Union 5-3992 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 A tad disappointed. I'd much rather hear some outtakes or more live material. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troutman Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Is it really worth buying as far as sound quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Grownup Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Is it really worth buying as far as sound quality? Probably not. The sound quality is probably the same, but you might get it with a more modern sound. Perhaps a bucket load of loudness thrown into it. I'm gonna stick with the originals, to me that's the way it's always supposed to sound like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't see spending the money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReRushed Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I haven't caved in... yet. For some reason, I'm not excited about these re-issues. I am excited for other artists' re-issues, but not Led Zeppelin. I have the Complete Studio Recordings boxset, The Song Remains the Same, the BBC Sessions and How the West Was Won. And the Listen to This Eddie bootleg. I am sated... for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toscanobarga Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 A bit disappointed in the additional material, I went for Super Deluxe with the first 3, probably just get the vinyl with these. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fritz44 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I've only purchased the double CD of III - my favourite Zep album. I know I will buy the rest at some point. I'm a marketing man's dream buyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod in Toronto Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I won't be buying those, but am looking forward to the Physical Graffiti, Presence and In Through the Out Door editions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
custom55 Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Just pre-ordered IV and was able to download Black Dog. Sounds better than what you'll hear on youtube. I cannot wait until Oct 28th... for The Battle of Evermore ( mandolin/guitar mix from Headley Grange ) http://youtu.be/yPGfDx6mB8w 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steevo Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I cannot wait until Oct 28th... for The Battle of Evermore ( mandolin/guitar mix from Headley Grange ) Me either. I'm just settling for all the deluxe editions. These releases are essential for the extras, and all the original artwork/running order which I never have owned...just the original Remasters mess.

EmotionDetector Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 (edited) Is it really worth buying as far as sound quality? Probably not. The sound quality is probably the same, but you might get it with a more modern sound. Perhaps a bucket load of loudness thrown into it. I'm gonna stick with the originals, to me that's the way it's always supposed to sound like. I think the same as well. To be honest, I'm always torn with these "reissues / remasters". Sometimes, they do add a nice clarity to songs, but in other instances, they ruin them in my opinion. I'll post an example here, since this one comes to mind for me every time. KISS released a remastered compilation album a few years back called "Gold". Now, their song "Love Gun" has one of my favourite guitar solos from Ace. To me, it is completely ruined on the "Gold" version...as Paul Stanley's repetitive "Love Gun" line is too much in the front that it actually drowns out the solo for the most part. Here are the two examples (original and remastered). The solo starts around 2:25 and on. Original (from 'Smashes, Thrashes, and Hits'):http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X133gJSYHXs Remastered (from 'KISS Gold'):http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GHmWZ-58yE Edited November 7, 2014 by EmotionDetector Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
custom55 Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) I'm in heaven with these two recent re-releases. Two of my fave LZ songs remastered/remixed/rewhatever. http://youtu.be/nuOkvDtbZA0 http://youtu.be/uIHEhlYj6vU Edited November 8, 2014 by custom55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
