If the first box set was the crown jewel of Led Zeppelin’s CD-era resurrection, then this second offering was its necessary footnote. As advertised, every track omitted from the original 1990 release reappears here, gathered onto a two-disc collection that rounds out the catalogue. On paper, that sounds like a leftovers platter. In practice, it’s something more nuanced.
Unsurprisingly, the material here is less iconic. The obvious anthems were scooped up by the first set, leaving Box Set 2 to deal in deeper cuts, marginalia, and overlooked album tracks. That said, mediocrity is a rare thing in the Zeppelin catalogue, and what remains is, in many cases, quietly brilliant. Freed from the pressure of chart placement or legacy curation, these songs take on a different hue—more exploratory, more eccentric, and occasionally more rewarding.
The one previously unreleased track, Baby Come On Home, is an outtake from the band's earliest sessions and the only true rarity here. Unfortunately, it’s more curiosity than revelation. Pleasant enough, but hardly essential.
As a standalone, Box Set 2 lacks cohesion—it’s a collection built by subtraction. But when paired with its predecessor, the logic is clear and the result is satisfying: the complete studio works, neatly partitioned. For fans, it’s less about discovery than completion. Still, even Zeppelin’s second-tier material stands taller than most bands’ best efforts. That, in itself, speaks volumes.
