Still None The WiserDecember 8, 2008 G. ROBERTS(Llandough) I think something is very wrong here. I have emailed & rang Amazon a number of times about this.Complete Studio Recordings The Amazon Picture shows the cover of Led Zeppelin 1. The number of discs is shown as just 1. If the number of discs should be 10 then Amazon really have got a 1 der ful product here. Every Classic Studio track that has to date seen the light of day officially from Messrs Page,Plant,Jones & Bonham. However if it is 1 disc and the cover shown by Amazon is correct and remains the same as LZ1 , then I am really Dazed and Confuzed !!!!
Cool!February 8, 2008 Emily(Cheltenham, England) I really love this, it's a pressie for valentine's day, but I'm quite keen to keep it!
Although it has mixed reviews in terms of packaging I like it. What you get it basically a patterned grey/black box. The lid lifts up on the top to reveal the spines of 5 CD cases and a CD shaped booklet. Each CD case contains 2 CDs and the track listings etc.
Marvelous.
Oh, and the music's pretty good too! ;-)

When you are down with flu and start surfing amazon with a Led Zep DVD on the widescreen you start to think why dont I check that complete studio set I read about and promised myself last birthday-so I did after the second time the dvd was blasting out Kashmir and thinking yes its my birthday again in 2 weeks time. I looked - I looked again-the price surely cannot be right it must be the flu-it wasnt - the whole collection for less than 7 an album - and when it turned up in its usual prompt Amazon way in a very good looking display box and the album covers reproduced in the slip cases-well it really must be my birthday (almost) {and dont forget the 30 page book plus pictures and album track credits}-if you havent got this dont wait to age any longer-just get it!

Complete Studio Recordings (1993.) A box set covering Led Zeppelin's entire career.
Led Zeppelin. These guys have become known as gods of rock over the years, and with good reason. Their music puts that of this or any other decade to shame. Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page, and John Bonham were musical geniuses, and it was about time they put all of their albums together in one handy set. The Led Zeppelin Complete Studio recordings brings it all together at long last. Read on for my review of this set.
PROS: -Every last one of Led Zeppelin's studio albums is in this set. Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, Led Zeppelin III, Led Zeppelin IV, Houses Of The Holy, Presence, Physical Graffiti, In Through The Out Door, and the outtake collection album Coda are all here for your listening pleasure. -The version of the Coda compilation included with this set features four hard-to-find bonus tracks. -Unlike the other Led Zeppelin box sets, this one isn't a scattershot mixture of tracks - it's got EVERY studio album. -A handy booklet is included with the set. The booklet contains useful information (release dates for albums/singles, etc.), as well as a new essay by legendary rock journalist Cameron Crowe. -You save money by purchasing this set. If you were to buy every Led Zeppelin album separately, you would end up spending more than you would for this box set. The price looks steep at first glance, but in actuality, it's a great deal.
CONS: -I'm not too crazy about the way the individual CDs were packaged in the set. Two CDs each are in five slipcases, each of which contains the art to the two albums, as well as the basic liner note informaton. It's hard to get the CDs out of these slipcases, because you must grab the edge of them. It also gets confusing looking at the liner notes (you actually have to own or see the set to see what I mean.) I was hoping they'd all be individually packaged. Oh, and what's up with the shrunken cover art? -Because it's the complete STUDIO Recordings, you don't get the band's early BBC session recordings or the live releases The Song Remains The Same and How The West Was Won. -Just a little word of caution - this is common knowledge to most people, but the following material is NOT in this box set: Robert Plant solo material, David Coverdale/Jimmy Page material, and Led Zeppelin's live albums.
OVERALL: One of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time has put together all of their master works, and at long last, you can get all of these works together in one convenient set. Sure, the set isn't quite perfect, but it doesn't have to be - the quality of Zeppelin's music more than makes up for it. If you're a rock and roll fan, and this set isn't in your collection, what the hell are you waiting for?
Excellent Music but disappointing presentationJanuary 6, 2004 6 out of 10 found this review helpful
I will not try and add anything about the music - if you are buying this you already know it!
The packaging is probably to some peoples taste but not to mine. I would have preferred a box set of reproductions of the original albums. What you get here is the original artwork on pages of CD sized hardcover books.
Little reason to moan, but when people buy this kind of thing they may do so for more than the music.
