So much live Dead.  I started with Dick’s picks and now Dave’s picks.  A new live CD set every 3 months.  

Bruce Springsteen Piece De Resistance bootleg (Capitol Theater, Passaic, NJ 9/19/78)

Bill Evans Sunday at the Village Vanguard

 

Jazz albums would take too much space, so will post a few albums that are perhaps less widely known, but excellent.  I have listened them when I was a little young boy...

@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.
