Led Zeppelin have announced an exciting new live EP set for release on September 12th, in celebration of the 50th anniversary of their iconic double album Physical Graffiti. This special release not only honors one of the band’s most ambitious and defining works, but also offers fans a rare glimpse into the raw power of Led Zeppelin’s live performances during the mid-1970s.
The upcoming live EP will feature previously unreleased recordings from select concerts during the Physical Graffiti era, widely regarded as one of the band’s creative peaks. While the full tracklist has not yet been revealed, it’s expected to include live renditions of standout Physical Graffiti tracks such as “Kashmir,” “Trampled Under Foot,” and “In My Time of Dying.” These performances, drawn from multi-track tapes discovered in the band’s archives, are being carefully remastered to deliver the closest possible experience to hearing Led Zeppelin live in their prime.
The release will arrive on the same day as an updated version of the Physical Graffiti Deluxe Edition 3xLP box set. Originally released in 2015 as part of the band’s extensive reissue campaign, this updated edition includes newly remastered audio, restored artwork, and fresh liner notes reflecting on the album’s legacy five decades on. The updated deluxe package aims to deliver a definitive version of the landmark record, offering longtime fans and new listeners alike a deeper appreciation of the album’s scope and innovation.
Physical Graffiti, first released in February 1975, was a bold, genre-blending work that spanned blues, hard rock, folk, and Eastern-influenced psychedelia. With tracks like “Ten Years Gone,” “The Rover,” and the monumental “Kashmir,” the album showcased Led Zeppelin’s ability to push the boundaries of rock music while maintaining the visceral energy that had defined their earlier releases. Its original release was a commercial and critical triumph, debuting at No. 1 on both sides of the Atlantic and solidifying the band’s status as rock royalty.
This new live EP is being seen not just as a commemorative release, but as a long-overdue window into one of Led Zeppelin’s most legendary periods. Fans have long clamored for more official live recordings from the mid-‘70s, especially since most available bootlegs don’t meet professional audio standards. This EP answers that demand with high-quality material that captures the explosive musicianship and electric chemistry of Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham at their peak.
In addition to the vinyl editions, digital formats of both the live EP and the remastered deluxe album will be made available across major streaming platforms. Collectors will also be able to purchase limited-edition colored vinyl and exclusive bundles via the band’s official store.
As Led Zeppelin marks 50 years since the release of Physical Graffiti, this dual-release celebration serves as a powerful reminder of the album’s enduring influence—and of the band’s status as one of the greatest live acts in rock history. Whether rediscovering the original tracks or hearing them come alive on stage, fans are in for a powerful, immersive experience this September.
