How the West Was Won is MUCH better. I'd honestly rate Song Remains the Same at two and a half stars, and How the West Was Won at 4.5. The show for TSRTS is, well, boring. Dull. There is no energy behind it in a lot of parts. Jimmy is on, but Robert is pretty far gone. Just listen to Rock and Roll... where's the fire? Where's the punch? The same can be said about a lot of songs on that album.
