The Complete Studio Recordings is a ten compact disc collection by English rock group Led Zeppelin, released by Atlantic Records on 24 September 1993.

It contains all ten of the digitally remastered Led Zeppelin studio albums digitally remastered, plus 'Baby Come On Home', 'Travelling Riverside Blues', 'White Summer'/'Black Mountain Side', and 'Hey Hey What Can I Do' which were added to the remastered Coda (album)|Coda disc (Disc 10). These tracks were previously scattered over the preceding box sets. Each album is placed in a glossy booklet-style sleeve with production notes and cover images. These are individually housed chronologically with the exception of Presence placed between Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti. The intention was to keep the double album together in the one booklet sleeve.[1]

An extended essay by journalist Cameron Crowe, originally written for the first Led Zeppelin (box set)|Led Zeppelin boxed set, is featured along with various photographs of the band. The box set case design is based on the scaffolding and beams that support the exterior skin of a Zeppelin airship, which maintained the airframe. Each of the ten compact discs also has a picture of the inside of a Zeppelin on it, with no two the same, or coinciding with the picture on the exterior of the box set.
