Jimmy Page insists that nothing is going to be held back from the re-issued Led Zeppelin albums.

The guitarist has been busy over the past couple of years remastering the rock band's back catalogue and searching through archives for unheard material for companion discs for each LP.
Fans have been promised by Page that there's more to come on the series' final releases, and they should expect more surprises, especially on final record 'Coda', made after John Bonham's death in 1980.
Speaking at the launch of 'Physical Graffiti' this week, Page explained: "I'm not holding anything back, we've got three more albums to come anyway so let's see what comes out. We've got 'Presence' coming, 'In Through the Out Door' coming and 'Coda' and 'Coda' at the time was the result of things that were pulled in from the past because we didn't have John Bonham at that time."
Smiling, he went on to add: "I'll just let you think about what's coming and I won't confirm it until it's done."
Very excited about the LP's release, there will be an extra disc of seven previously unreleased tracks and an early recording of 'Trampled Under My Foot', titled 'Brandy & Coke'.
Insisting he and his abndmates wanted to blow people away with the initial album release, he thinks the record is just as powerful nowadays.
"We wanted to make an album that was going to knock everyone's socks off with both how it sounded and how it looked, all of it. It approaches all different areas, it has acoustic as well, the whole of the album is a tour de force. We were also really keen to make sure that the packaging and the artwork were great. Everyone was paying so much attention to the artwork right across the world, and not just to Led Zeppelin. We wanted artwork that would compliment everything on the album. It's attention to detail in every respect."
'Physical Graffiti' is available from February 23, almost 40 years to the day after the LP's original February 24, 1975, release.
