Remasters is a compilation from Led Zeppelin, released by Atlantic on 15 October 1990. It came out as a three-LP set, or on two cassettes or two CDs, and it gathers digitally remastered songs from the band's eight studio albums. That makes it a handy way into a catalogue that ran from 1969 to 1979.

It works as a smaller companion to the four-CD Led Zeppelin Boxed Set, drawing on much of the same material. The one difference is that Remasters includes "Good Times Bad Times", which the larger collection leaves out. For anyone who wants the band's range in a more compact form, from blues rock and folk-tinged moments to heavier riffing, it makes a sensible place to start.
