Best live album you've ever heard?

This is certainly inspired by the album that is kickin' it very LOUD here. I have many many live albums by every one from A-Z, but NONE come close to this one except Johnny Winter And Live, or the Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East. The Stones' Get Your Ya Ya's Out has to be the best live rock'n'roll album ever. God bless Mick Taylor. I live in a concrete block house, and it is still shakin'. If any of you know of a better live recording than these, please fill me in. Thanks, Tom

A second for Alice In Chains
I agree 100% with Boa2 this CD has an incrediable real presence in your system. If you forget about the two dimensionality this recording surpasses some good vinyl recordings.

Hi Boa2
Another live CD that puts magic in a dull digital world is Richard Thompsons' two letter words live 1994. The engineer gets the vocals right along with a beautiful acoustic guitar. I have the Neil Young Unplugged and that also is fine, BUT I think nothing beats the Alice In Chains Unplugged. Will look for your recomendations.
Thanks

Hey Boa2
Best place I saw RT is in NYC, we have a 170 yr old cathederal named St Ann. They put on a few limited shows and the acoustics were amazing. Hoped you enjoyed the 1,000 yrs show. If you can get a hold of Rts' bootlegs he has a double album called Columbia Gold. If you liked two letter words you will love this one. it was made in Italy which makes excellent boots ( something about the copyright laws ) and its a soundboard recording. Hope you can find it.
