How the West Was Won - Live album by Led Zeppelin

From Discogs:

Rear of slipcase states: "While I was searching for visual and audio material for the Led Zeppelin DVD I re-discovered these 1972 performances from the 25th June, L.A. Forum and 27th June, Long Beach Arena. This is Led Zeppelin at its best and an illustration of how The West Was Won."

-Jimmy Page, London, March 2003

From Wikipedia:

"How the West Was Won is a live triple album by the English rock group Led Zeppelin, released by Atlantic Records on compact disc on 27 May 2003, DVD-Audio on 7 October 2003 and Blu-ray audio in 2018. The recordings are taken from two 1972 performances in California during their tour of North America: L.A. Forum and Long Beach Arena.

"Guitarist Jimmy Page considers Led Zeppelin at this point to have been at their artistic peak, as is mentioned in the album's liner notes and in an interview he gave to The Times newspaper in 2010."

Here's the relevant excerpt from the interview mentioned above:

"Any standout gigs when you look back on Zeppelin?"

"I think what we did on [the CD release] How the West was Won — that 1972 gig — is pretty much a testament of how good it was. It would have been nice to have had a little more visual recordings, but there you go. That’s the conundrum of Led Zeppelin!"

Peter Perrett - Sweet Endeavor (2017)

Peter Perrett of the Only Ones reemerged in 2017 with his first solo LP How the West Was Won. Years of drug abuse and health problems did not seem to have taken much toll on his songwriting ability.

The future's already dead and gone

I realize now how very short life is, because I’ve got to be considered to be in the home stretch. But I won’t waste time on recriminations and regrets. And the same goes for my shortcomings and my own failures.
