Led Zeppelin To Celebrate 50th Anniversary Of ‘Physical Graffiti’ With New Live EP

Led Zeppelin will celebrate the 50th anniversary of their iconic sixth album, Physical Graffiti, with the release of a new Live EP on 180-gram 12″ vinyl, CD and digital formats on September 12.

Also released on the same date will be an updated 50th Anniversary edition of 2015’s Physical Graffiti Deluxe Edition 3LP vinyl set featuring the Companion Audio disc, now including a new bonus replica Physical Graffiti promotional poster.

The new Live EP features live recordings of “In My Time Of Dying” and “Trampled Under Foot” from Earl’s Court, 1975, alongside “Sick Again” and “Kashmir” from Knebworth, 1979. These live performances were originally released on the 2003 Led Zeppelin DVD and appear on CD / Vinyl / Digital formats for the first time.

Released on February 24, 1975 in the U.S. (and four days later in the U.K.), Physical Graffiti immediately achieved platinum sales status and has recently been certified 17x platinum. Its commercial success was equaled by its critical reception.

Generally regarded as one of the greatest double albums of all time, the original 15 tracks represent a creative tour de force that explores the band’s dynamic musical range.

“It goes from one extreme to the other but at the same time, it’s very evident that it’s Zeppelin… I love the album and it does work as a double album. There are some real humdinger, roaring tracks,” said lead singer Robert Plant.
