OT: Best Live Album

[98Uconn]

4 Way Street, by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young... introduced to me freshman year.. 1993, New London First Floor in the Jungle.. still listen to it at least once a week..one of the life altering things I gained from my years at UConn. Helps my navigate all of the trials of life.. including updating this forum
to an obsessive level these days looking for that glimmer of hope that we’ll get back to what we once were.

1978....Little Feat... "waiting for Columbus".... the tower of power horns just put this one over the top.

Definitely my favorite live album. "Don't Bogart That Joint", "Mercenary Territory", "Fat Man in a Bath Tub". I saw them twice in concert, unfortunately after Lowell George had already passed.
