This deluxe edition includes nine previously unreleased tracks. Review "Power and pleasure see-saw for more than three hours in the expanded Complete BBC Sessions. This is Zeppelin from 1969-1971, working through the core material of their first four albums (and taking swaggering side trips through blues and rockabilly classics). Nine newly unearthed songs – a full CD, including the never-before issued stomp "Sunshine Woman" – have been added to the 1997 release. The songs are familiar, but the protean variations of these renditions provide fresh jolts of Zeppelin's audacious blend of brutality and delicacy, desperation and entitlement. Do you need five versions of "Communication Breakdown"? Before you answer, you may want to hear the two new ones here: a March 1969 version that starts off with ringing chords like the Who, and an April 1971 rundown that rages like early Black Flag. Part of the fun is hearing Zeppelin play around with these songs to entertain themselves – tossing in an an elephant-funk snippet of the Isley Brothers' "It's Your Thing" to the end of a June 1969 take of "Communication Breakdown," or Jimmy Page and Robert Plant engaging in an improvised erotic pas de deux across a jelly-filled "You Shook Me" that bumps and grinds on for more than 10 minutes. Live (or recorded with minimal overdubs), the band blends raw need and confidence, and Page's race to match the rhythmic, melodic and cosmic breakthroughs of Jimi Hendrix has never seemed more clear than it does on these tapes. But Zeppelin, ultimately, were their own universe, and this is the sound of them willing into it glory, bit by bit." - Joe Levy, Rolling Stone Review: A very good re-issue - What is it about Led Zeppelin that makes normally sane rock fans seemingly lose all sense of perspective? Yes I know they are one of the greatest bands to have walked this earth, but other equally great bands such as the Stones and Floyd don't seem to get us quite as excited about their re-issues. Over the past couple of years we have happily purchased the remastered re-issues despite the remastering on a few of the album's hardly making night and day difference, and the extras, apart from the odd few, not exactly making us feel we'd missed a lot and yet we quite happily went on buying them. When this re-issue was announced I initially said 'hold on, wait and see if the remastering and extras are worth the spend', but immediately there was a little voice in my head saying 'But it's Zeppelin' and I of course immediately caved in and ordered it, after all the voice was right, it's Zeppelin. So do I blame the voice or thank it? Firstly I always liked this album, it was an excellent late addition to the Zeppelin catalogue, part live recording part studio, it presented the band when they were still a hungry young band blasting out their brand of electric blues and acoustic folk. One of the pleasant surprise was hearing the intro to Stairway without screams from the audience, IV had yet to be released. Yes, many of the songs were repeated, but this was Zeppelin, they knew how to cut loose and there are enough differences between the different versions of the songs to ensure they remain interesting. Added to that there were three previously unreleased covers and we had a genuinely interesting new album and not just some kind of cash in. So what about this new version? Firstly the remastering, some on here have said they can't hear the difference between this issue and the original. I have to disagree, the difference is quite clear, and as I said earlier I struggled to hear a difference on some of last year's re-issues. Here the roughness has been smoothed out, which may not appeal to everyone, and it is quieter and Bonham's cymbals have an extra zing to them. That brings us to the extras, 50 minutes of them. Are they essential, probably not, are they interesting, to some of us yes, are they enjoyable, well of course. The last three tracks had the original tapes disappear so these are recordings taken from a radio recording, remember sitting there with a tape deck microphone next to your speaker diligently trying to record your favourite songs off the radio, well that is what these three tracks sound like and no amount of Page pixie dust can hide the fact, they still make for an interesting listen though. So, to answer my own earlier question, I thank the voice for convincing me to buy this re-issue, I'm really enjoying listening to these recordings again. If you have never bought this album before I recommend this version, if, on the other hand you are wondering whether or not to replace your old copy I would suggest you do, go on you know you want to, after all, it's Zeppelin. Review: Led Zep The Complete BBC Sessions - Just like the original studio albums, continuing the 'extra' disc of Led Zeppelin rarities, in this case 8 more tracks on a third CD making the BBC Sessions now The Complete BBC Sessions. Great to hear the extra tracks and buying the album again just for the extra disc. That's marketing for you. The tracks have been around on various bootlegged albums over the years but this is legit and the sound quality is all Jimmy Pages work in the studio. The album comes in a digipak, which folds out, complete with a booklet and the 3 CDs. If you haven't got this album, go for it as it shows Led Zeppelin in their raw live sessions at the BBC covering Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin ll, Led Zeppelin lll and Led Zeppelin lV albums. If you are just getting into Led Zeppellin do not pass this album by, the music is brilliant and a very reasonably priced album. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01IOAAZSE | | Best Sellers Rank | 3,537 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) 140 in Hard Rock 296 in Alternative Rock 455 in Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,287) | | Is discontinued by manufacturer | No | | Label | Rhino | | Manufacturer | Rhino | | Manufacturer reference | 081227943899 | | Number of discs | 3 | | Original Release Date | 2016 | | Product Dimensions | 14.4 x 12.9 x 1.09 cm; 108.01 g | ## Images ![The Complete BBC Sessions - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71POtku7+TL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very good re-issue *by M***L on 17 September 2016* What is it about Led Zeppelin that makes normally sane rock fans seemingly lose all sense of perspective?

The set includes the classic tracks- Communication Breakdown, Dazed and Confused, Immigrant song, Black dog, Heartbreaker, Whole lotta love and Stairway to heaven, plus other not so well known tracks by the band. A great addition to any Led Zeppelin fans collection. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Complete BBC Sessions - How the West Was Won 2018 - The Song Remains the Same 2018 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/48813119-the-complete-bbc-sessions](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/48813119-the-complete-bbc-sessions) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
