The better Led Zeppellin live recordings on vinyl.


I haven't heard the The Song Remains the Same, since I wore
it out in my Nakamichi cassette deck in my car long ago. I have most all the classic on vinyl, except for In through the out door and Coda. I was wondering what the general thoughts are on How the West was Won, and The song Remains the Same on Vinyl. I am looking for a decent representaion of Zep in concert. I am also open minded to private type
live Zep that you may have listened to. Any opinions are greatly appreciated. I am aware that the TSRTS has generally not been recognized for it's recording quality.
This makes me wonder why Classic bothered w/ that one.

The best package for experiencing Zeppelin live is the 2 disc Led Zeppelin DVD set from a few years back. I think HTWWW is the CD music only equivalent as i recall.

Zeppelin live as with many major rock acts of their day live was never about sound quality, so no sense in obsessing about that in teh case of Zeppelin live. You need the video to really absorb what was going on.

A good CD only supplement to that package to get a big taste of raw Zeppelin in their prime with Ok sound then is the BBC Recordings CD package.
