This has probably been done done before but here goes my top five
1 The Allman Brothers Band Fillmore East
2 Derek and the Dominos Live at The Filmore East
3 Humble Pie Live at The Fillmore East
4 The Who Live At Leeds
5 The Rolling Stones Get Your Ya Ya's Out
128x128lenmc2964

Oh boy, this is a tough one for sure.

I'll add mine in no particular order of preference

The Kinks - One for the Road

Kiss  - Alive 1

Peter Frampton  - Comes Alive

Frank Zappa  - Live at the Fillmore East 1971

Yes - Songs

To bad most live albums are such crappy recordings IMHO

Lots of great picks folks and I would only add: Supertramp’s “Paris” and with honorable mention going to Porcupine Tree’s DVD “Anesthetize, Live In Tilburg”
My favorites -
1. Allman Brothers Band Live at Fillmore East (ABB at their finest)
2. Ten Years After - Recorded Live (tied with the next two for best performance)
3. Humble Pie Live at the Fillmore East
4. The Who - Live at Leeds
5. Little Feat - Waiting for Columbus (best recording of the lot...)

A very close #5 would be Rainbow Live On Stage
