After the recent Zep live 3 disc set, Hendrix at Berkeley 2nd show, and Allman Brothers Fillmore sacd...at other legendary live shows with stellar sound that come to mind...waiting for the remaster of Hendrix's Live at winterland...SRV live maybe?
Also try Son Seals "Live and Burnin'" on Alligator. The first four tracks are pure smoke! The rest of the disk is quite good, too. Basically it's a set of power Chicago blues recorded in a smokey club in the 70s.
There is a live Luther Allison collection from his career that is killer.
Ronnie Earl, Blues Virtuoso in Europe isn't exactly agressive but it is some amazing live blues guitar playing.
He don't have a live album but if you get a chance to hear Tinsley Ellis live you best not miss it. His studio stuff smokes. Try Storm Warning
I saw Joe Bonamassa live this summer. Thnak goodness it was a free show. My brother described it best when he compared the playing to someone posing for his own bedroom mirror. Not my idea of a blues player.
Joe Bonamassa,"So It's Like That".Get the cd that has the bonus live DVD.The DVD is killer stuff!Also pick up Rory Gallagher, BBC Sessions.A great collection of material recorded in front of an audience and live in the studio.
