces the track augured for the amped-up sound of metal to come, but the opening verse and chorus still have one foot in mod pop. Yet the sheer attack that marks Zeppelin’s best work was already there. Jimmy Page’s guitar cuts loose at about the minute-and-a-half point, John Bonham’s

After endless speculation fueled by former guitarist Jimmy Page, Led Zeppelin and Atlantic/Swan Song today announced the first wave in a new reissue campaign from one of the world's most acclaimed rock bands. Starting on June 3, with the first three Led Zeppelin albums from 1969-1970 - all self-titled, with Roman numerals appended to each "sequel" - Page has overseen remastered and expanded versions of each of the band's albums, all featuring a disc's worth of unreleased vault content,
When Screaming Lord Sutch promised the presence of some “Heavy Friends,” he wasn’t messing around. The cover of 1970’s Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends boasts some of the heaviest hitters in rock and roll: guitarists Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck, drummer John Bonham, pianist Nicky Hopkins and Jimi Hendrix Experience bassist Noel Redding. It’s recently been remastered and reissued by Cherry Red’s Esoteric Recordings imprint, and certainly qualifies for release on a label called Esoteric! David Edward
It was the reunion everyone wanted, but possibly never expected. On December 10, 2007, at London's O2 Arena, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones and Jason Bonham (John's son) took the stage as Led Zeppelin for the first time since the band broke up in 1980. (Page, Plant and Jones had several tepidly-received reunions in the '80s, one at Live Aid and one at the Atlantic Records 40th anniversary concert, but none were considered by the band to be true Led Zeppelin performances.) It was the
