LED ZEPPELIN guitarist Jimmy Page has confirmed that the band's forthcoming album reissues will include previously unreleased material.

In an interview with Team Rock Radio's Nicky Horne earlier this evening (November 14th) at the ninth annual Classic Rock Roll Of Honour in London, England, Page revealed that "each of the (Led Zeppelin) albums has been remastered, but it also has a companion disc with it. So for example, Led Zeppelin III — that's remastered from the analog, from the original thing. I know everybody does that, but what they don't do is... I revisited all the working mixes that were done at the time."

"There's various different versions. Say, for example, 'Since I've Been Loving You' - there's an incredible version of that which is totally different - I say totally different, it's the same song. But it's really raw in its approach, it's quite dramatic, it's cool. That's one little item of it, but what it gives is a companion disc to Led Zeppelin III. It'll come out in its own little box. Each disc will give a really intimate picture of the group. That's the idea that I've had with it and I think it's successful. It's all done, all the sonic side of it. It'll come out next year. When I say 'it' — each box comes out separately."

Asked if the reissues will contain any recordings we haven't heard, Page replied: "Oh yeah, yeah. I can't tell you... It's got to be a little bit of a surprise, I can't give all the games away."
