This is a killer collection of studio outtakes, alternate versions, and working versions of some of Led Zeppelin's finest songs. All tracks sound great, as they were recorded in the studio! Page's extended Swan Song instrumental on disc 2 is a document of his sheer musical genius. This title assembles three great sessions (Headley Grange 74, Swan Song, and the Physical Graffiti outtakes) into one tremendous package. Highly recommended!
