Led Zeppelin are set to release an updated version of their 1997 live album BBC Sessions. The new 2-CD compilation, The Complete BBC Sessions, is out September 16. The re-release will feature eight previously unreleased songs, as well as the song “White Summer,” which, until now, was only available on The Led Zeppelin Boxed Set.

Other rarities on the album include the only recording of “Sunshine Woman,” a song Led Zeppelin performed but never recorded in a studio setting. A recording was given to guitarist Jimmy Page by a fan who taped it when originally broadcast on AM radio, and Page remastered the audio for the new album.

Page says of the BBC Sessions, “We’d been on the road a lot by the time those sessions were recorded. The albums were always the starting point of the music, and then we’d take it out and expand it on the road. Then we’d come straight off the road into those BBC studios.”
