klepzep Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 How the West Was Won...The BBC set is excellent but I had some difficulty in considering it a 'real' live album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamDimas Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Another vote for Song Remains The Same although I love How The West Was Won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim6225 Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 They're all really good, with BBC Sessions being a bit of an oddity in the grouping -- imo. I went with How the West Was Won. I'm listening to Heartbreaker from that right now. Satisfying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackDog71 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 "How the West Was Won" wins for me. I love the song selection (even though it's mostly earlier material) and the band just sounded so good on this. It's always been my favorite.

tmtomh Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 HWWW for me too. I notice The Song Remains the Same is running 2nd, with Celebration Day third. I love TSRTS - grew up with it - but 1:30 previews of all 16 songs on Celebration Day are now available on the iTunes Store. Based on them, I'd say Celebration Day will claim the #2 spot when it comes out and everyone gets a chance to hear it. Don't get me wrong - Zeppelin in TSRTS are at the end of the one year period (mid-'72 to mid-'73) when they probably were at their technical peak. But TSRTS is, unfortunately, far from their best set of performances of that period. Given that, as well as the spread of tracks and sound quality, I think Celebration Day might edge it.

Michael678 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 sry but i say TSRTS new version well because, first of all, my dad has BBC sessions on CD and i thought it was pretty cool, but i think this is still too early for the group and they still were kinda "underground" at that time second, i gotten Celebration Day for Xmas and the reunion was SPECTACULAR TO THE MAX but it couldve been more "improvisational" and "experimental" for my taste, and third, i haven't really heard How the West Was Won yet, but i did see a copy at a Best Buy though, so yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzepfilm Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 HTWWW wins it for me. Although it has edits and such, it's still a fantastic album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cecil. Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I still have a place in my heart for the old TSRTS vinyl, but HTWWW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zepphile Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I can't pick one! Although my least favorite is HTWWW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ugra Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 TSRTS is so nostalgic & mystical, but voted HTWWW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
in_the_evening Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I picked Celebration Day. Any live album without Kashmir is lacking, haha! But seriously, it's a great album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stairway is NOT stolen Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 If you asked me when I first started to listen to Led Zeppelin live (about a year ago) I would have said TSRTS. But now, if you ask me, HTWWW is SO much better. It shows Zeppelin at their true peak. it has everything. Plant's voice is unbeatable, JImmy is very tight and agile. Bonham is powerful and fast, but still manages to be delicate when needed. John Paul Jones is just perfect, like he always is. Better track selection too.

HTWWW is a bit 'loudness-warry' if you ask me. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loudness_war Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
