For My Life Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 It doesn't make a huge difference to me as I own all the LZ catalog anyway, although I am a Spotify subscriber. I just hope that they take the trouble to name all the tracks properly when they're uploaded to Spotify. It's amazing how sloppy and inconsistent the record companies are sometimes. I've even seen spelling mistakes in the names of tracks and albums on Spotify, or the name of a band spelled two different ways! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DropDown Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I own the whole LZ catalog as well on various formats and you're right about getting names correct; this also happens on iTunes - I have albums from both "Yardbirds" and "The Yardbirds"! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sam_webmaster Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Led Zeppelin is now on Spotify. Starting today, the catalogue is being released in chronological order over the course of the week. Play now: http://spoti.fi/LedZep Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Melcórë Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Seeing as I live in Canada and get my music through other means, the significance of this deal is somewhat lost on me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
henrybonzo Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 only I & II ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DropDown Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 The rest will be made available over the next few days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Elderer Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Are these going to be versions we have atm or those that are/were remixed for upcoming box sets?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Melcórë Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Are these going to be versions we have atm or those that are/were remixed for upcoming box sets?! "Remastered," not "remixed." I'm asking a friend who has access to the service to compare with the Mastered for iTunes release from last year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chillumpuffer Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Yes only 1 & 2 at the moment of which I have the vinyl. It will be interesting to hear the difference in quality, although I bet the Vinyl still sounds the best. I am a subscriber, a bargain at £4.99 monthly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Led Dirigible Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 i have no idea what spotify is .....It is an online on demand music streaming service. For a monthly fee, users can listen to any of the songs within Spotify's catalog. https://www.spotify.com/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TLIL Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 It is an online on demand music streaming service. For a monthly fee, users can listen to any of the songs within Spotify's catalog.https://www.spotify.com/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotify & they can download too & yes, all the credits & artist detail & the music itself is far from a priority. yes, there has to be new tech & new music delivery methods as time goes on, but it MUST support existing music & nurture new music creation life is not a free for all. orgs & mindsets like spotify, see it as such & make money (a LOT!) out of advertising. did you enjoy the ads on your old vinyl LP? as you sat there and lost yourself in the music and artwork?

Elderer Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 aye Melcore,thats what I meant.words evade me today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deborah J Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Several videos are already on you tube. A friend called me about this. For those who like this it's great,but I still like vinyl and as long as I have albums and a good turntable and sound system that is my choice of how I listen to music. http://youtu.be/8-bqtSsB-2o Quote Link to post Share on other sites
truth and beauty Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Arrgh ! This will take me a little time ... ! So 1) Led Zeppelin are on Spotify 2) Spotify is now on mobiles which is a promising feature 3) My neighbour has mastered listening to new music on Spotify and another friend also swears by it. I have therefore finally signed up. First thing is I get an awful cover version of The Ocean Next, Trampled Underfoot - somehow sourced from my own collection on itunes (HOW?) .. Well, onwards... I'd better make it work. Not going to bed till I've heard Dazed and Confused ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
truth and beauty Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Ooh ok now I've done it. Listening to Good Times Bad Times. Sounds the same as it always does but somehow very exciting... If you can listen to the same thing on a new medium and get a buzz from it, how good will it be when those box sets come out ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yialison Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Well, I'm a Korean, and I have my own online streaming service, but from what I have read people have been complaining for years for the absence of LZ songs on spotify. So, congratulations, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bayougal65 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I just hope this might introduce Led Zeppelin's vast and varied catalog to those who might not know them. I am always especially excited to hear of people younger than me digging on the best band ever! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
henrybonzo Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I had all my cds pinched so this is handy, I have already paid for the albums and i pay 9.99 a month so it's not really free, in the long run I have spent more on spotify than actual albums Quote Link to post Share on other sites
For My Life Posted December 12, 2013 Author Share Posted December 12, 2013 Okay, the first four albums are up and as I expected I have a minor gripe! The two tracks that contain brackets in their titles ('Hats Off To (Roy) Harper' and 'Living Loving Maid (She's Just A Woman)') have been uploaded with square [ ] brackets in the titles instead of round ( ) brackets as they should be. Is it too much to ask for the record company to get this right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
