l just discovered another one of the record companies dirty tricks?

Sam here and why is it that so many remastered digital and vinyl albums have the (L) + (R) channels swapped from the original released version? it’s a fact that we associate memories with the music we were listening to at the time and by swapping the channels the brain does not associate the music with the memory and we don’t remember how good we used to have it and how good real music made us feel. When jimmy page released the 2014 zep digital and vinyl box set everybody noticed that once again the channels were swapped?

Just pretend you’re actually on stage with the band--then everything is right, and, wow, what a rush to be on stage with Led Zep!
I’ve experienced this same thing with classical piano recordings. It seems sometimes the butt end of the piano is facing me and sometimes the keyboard.  So, the low and high ends of the range are reversed in the stereo L-R image.

It‘s obviously big pharmacy in league with the recording industry yet again.
Or just perhaps Aleister Crowley made Jimmy Page do it. It‘s a pity you can‘t play CD‘s in reverse to find out.......
