Led Zeppelin Remasters? 16 Years, 7 Months ago Karma: 0  
Jimmy Page has supposedly (no firm confirmation on this) remastered the whole Led catalog and what's to come is reflected in the recently released Mothership. This whole discussion is in part due to the upcoming SHM-CD release of the whole Zep catalog from the 90's remasters. The Mothership tracks are remastered by Jimmy. Interesting. I've been performing my own A/B and the first thing I noticed before I read this was the volume boost. I've been listening using my AKG 701K's which are grail like to me in detail and a dedicated Home HeadRoom amp. My DAC isn't as up to date as others, a Proceed DAP but is good enough I believe to reveal what I'm listening for here. I'm going to continue but I don't get any big eye opener like I get if I listen to say a Dr. Ebbetts needle drop of any Beatles release compared to the EMI version. I wish they would have gone w/a DSD or that Ebbetts would release Zep too.

Die Cut Covers :

Die cutting of the cover image or inserts is probably the most common technique employed to create gimmick covers. It's probably also in most cases the cheapest.

There are thousands of die cut covers. Here are a few of the more popular and best known releases.

VICP-5442,3,4 : 1994-09-21

The first three Emerson Lake and Palmer albums (self titled, Tarkus and Pictures at an Exhibition) are arguably the first true Rock Mini LPs. They were released on 21st September 1994.

These had been preceded by a much earlier Lotus and a US release of some Rolling Stones albums repackaged for Japan a few short months before these. Neither of these earlier releases was true to the original vinyl although the Stones came close.

The earliest true Minis were two series of MCA Jazz releases from March 1994 (MVCZ-26 to MVCZ-45) including this example: Death and The Flower.
