OT: Best Live Album

[huskiesNhoos]

Hell freezes over, Eagles

 

[huskyblooz]

UFO, Strangers in the Night.
Buffett, You Had to be There
BoDeans, Joe Dirt Car
J.Geils, Blow Your Face Out
Billy Joel, Songs in the Attic

 

[Mike Honcho]

Santana - Live at the Fillmore 1968

 

[Madmannsucks]

I suppose the album that had by far the most profound effect on me when I was a child and changed the way I thought was Pete Seeger...We shall overcome.

 

[Skiblets]

Dire Straits - Alchemy. The version of Sultans of Swing on this live album still blows me away

 

[HuskyHawk]

Some Great ones here. I’m on board with:
Frampton Comes Alive (saw him recently, still great live)
Allman Bros. - Fillmore
Little Feat - Waiting for Columbus
Kinks - One for the Road

I’d add Cheap Trick - Budokahn (they were the double bill with Frampton when I saw him)

I suppose the album that had by far the most profound effect on me when I was a child and changed the way I thought was Pete Seeger...We shall overcome.

Yeah he was a kid then too.

Steve Marriot and Mark Farner 2 of the most prolific hard rock lead singers, great voices from yesteryear.

 

[Vuce]

Bob Seger - Nine Tonight

 

[huskyjawz]

Ramones: It's Alive

12.31.77 London

 

[Bezzz]

Steve Marriot was an incredible singer and performer. I saw him live at Dillon Stadium in '73. Couple of good opening acts ---J. Geils Band and Peter Frampton.

 

[DogBoy]

Wheels of Fire

 

[Huskybass]

Live Dead-Grateful Dead

That's the one with Branford Marsalis playing on Eyes of the World. Very nice

 

[uconnphil2016]

Neil Young--Live at Massey Hall

 

[August_West]

That's the one with Branford Marsalis playing on Eyes of the World. Very nice

No it's not. That would be "without a net"

Live dead is from 69 and is the last word on psychedelia

Both great albums. Very different bands though

 

[4UConn]

Weld...Neil Young & Crazy Horse

 

[Huskybass]

No it's not. That would be "without a net"

Live dead is from 69 and is the last word on psychedelia

Both great albums. Very different bands though

Correct. I screwed up. I am listening to Branford now, so it's all good.

Branford awesome. Sweet guy too.

Dark Star. Masterpiece that never get's old.

[Captbluefin]

That's the one with Branford Marsalis playing on Eyes of the World. Very nice

The one with Branfor Marsalis is “Live without a net”

And that “Eyes of the world” is from Nassau and totally mind blowing and I was blessed to be there.

Was at that concert in Hartford - I went because my two favorite albums at that space in time (besides The GD and Allman Bros) were Rock'n the Fillmore and Full House
It was 4th of July Weekend and I remember bs'n my parents about being invited to a friends party to go

 

[pepband99]

And:
stevie ray vaughan albert king in session

1) that’s not really “live”
2) that album drives me nuts. It should be an all-timer, but King’s guitar is out of tune the whole time. It’s agonizing to anyone with an ear for tuning.

 

[NowInStorrs]

Gonna go with either Hooverphonic - With Orchestra or Above and Beyond - Acoustic.
