List some of your favorite live Jazz recordings

@stuartk  yes, the new version is on vinyl and the review I read suggested it was superior to the 45 version in the Riverside box set (which I own and love.)

Here's a link to the review:

Ah. OK -- I'm strictly CDs. 

Here’s mine. Mostly fusion and avant-garde.

Don’t get me wrong, I love most of the post-bop recordings most of you are listing, too. I just didn’t want to be redundant listing them again.

Mahavishnu Orchestra - Between Nothingness and Eternity (1973)

The Art Ensemble of Chicago - Urban Bushman (1980)

Allan Holdsworth - I.O.U. Live (1997)

Pharaoh Sanders - Live... (1982)

Anthony Braxton - Quartet Santa Cruz (1993)

Weather Report - 8:30

Jean Luc Ponty - Live (1979)

Oregon - Live at Yoshi’s (2002)

Steve Coleman and the Five Elements - Live at the Village Vanguard I and II (2018)

Cecil Taylor - Live in Bologna (1987)

Keith Jarrett - Koln Concerts

Ralph Towner - Solo Concert (1980)

Tim Berne / Science Friction - Sublime and Science Friction Live (2003)

Pekka Pohjola Heavy Jazz - Live Helsinki and Tokyo (1995)

Let me add, that none of my choices were made due to sound quality, or audiophile cred.

They were all chosen for performance and musical content. 

Some of them do happen to have great sound quality, too. But that was not a factor in choosing them. 

Take away my "audiophile card" if you must for my possible blasphemy.
