Remasters is a double CD (or triple LP or double cassette) compilation album of digitally remastered material by English rock group Led Zeppelin. It was issued by Atlantic Records on 15 October 1990, originally intended for the European and Japanese markets only. Remasters was initially made available in the United States as a television mail order offer.
The idea for the project came about after Jimmy Page's disliking of the sub-standard mid-1980s conversion of the Led Zeppelin catalog to CD by Atlantic Records. Page spent a week in May 1990 at Sterling Studios in New York digitally remastering the entire Led Zeppelin catalog with engineer George Marino. The collection is essentially a scaled-down budget version of the four disc Led Zeppelin box set, with the addition of "Good Times Bad Times". The Japanese edition also included a 50 page lyric booklet. Some editions also included a seperate bonus interview disc called Profiled (Atlantic 82371-2). Page was dissatisfied with the television marketing of the Remasters release by Time-Warner and ultimately this edition was discontinued in the US late 1991, and replaced by the expanded longform slim book digipack in 1992. The Remasters double CD edition was again re-issued in September 1997.
