Songs From the Studio Vaults
These 9 titles are the quickest way to get all known studio outtake material with minimal redundancies. They are listed by their date of release:
TDOLZ's "Sessions," 2cd
Empress Valley's "Lost Sessions Vol.2," 1cd
Celebraton's "Alternative Graffiti," 2cd
Empress Valley's "Lost Sessions Vol.4," 2cd
Akashic's "Smithereens," 3cd
Empress Valley's "Lost Mixes EP Vol,7," 1cd
Empress Valley's "Lost Sessions Vol.8," 1cd
Scorpio's "Studio Sessions Ultimate," 12cd
Empress Valley's "Lost Sessions Vol.9," 1cd
TDOLZ's Sessions presents 36 minutes of undocumented Battle of Evermore material.
Empress Valley's Lost Sessions Vol.2 debuts the first peak at some new outtakes from the second album.
Celebration's Alternative Graffiti title releases the "long version" of Trampled Underfoot. The ending is about a dozen seconds longer than the album length version.
Empress Valley's Lost Sessions Vol.4 debuts drum tracks from In Through the Out Door's rehearsals.
Akashic's Smithereens includes an outtake of The Song Remains the Same (cd3, track4). It also includes all of the new material released on EV3, making it fully redundant. (EV3 included a more complete version of the new track released on "All That Glitters is Gold," making it fully redundant.)
Empress Valley's Lost Mixes Vol,7 provides 2 mixes prepared by Jimmy while producing Coda.
Empress Valley's Lost Sessions Vol.8's only contribution is Poor Tom. It's ending is a few seconds longer, but is most likely explained as a mixing error. The other material on the title can be found on other titles, including Coda.
Scorpio's title debuts almost 18 minutes of new tape. It also fully displaces the following four titles:
Antrabata's "Studio Sessions," 11cd
Midas Touch's "Brutal Artistry," 3cd
Midas Touch's "Brutal Artistry II," 2cd
Empress Valley's "Lost Mixes EP Vol.1," 1cd
Empress Valley's Lost Sessions Vol.9 debuts a Stairway To Heaven outtake.
Luis Rey's 1997 book "Led Zeppelin Live" was closely followed while assembling notes - his page numbers are referenced on each title's page.
The first two columns are the track number and the sub-track letter, if applicable. The track times are approximate, either counting actual audio or stated disc time. This information is just to help myself and others account for the vast amount of material.
