Best LIVE album?
Looking for some recommendations for some live music and wondered what everyone considered to be the best live album?
It doesn't matter what style of music, but preferably a CD from one concert as opposed to some that get released that feature several tracks from various shows. What's everyones favorite? |
Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore
Neil Young Live at Massey Hall From Here to Eternity-The Clash Stop Making Sense-Talking Heads Eels-Live at Town Hall Bob Marley-Live at the Roxy |

(I only know about it because I started that one. But it's long overdue to discuss Live Music here again!) |
Obvious answer:
The Who: Live at Leeds. Especially the extended version with the full live Tommy. Other classics: Led Zeppelin: How the West was Won Greatful Dead: Dozin' at the Knick Joy Division: Les bain Douches Talking Heads: the Name of this band More recently: My Morning Jacket: Okonokos Daft Punk: Alive 2007 |
Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore

Judas Priest - Unleashed in The East
Scorpions - World Wide Live Alice Cooper - Fistful of Alice Heaven & Hell - Live At Radio City Music Hall |
Roxy Music - Viva!
Foghat - Live Pat Travers - Go For What You Know Roger Waters - In The Flesh Rush - A Show Of Hands |
"Stop Making Sense" immediately came to mind. That and it's THE best live concert film I've ever seen. But a very close runner up is Depeche Mode's "101".

I've always found that my favorite live albums tend to come from electronic acts.
Underworld's "Everything Everything" and especially Kraftwerk's "Minimum-Maximum" are absolutely essential. The Bjork Livebox is also a great listen, but if you don't have the money for the whole thing right away, "Homogenic Live" is the standout disc for me. I've always been annoyed that they cut up the Shepherd's Bush show so bad for the "Post Live" disc, so I have a hard time reccomending that one over the live DVD from the same show, which is amazing. |
