In 1968, John Bonham, John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant formed Led Zeppelin, one of the most influential, innovative and successful groups in modern music, having sold more than 300 million albums worldwide. The band rose from the ashes of The Yardbirds, when Page brought in Plant, Bonham and Jones to tour as The New Yardbirds. In 1969, Led Zeppelin released its self-titled debut. It marked the beginning of a 12-year reign, during which the group was widely considered to be the biggest and most innovative rock band in the world. The Led Zeppelin reissue campaign got off to an remarkable start in June 2014 as deluxe editions of Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, and Led Zeppelin III debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart. The albums achieved similar international success with debuts near the top of the charts in more than a dozen territories, including Canada, France, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom.

The double vinyl version of Led Zeppelin III includes the original album (remastered) on one record with a second album of ‘companion audio’ which features seven previously unreleased studio outtakes from the album as well as three previously unheard compositions: Jennings Farm Blues (an instrumental forerunner of Bron-Yr-Aur Stomp), Bathroom Sound (an instrumental version of Out On The Tiles), and their take on the blues classics Keys To The Highway/Trouble In Mind. Both records will be pressed on 180g vinyl and will come in a tri-fold sleeve that includes the wheel and die-cut holes from the original LP sleeve. The 2CD edition contains the same bonus audio as the deluxe vinyl and also has a sleeve with the wheel and the die-cuts. Again, the Super Deluxe Edition box set gathers up all vinyl and CD content and adds hi-res downloads, a 70 page hardcover book and the high quality art print.

How the West Was Won - тройной концертный альбом британской группы Led Zeppelin, выпущенный Atlantic Records 27 мая 2003.

Диск выпущен в России на рубеже смены тысячелетий на росийской независимой фирме CD-Maximum. Два альбома, два шедевра родоначальников хард-рока Лед Зеппелин в одной упаковке. Оформление приближено к оригинальным LP, выпушеных на Atlantic в 1970 и 1973 годах. Приятно, что сохранено и качество звука.
