Does anyone have the Amazon link? I don't see it there.

Also, anyone know what the companion audio is going to be on these deluxe versions?

 

EDIT: Details of the pressings here:

Searching Amazon didn't work for me either.  All of the different versions are linked via:

http://www.ledzeppelin.com/buy

 

Companion audio just appears to be alternate takes of album tracks unfortunately.

Yeah :( I was so excited for what all of the bonus discs would be after reading what LZ I's was. Then, just disappointment for every release since haha

Just picked up the single LP version of Houses of the Holy and is sounds really muddy and generally pretty shit. All of the other pressings have sounded nice. 

 

Has anyone else found this? Perhaps a dud batch of pressing?

Mine sounded great til I got to the end of The Ocean... got kind of staticky.

Amazon replaced it and I had the same issue, so I just assumed they were all like this... I still haven't gotten around to checking out an older press to see if it's an issue on all releases... I should do that ASAP if I hope to get a replacement at all.

Anyone else experience this ?

My original press sounds fantastic all the way through - no issues on "the Ocean" or anywhere else. (Well, maybe on "the Crunge" because I hate that song and never listen to it.)

 

Thanks for the warning though, as I was planning on picking up the reissue of Houses of the Holy. Might pass now.

Houses of the Holy reissues were recalled due to the mispressing on "The Ocean" ... Haven't heard anything regarding another pressing yet.

Got a source by chance?

AMazon is trying to charge me a restocking fee, so I'd like to be able to cite it when I get in touch with them tomorrow.

Thanks for the heads up!!

I think you may have to contact the manufacturer for a replacement, but take a look through this site. It talks all about the issue described here.

Cool.

Thanks for the follow up, man.
