Best live album you've ever heard?


This is certainly inspired by the album that is kickin' it very LOUD here. I have many many live albums by every one from A-Z, but NONE come close to this one except Johnny Winter And Live, or the Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East. The Stones' Get Your Ya Ya's Out has to be the best live rock'n'roll album ever. God bless Mick Taylor. I live in a concrete block house, and it is still shakin'. If any of you know of a better live recording than these, please fill me in. Thanks, Tom

Johnny Winter And Live: amazing stuff, The Who Live at Leeds: A real blast and intoxicating, The Allman Bro.s Band at the Filmore East: Awe inspiring rock and roll. Abso**ckinglutly!!!

But when I want to be transported to a different place there is only one live rock album for me: Jimi Hendrix's Band of Gypsys (the original on Capital), tight, powerful & soulful with a guitar player that's just on a different level. It still give me goose bumps to this day after nearly 35 years, now for me thats the real deal. (sonics could be better, but that could be said for a lot of the personal picks here)
IMHO
Stanley Clarke & Friends "Live At The Greek". Excellent recording. His 'friends' are Larry Carlton, Billy Cogham, Deron Johnson, & Najee
Band of Gypsy's by Jimi Hendrix- I purchased a Audio Tecnica 1/2 speed master and to this day it is the best sounding Live recording in my collection as far as RocknRoll is concerned.
For jazz it has to be my Mosiac boxed set on 150 gram Vinyl of Miles Davis The Complete BlackHawk Sessions. It even sounds better than the original pressing of Volume one i found in a box of records at the County Fair in Northern California in the summer of 83 for 35 cents..
Dead Can Dance's 'Toward the Within'. Lisa Girard is a fave of mine and her talents are much on display in that recording. I also like Jethro Tull's 'Bursting Out'.
Keith Jarrett's Whisper Not or At the Blue Note.

Or Bill Evans' Waltz for Debby or Sunday at the Village Vanguard
