Not that much into live albums (except my large collection of Grateful Dead box sets, but that's a whole nother thing), but I'll throw in a vote for UFO 'Strangers In The Night' as well, with an honorable mention to Blue Oyster Cult's 'Extraterrestrial Live' double album, which I like even better than 'Some Enchanted Evening'....

@bassbuyer - they can really add up! I got all the Dicks Picks, but I had to pass on ol' Dave. What I do love are those annual deluxe boxes they put out; I've got every one of those since the first one from the 'Live Dead' Fillmore shows... This year's 1978 one was spectacular; just as good a year as '77 I think, but a bit less spacey and somewhat more rockin' out. |
