Best Live Recording on LP

Someone started an interesting thread about generating a list of great live recordings on CD. However, that is the wrong type of media for my system. (My turntable sounds much better than my CD player).

Therefore, please suggest some really great live recordings on LP. (I listen to Rock mostly and some Jazz.)

Here are a couple of recordings (on LP) that did not appear on that list in the above mentioned thread, that I think have merit.

"Jazz at the Pawnshop" on the Propious (sic) label.

Louis Armstrong's "St. James Infirmary" on 12"/45rpm reissue on the Classic label (I think).

Neil Young's "Live Rust" on Japanese import.

Also, Guys (and Gals), here is a question for you: Is it worth paying the extra money for the 12"/45rpm version of Bill Evans "Waltz for Debbie"? Or does the 180g version sound nearly as good?

This is easy The Who Live at Leeds on Classic vinyl scratches pops and all. Driving bass the best drums, the best rock guitar, vocals and sound this equals Rock and Roll foot stomping music deluxe.
I would start here, no doubt theres many more i could mention.

Oilmanmojo if you get the chance give Pink Floyds Pulse on vinyl a road test. I also have Gdansk vinyl which is a fine recording for me it seems more of the music is on the slower side where as Pulse is full on hard driving Pink Floyd rock and roll music.
