Led Zeppelin Announce Final Three Deluxe Reissues…

 The companion audio disc for the deluxe version of Presence – an album that the group recorded over 18 days in Munich – contains five previously unreleased reference mixes from the sessions, which show the album versions as works in progress. These tracks include alternate versions of “For Your Life,” “Achilles Last Stand” and “Royal Orleans” and will contain the previously unreleased instrumental, “10 Ribs & all/Carrot Pod Pod (Pod).”

In Through the Out Door’s companion audio features rough mixes of every song on the LP, including early versions of “All My Love” (titled “The Hook”), “Carouselambra” (titled “The Epic”) and “I’m Gonna Crawl” (“Blot”).

Finally, the deluxe edition of Coda – released two years after the death of drummer John Bonham – features two discs’ worth of companion audio, which span recordings the group made between 1968 and 1974. The bluesy, rare track “Sugar Mama,” which Led Zeppelin recorded at Olympic Studios during the sessions that became Led Zeppelin, is the most notable and is finally getting an official release. “Baby Come Home” also features on the bonus disc and culls from the same session. Similarly, the record contains the previously unreleased “St. Tristan’s Sword,” an instrumental that dates back to the 1970 sessions for Led Zeppelin III.

Coda’s bonus material will also contain recordings from Page and Robert Plant‘s 1972 trip to India, where they performed an early version of “Four Sticks” (titled “Four Hands”) and “Friends” with the Bombay Orchestra. The album will also include an early version of “When the Levee Breaks” from 1970 (titled “If It Keeps on Raining”), rough mixes of “The Wanton Song” and “In the Light” from the Physical Graffiti sessions and an instrumental mix of their 1970 recording “Poor Tom.”
