 How the West Was Won
How the West Was Won is a tremendous collection of Led Zeppelin music on tour for their 1972 tour that includes several songs from their yet to be released album, Houses of the Holy.
The release of How the West Was Won was released the same day as their video, Led Zeppelin DVD, adding to small amount of live Led Zeppelin that was previously available.
The other songs performed, but not on the album are "Louie Louie," "Thank You," and "Communication Breakdown." Perhaps there are reasons that additional songs were left off due to tape problems, but if not they should have been included.

 My Amazon Store :: Coda
This is a must for real Led Zeppelin fan but not even nearly as good as the first 6 Led Zeppelin album which all are huge classics.
I have to say that this album is for sure my least favourite Led Zeppelin album.
Coda, released in 1982 after the breakup of the band, was the result of a trawl through the studio archives in search of leftover material.

 Stereophile: Recording of August 2003: How the West Was Won
In the end, How the West Was Won is about four very large talents coming into focus as one unit: the proverbially rewarding sum of the parts.
Recorded just after Led Zeppelin IV (aka "Zoso," a simplistic reading of the runic characters on the album's cover) and just before 1973's Houses of the Holy, these shows reveal the band at, if not their peak, then rapidly approaching it.
While his solo on "Moby Dick," which clocks in at 19:20, is light-years past the obligatory and much-ridiculed rock-band drum solo, it's in tunes such as this set's storming version of "Rock and Roll," Bonham whipping the arrangement along before rolling out triplets at the song's conclusion, that define how essential his contributions were.

"How The West Was Won" is Led Zeppelin at their best: raw, uninhibited and ready to tare the house down.
Also when listening to it, one cannot help but notice how good the sound quality is. Any Zeppelin fan knows that Jimmy Page, producer for all the albums and a key songwriter, settles for nothing but the best, and only that.
Although the Houses of the Holy album had yet to be released, those in attendence were treated to previews of some of the songs, and the versions of "Over the Hills and Far Away," "Dancing Days," and "The Ocean" all kick massive behind.

 Led Zeppelin - How The West Was Won DVD-Audio disc reviewed
One of these performances of note is on one of the band’s signature songs “Heartbreaker,&; featuring the guitar handiwork of Jimmy Page, which on How The West Was Won includes a long, stream-of-consciousness solo.
The album is a collection of songs performed live at venues in Southern California between the band’s landmark “fourth” album and their creatively stellar House of the Holy record, circa 1975.
Some say that because of the four-track recording techniques used on the early albums, the project may be close to impossible.

 Led Zeppelin - How The West Was Won - Atlantic Records - DVD-Audio
With How The West Was Won ending an official drought of Led Zeppelin product and its coverage of the band in their environment (live), one would have to be very careful with their given name to avoid derision or even death by misadventure.
How the West Was Won is a great set that is unbridled by fantasy and is packed with the real deal.
The first thing that pops up is the album cover art with menu highlighted, kind of clunky and useless when it could have gone straight to the menu.

This is Led Zeppelin at its best and an illustration of How The West Was Won." As if the West had so much as a fighting chance, and not more really needs to be said beyond that this is Led Zeppelin at its best.
This was their White Album, and no other Led Zeppelin album ranges as far or better showcases the depth of their talents.
Since Led Zeppelin were consummate album artists whose studio albums were meticulously thought through affairs - from the artwork down to the song sequencing - listening to the original classics is the best way to get to know the group.

Led Zeppelin's How the West Was Won was released in May of 2003.
When Led Zeppelin's catalogue was first released on CD, the sound quality was inferior, so Jimmy Page himself remastered the CDs, showing that he not only cares about the old fans, but the young fans growing in the 90s discovering the group (like this one).
You don't have to waste your time thinking about whether this is the greatest live album of all time, or the greatest live Led Zeppelin album of all time.

 U-WIRE.com/DVD REVIEW: New box set proves Led Zeppelin lives on
The three-disc set of "How the West Was Won" a spin-off audio release is comprised of material from those concerts, and serves as a reminder of why the mighty Zeppelin was untouchable in its arena-rocking heyday.
The disc moves from the sounds of an eager L.A. crowd, to the point where Led Zeppelin launches into a spirited version of "Immigrant Song," from the band's self-titled album.
No Led Zeppelin set would be complete without the song by which all other hard rock songs are measured: "Stairway to Heaven." The song translates perfectly from the studio version; the acoustic parts performed on Page's 12-string echo clearly and hauntingly, making for a totally hypnotizing listen.
