Genesis - Second's Out with Three Sides Live running close behind
Pink Floyd - Pulse
U2 - Popmart (Made my own version of the Mexico City broadcast)
The resent half-speed mastered vinyl version of Second's out is a winner on my system. Also has the best version of Supper's Ready.
Cinema Show is also wonderful on this release.

Spoonful from Cream's Wheels of Fire. Some of the fiercest, most inspired solos Clapton ever wrought. The band rocks, but most of all it rolls. |
