same album

[edit]

Anyone notice all these songs (Besides 'D'yer Mak'er') were released in a dual-disc compilation album? I mean what's the point of even releasing this, although I'm a huge Led Zeppelin fan and probably will buy it. 71.238.255.214 08:35, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Compare this one with the Mothership. ridiculous. On Remasters, you have 26 Tracks (15+11), on Mothership it's only 24 (13+11). Most of the songs are the same. On Remasters, you get Celebration Days, The Battle of Evermore and Misty Mountain Hop which aren't on Mothership. Mothership however has When the Levee Breaks. One song to beat three others...? That's for each of the first disks. On disk 2 the only difference is The Rain Song (Remasters) instead of Over The Hills And Far Away (Mothership).
OK, if I had to choose between those two today, I would maybe actually go for mothership because the cover of Remasters wasn't such a beauty. But if I already owned Remasters, why buy the other one? Sorry, a bit off-topic perhaps...--Rupert Pupkin (talk) 00:17, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And you get the music ruined because of the "remastering" process... ie. applying excessive dynamic range compression. The songs on this album sound terrible. Please don't buy it. See: Loudness war

Your assessment is incorrect. The article clearly shows multiple references and lists personnel. MegX (talk) 23:44, 8 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Beresford Hotel, Glasgow, Scotland. Unsourced. Unlikely.

[edit]

The unsourced claim was made that the cover is a graphical interpretation of the Beresford Hotel, Glasgow, Scotland. Not only is the claim unsourced, but it is also unlikely on the face of the matter. All the cover and the hotel have in common is Art Deco styling. There are no distinctive details of the hotel that appear on the cover. Acorrector (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 13:11, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Album Cover

[edit]

Would be nice to know what that cover is. It looks nice. Where did it come from? 2600:4040:93E7:5A00:11C2:1092:C42B:EC26 (talk) 02:27, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
