Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page will release 'Lucifer Rising and Other Sound Tracks' on March 20 via his official website. The record features re-worked versions of unreleased songs intended for the 1972 film of the same name, as well as "avant-garde compositions and experiments" from other projects.

Page reportedly composed 31 minutes of music for director Kenneth Anger's short film, but the pair had a falling out and the guitarist's work, though heavily bootlegged, has never been officially released. The music has been "revisited, remixed and remastered" for this collection.

The album's release -- and we do mean album, because much like last fall's release of Page's 'Death Wish II' soundtrack, it looks like this sucker's only coming out on heavyweight vinyl -- is timed to coincide with the 2012 Spring Equinox, in a very Page-y move.

There will be a standard edition for about $31, and fans will be able to register for a chance to purchase one of 418 deluxe editions ($47) as well. To make things even more complicated, 93 of those deluxe editions have been signed by Page. Buying one of those will run you about $308, and even then it's not a sure thing. There is already a lottery to pre-register for your chance to buy either the deluxe or signed deluxe editions of 'Lucifer Rising,' and you need to sign up by Sunday, March 18 at 11:59 PM Greenwich Mean Time. That's four hours later than Eastern Standard Time, and you're welcome!
