It would be nice to know what they are being remastered at. Yes, they will offer 24/96 digital downloads, but no mention if those are the new masters or something upsampled.

I wonder who is actually doing the remaster work.

I'm hoping someone like Steve Wilson.. but this is a quote from the email I got;

"Beginning with the June 3 release of deluxe editions of Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, and Led Zeppelin III, the band will launch an extensive reissue program of all nine of its studio albums in chronological order, each remastered by guitarist and producer Jimmy Page."

At the very least I'll be able to replace my beat-up Zep 1 record.

Sounds like the hi-res remasters are only going to be part of the Super Deluxe package. Hope that isn't the case.

I hope that the album covers look nice. Even on the single LP editions. Most LP reissues covers look like a bad xerox. Even the Classic records versions looked like crap.
