The BBC sessions set is really interesting for the crowd reaction to "Stairway to Heaven". I forget if this was the live debut of the song, but it was before Led Zeppelin IV had been released, so was the first time for the audience hearing the song. At the end, there is a strange, stunned silence (who wasn't left breathless the first time they heard that song back in the day?), then followed by thunderous applause. Also, really good music overall on this set if you like the group. Much better than 'The Song Remains The Same'.

I do believe the Zep has sold -

Different strokes here, but I prefer the Song Remains the Same (particularly the new version with extra material).

edit - and "How the West was Won".

'How The West Was Won' is stunning. Amazing sound quality for that vintage of live material, plus strong performances. The remastered/expanded 'The Song Remains The Same' is a big improvement over the original in all regards, agreed.
